Upon the arrival of the TRUE Linkswear All Day Knit Four at my door, I had to do a double-take. These didn't resemble golf shoes. They looked like something I'd throw on for a coffee run or a casual weekend stroll through the neighborhood. And honestly? That's exactly the point.
Pulling them out of the box, the initial thing that struck me was the weight, or rather, the lack of it. These things are featherlight, almost suspiciously so. The knit mesh upper has this athletic shoe vibe that immediately feels approachable, while the suede-like accents around the heel and toe add just enough visual interest to keep them from looking too basic. I went with the navy/cream colorway, which gives off a clean, classic aesthetic that shifts seamlessly from the course to anywhere else life takes you. For a shoe that's supposed to do everything, the All Day Knit Four undeniably looks the part. TRUE specifically crafted these for sunrise to sunset use, making them ideal for golfers who want one shoe that handles their entire day.
Step into unmatched comfort with TRUE Linkswear All Day Knit Four golf shoes, the pinnacle of breathable, versatile footwear blending sock-like fit, 4-way stretch knit, and PGA-proven All Day traction for seamless on-course grip and off-course style.
Let's talk about what TRUE Linkswear has built their reputation on: comfort. I've tested dozens of golf shoes over the years, from stiff leather traditionalists to squishy foam experiments that felt like walking on marshmallows. The All Day Knit Four falls into its own category entirely, and it's taken directly from their best-selling Knit 2 design that golfers have been raving about for good reason.
The 4-way stretch knit upper is the star of the show here. It moves with your foot in a way that most golf shoes don't. You know that awkward feeling when you're addressing the ball and your shoe feels like it's fighting against your natural stance? That doesn't happen with these. The knit material provides structure where you need it while still allowing your foot to do what feet are supposed to do, move naturally, and flex through your swing.
But here's where TRUE really earned my respect: the Comfort Foam Heel Lock system. This isn't just marketing speak. There's a stabilizing memory foam base topped with an ultra-soft layer that effectively cradles your heel in place. During my initial round, I kept waiting for that familiar heel slip that plagues so many lightweight shoes. It never came. My heel stayed locked in position from the first tee to the eighteenth green, and my feet felt fresher than they typically do after a full round.
The tongue system deserves a special mention too. TRUE redesigned it specifically to accommodate golfers with higher insteps (guilty as charged), and it genuinely makes getting these shoes on and off easier while eliminating that annoying pressure point on the top of your foot. It's one of those small details that shows the designers actually play golf and understand what we deal with out there.
I've become something of a convert regarding minimal-drop golf shoes. For years, I played in traditional designs with significant heel elevation, never questioning whether there was a better way. Then I started experimenting with flatter profiles, and my viewpoint changed completely.
The All Day Knit Four features a 6mm drop, which TRUE describes as providing a "flat feel for ground connection without excessive heel height." In practice, this translates to a remarkably natural stance throughout your swing. You feel connected to the ground in a way that higher-heeled shoes simply don't allow. During my testing rounds, I noticed improved balance, particularly on uneven lies where ground feel matters most.
This zero-drop philosophy supports natural foot movement, and TRUE has clearly welcomed this approach across their lineup. If you've never tried a minimal-drop golf shoe, be prepared for an adjustment period. Your calves might let you know they're working a bit differently for the initial few rounds. But once you acclimate, going back to traditional designs feels almost restrictive. The virtually pillow-soft sole combined with the breathable mid-foot structure creates this sensation of your feet being free to move while still feeling protected from the terrain beneath them.
For golfers who walk their rounds (and you should be walking your rounds), this ground feel becomes even more crucial over 18 holes. The All Day Knit Four delivered consistent comfort and connection, whether I was on the tee box, navigating a cart path, or trudging through the rough searching for an errant drive. Considering that golfers can walk 8-10 kilometers during a typical round, this natural movement support becomes essential for preventing fatigue and maintaining comfort throughout your game.
Here's where I had my biggest concerns going into this review. Lightweight knit shoes that prioritize comfort often sacrifice grip, and I've learned that lesson the hard way on dewy morning rounds where inferior outsoles turned me into a slip-and-slide act. The All Day Knit Four puts those fears to rest, though perhaps not in the way you'd expect.
TRUE equipped these shoes with their All Day outsole, the same one used in their PGA TOUR-winning All Day Ripstop V2 model. That lineage matters. This isn't some afterthought outsole slapped on a lifestyle shoe; it's proven performance technology that's been validated at the highest levels of competition.
The Cross Life Tread pattern is designed to adjust across diverse activities, which aligns perfectly with TRUE's lifestyle-first philosophy. On the course, I found the grip to be more than satisfactory for comfortable rounds. We're not talking about aggressive spikeless lugs that'll leave divot marks on your grandmother's porch, but rather a versatile tread that provides confident footing without being obnoxious about it.
That said, I want to be upfront about expectations. If you're looking for optimal traction in extremely wet conditions or on steep, dewy slopes at your local mountain course, more aggressive spikeless options exist. The All Day Knit Four delivers grip that's appropriate for its intended use case, casual rounds, walking courses, and adapting to off-course activities. It does this job exceptionally well without trying to be something it's not.
During my testing, I played rounds in varying conditions, including dry fairways, slightly damp morning grass, and even some cart path walking. The traction remained consistent and reliable throughout. I never had a moment where I felt genuinely unstable, though I also wasn't attempting any heroic shots from severe sidehill lies in soaking wet rough.
Living in a region where summer golf means battling humidity and heat, breathability has become one of my non-negotiable requirements in golf footwear. Too many shoes trap heat like a sauna, leaving you with that uncomfortable, swampy feeling by the back nine. The All Day Knit Four addresses this concern better than almost any golf shoe I've tested.
The lightweight knit upper acts like a built-in ventilation system. Air flows through the material naturally, and TRUE has engineered the mid-foot structure to optimize this airflow without compromising support. During a particularly brutal July round where temperatures pushed into the high 90s, my feet stayed remarkably comfortable. Not cool exactly, we're not defying physics here, but comfortable in a way that allowed me to focus on my game rather than counting the minutes until I could kick my shoes off.
This breathability does come with a trade-off worth mentioning. These shoes are not designed for wet conditions. TRUE doesn't market them as waterproof, and they shouldn't. The same mesh construction that keeps your feet cool will absolutely let moisture in if you're playing through morning dew, after rainfall, or in consistently damp conditions. This isn't a design flaw; it's a design choice. If you need all-weather performance, TRUE makes other models specifically for that purpose. The All Day Knit Four is your warm-weather, fair-conditions friend.
For golfers who primarily play during the warmer months or who live in dry climates, this breathability becomes a massive selling point. Combined with the ultra-lightweight construction, you've got a shoe that almost disappears on your feet during long rounds. I've worn these for 27-hole days without the foot fatigue I typically experience in heavier, more structured footwear.
Here's the thing about golf shoes that nobody in the industry wants to admit: most of us don't want to carry around dedicated footwear that only works on the course. We want shoes that can handle our actual lives, the quick nine after work, the vacation round at a resort course, the casual Saturday morning loop followed by errands and lunch with friends.
TRUE Linkswear has built their entire brand around this philosophy, and the All Day Knit Four might be their purest expression of it yet. These shoes genuinely work everywhere. I wore them during testing not just for golf rounds but also to the grocery store, on neighborhood walks, and during a weekend trip where I needed versatile footwear that could handle multiple activities. Nobody looked at my feet and thought, "Oh, he's wearing golf shoes." They just look like clean, modern sneakers that happen to perform on the course.
This versatility makes the All Day Knit Four particularly appealing for specific scenarios. Twilight rounds where you're heading straight to dinner afterward? Perfect. Par-3 course loops with the family? Ideal. Travel golf where luggage space is at a premium? You won't find a better solution. These are the shoes you throw in your bag knowing they'll work for virtually any situation.
The design walks a careful line between athletic performance and casual style. The modern silhouette combines flexibility with just enough structural support to remain course-appropriate, while the available colorways (navy/cream, grey, and white) complement everything from golf shorts to jeans. TRUE has effectively created a shoe that eliminates the need to change footwear between activities, which sounds simple but represents a genuine quality-of-life improvement for busy golfers.

No, the TRUE Linkswear All Day Knit Four golf shoes aren't waterproof. They're designed with a breathable, 4-way stretch knit upper that prioritizes airflow and comfort over moisture protection. While they're weather resistant, that doesn't mean they'll keep your feet dry in wet conditions. You'll want to save these for dry or warm-weather rounds. If you need waterproof protection, check out TRUE Linkswear's other models that include waterproof warranties.
You can choose from five colorway options for the All Day Knit Four: Grey Day, Black, Charcoal, Varsity Navy, and Vintage White. All colors are available in both men's and women's models with standard sizing. There aren't any limited or exclusive color releases, so you'll have full access to every option when ordering online. Each colorway matches the shoe's versatile design for both on-course and casual wear.
Your TRUE linkswear order typically arrives in 5–8 business days with standard ground shipping. If you need your shoes faster, you can choose 2 Day Air shipping (2–3 business days) for $25 per pair or Express shipping (1–2 business days) for $55 per pair.

You can absolutely wear these golf shoes off the course. They're specifically designed for versatility, blending an athletic silhouette with a casual sneaker look that works in different settings. You'll find them perfect for running errands, post-round activities, and everyday wear. The spikeless design lets you walk on any surface, while the machine-washable feature makes cleaning easy after non-golf excursions.
You can return new, unworn TRUE Linkswear products within 30 days of receipt. Keep tags attached and don't wash or wear items.

You're also entitled to one free exchange for size or color changes within 30 days.
So, is the TRUE Linkswear All Day Knit Four for everyone? Absolutely not. If you're a competitive player who needs maximum traction in all conditions, or if you regularly play early morning rounds through heavy dew, you'll want something with waterproof construction and more aggressive grip. Those golfers should look at TRUE's other products or consider different brands entirely.
But if you're looking for a shoe that genuinely works for your actual life, one that handles casual rounds beautifully, keeps your feet comfortable during long walking rounds in warm weather, and shifts seamlessly to post-round activities without making you feel like you're wearing athletic equipment, the All Day Knit Four is difficult to beat. For vacation golf, twilight rounds, par-3 courses, and everyday versatility, I'd put these at the top of my recommendation list.
TRUE Linkswear continues to carve out their own lane in golf footwear, and the All Day Knit Four represents their philosophy executed at a high level. They've created a shoe that understands how most golfers actually live, not just how we play. Sometimes, that matters more than any technical specification or performance metric. These shoes get that, and they deliver on the promise.
