In depth

The FootJoy Tour Preferred golf glove is built for serious players who demand a soft, glove-like fit that molds to the hand almost instantly. Crafted from premium cabretta leather, it delivers a supple texture that feels broken-in from the very first swing while maintaining durability through repeated rounds. This leather also excels at wicking away moisture, ensuring that grip pressure and feel remain consistent even during humid conditions or long sweaty rounds. FootJoy sources this leather carefully to maintain a soft touch without sacrificing the strength needed to withstand the torque and friction generated by an aggressive swing.

What truly sets the Tour Preferred apart is its focus on tour-level feel and precision. The glove features a snug, tailored fit that hugs the hand without feeling restrictive, giving golfers the confidence to maintain a secure hold on the club throughout their swing. A neoprene wrist closure with a strategically placed pull tab allows for a customizable, snug fit that keeps the glove in place, reducing any slipping or bunching that can throw off a golfer's grip consistency. The seams are designed to sit away from pressure points, so players enjoy a smoother, more natural connection between hand and club, which is especially valuable for those who rely on subtle feedback to fine-tune their swing.

Trusted by many touring professionals, this glove has earned its reputation as a staple in serious golfers' bags. It's designed to perform consistently across a range of weather conditions, from dry summer rounds to slightly damp mornings, without compromising on feel or control. The Tour Preferred is offered in both left and right-hand versions for players of all dominant hands, and its range of sizes ensures a precise fit for nearly every golfer. Whether used in competitive tournament play or casual weekend rounds, this glove reflects FootJoy's commitment to blending performance, comfort, and durability into a single accessory that enhances every golfer's connection to their equipment.

Best glove I've used

The grip and feel are unmatched. I've tried several brands but this one gives me the most confidence on full swings and chips alike.

Great quality, runs small

Had to size up from my usual glove size, but once I did, the fit was perfect. Very soft leather and holds up well after a dozen rounds.

Tom Richardson2024-01-10
Tour-level performance

You can tell the difference in quality immediately. The leather is buttery soft yet durable. Worth every penny for serious golfers.

Dave Whitmore2023-12-05
Reliable and comfortable

Great glove for all-weather play. Only wish it came in more color options, but performance-wise it's top notch.
