How to Keep Debris From Sticking to My Soft Spike Golf Shoes

Though spikes on your golf shoes help you to maintain your stance when swinging the club, picking up some debris as you walk the course is almost unavoidable. At the end of your game, you might be carrying around leaves and dirt from the first hole. Local and online sporting goods stores carry weatherproofing sprays to deter debris from sticking to the spikes of golf shoes during your game, as well as brushes designed to remove debris from shoes.

Instructions

- 1
  Remove any dirt or debris from the bottom of your shoes and allow them to dry. Spray a water-based weatherproofing spray on the bottom of each shoe or use a protective weatherproofing wax. Clean and respray or rewax before each outing.
- 2
  Watch your step. Cleats secure to the ground, so walking through the woods or through a pile of leaves or dirt will likely cause debris to stick to the bottom of your shoes.
- 3
  Purchase a golf shoe brush, which is a small, hard-bristled brush made specifically to clean the bottom of a shoe. Move the brush up and down and then side to side to remove debris during or after your game. Use the brush as often as necessary.
