Thick-soled shoes are popular for a reason: They’re really comfortable. Sizable midsoles absorb the strike from each foot plant, making the impact of long efforts easier on your joints.

If you love the thick midsoles of your day-to-day shoes and want the same feel on the golf course, here are four to try.
