Ecco is renowned for producing high-performing golf shoes and has an ability to blend premium materials with cutting-edge ergonomics, creating a reputation for out-of-the-box comfort. The Street Vibe is a new model for 2026, so I was keen to find out if it would live up to my expectations as one of the best women's spikeless golf shoes of the year.
These shoes really live up to their 'Street' name. I love the beige suede mudguard, the technical term for the protective detailing around the toe, which also wraps around the heel counter. This area is highlighted at the top with a pop of pinkish-purple that perfectly matches the color of the sole. It all adds to a modern, trainer-like aesthetic that makes the shoe incredibly easy to style, both on and off the course.
Last year I tested Ecco’s 720 Street shoe, and while it provided comfort, performance, and versatility, the Street Vibe has a much lower profile. It feels sleeker and more grounded, and at £120, the quality of the technology and comfort packed into this shoe makes it great value.
Despite the relaxed look, the technical side of the sole is impressive. The new outsole is inspired by the versatility of the E-DTS NET design, which is engineered to offer multi-directional traction and durability.
Even though the profile is low, the grip is impressive. I felt completely secure over the ball and grounded throughout my swing, yet the shoe still provided all the walking comfort you’d expect from a high-end sneaker.
While I haven't had the chance to test these in wet conditions yet, and I personally see these as the perfect summer shoe for those fast, it does feature an ECCO-TEX waterproof membrane to keep your feet dry if the weather does take a turn.
Most golfers have a favorite brand of golf shoe, it’s like having a comfy pair of slippers! I don’t have problem feet, so I generally find comfort in most golf shoes, like the FootJoy Pro/SL and G/Fore’s G.112 Stripe Kiltie, but the Street Vibe tops it for me.
I particularly like the ultra-soft tongue and the plush padding around the heel, which makes them feel broken-in from the very first wear. A clever touch is the removable performance insole because if you find you need a bit more room or a slightly different feel, you can remove the extra comfort layer for added width.
Ultimately, the modern female golfer who values street style as much as performance will love how this shoe goes with almost anything in her wardrobe. It is elegant, fun, and allows you to move from the course to beyond with complete ease.
