What we say:
As we've grown accustomed to, this Royal Albartross golf shoe is pure class. The RA Northcote oozes style and quality. Let's start with the upper, which is made of premium Italian Nappa leather. It just feels completely different from other leather and microfibers. Along with that incredibly soft feeling, this luxury leather affords the highest quality, which basically means this shoe will last for a long, long time. Which is good, because it certainly isn't cheap. In our honest opinion, while you do get the upmost luxury and quality with the Northcote, we do feel that there are plenty of other similar golf shoes out there that are a better deal. That being said, most patrons who can afford this golf shoe aren't overly concerned with the price tag, concerning themselves rather with the essence of casual class. The overall golf-specific performance of the Northcote isn't anything outstanding, but it for sure gets the job done.
