TRUE linkswear TRUE OG3 Pro
The TRUE linkswear OG3 Pro is a modern reinterpretation of the shoe that launched the brand into the golf footwear space over a decade ago. Originally introduced as the OG (Original Golf) shoe, it set the tone for TRUE’s mission to create footwear that puts comfort, natural motion, and walking performance at the forefront. TRUE’s founders, professional golfer Ryan Moore and his brother Jason, set out in 2009 to design shoes that broke away from the overly structured and uncomfortable options dominating the market. With a focus on wide toe boxes, zero-drop platforms, and flexible soles, TRUE quickly earned a reputation for making golf shoes that felt more like athletic sneakers than traditional golf footwear.
Now in its third generation, the OG3 Pro refines this legacy by blending the foundational elements of the original OG line with performance-focused upgrades. With added waterproofing, enhanced traction, and a more durable upper, the OG3 Pro is engineered to meet the needs of serious walkers who demand all-day comfort without sacrificing stability or style. It’s a natural evolution for a brand that has always prioritized feel and function from the ground up.
The Looks
In keeping with TRUE linkswear’s minimalist design ethos, the OG3 Pro delivers a clean, athletic look that feels right at home both on and off the course. Rather than chasing flashy trends, TRUE opts for subtle refinement. The shoe’s profile designed to accommodate the natural shape of the foot while maintaining a streamlined appearance.
While the leather upper offers durability and waterproof protection, it also gives the OG3 Pro a more polished look. The branding is kept minimal, staying true to TRUE’s philosophy that performance and comfort should do the talking. There are also clever touches like the rubber water droplets on the heel tab and the T treads on the sole.
The OG3 Pro is available in four versatile colorways: Glacier White, Pro Black, PNW, and Nine Iron Grey. Each offering a neutral, wearable palette that appeals to a wide range of golfers. Whether you prefer the classic monochrome of Glacier White or the earthy tones of PNW, the shoe transitions seamlessly from the first tee to post-round errands.
Comfort Level
Comfort is a standout feature of the TRUE linkswear TRUE OG3 Pro. The zero-drop WanderLux midsole promotes a natural walking experience, reducing strain during long rounds. In my opinion, this is the most noticeable the zero-drop has felt in a TRUE linkswear shoe in a long time, and is easily the closest to the original. (I even threw on an old pair to verify that!) Along those lines, I won’t try and convince you that the toe box is as wide as those original shoes, but they are definitely comfortably wide and should accommodate various foot shapes, enhancing overall comfort. Additionally, the shoe’s lightweight construction and flexible materials contribute to a “broken-in” feel right out of the box, minimizing the need for a break-in period.
I feel that if you were a big fan of the very original TRUE linkswear Originals, the OG3 Pro has the comfort level you’ve been waiting for from TRUE linkswear.
On-Course Performance
The TRUE OG3 Pro is built for golfers who walk and want natural, stable movement on the golf course. A core feature is TRUE linkswear’s zero-drop platform, which keeps your heel and forefoot level. This promotes better balance, posture, and ground feel, especially useful with weight shifts during the swing. Players often report improved connection to the ground and a more athletic stance compared to traditional elevated-heel shoes. Like many things with golf shoes, a lot this will come down to personal preferences and how you respond to this “stance”.
Traction comes from a durable TPU spikeless outsole with an aggressive lug pattern. It grips well on firm turf, dry grass, and pretty much any course condition. While spikeless designs can be less grippy on slick, wet lies, the OG3 Pro holds up better than most in this category. A close look at the tread will show one of the more aggressive patterns TRUE linkswear has ever used which closely resembles a soft spike. It really makes a great difference in wet conditions.
The leather upper adds structure while staying flexible. It supports the foot through rotation but doesn’t feel stiff or restrictive. Again, the OG3 Pro allows for a very natural range of motion, but you still feel supported.
Final Thoughts – TRUE linkswear OG Cush Golf Shoe
TRUE linkswear successfully bridged the past and present with the TRUE OG3 Pro, delivering a shoe that honors the brand’s roots while meeting the demands of today’s walking golfer. It brings back the natural comfort and grounded feel that made TRUE linkswear a cult favorite in its early days. With modern refinements like improved traction, waterproofing, and a more structured upper, the OG3 Pro is flat out a much more well-rounded golf shoe. Whether you’ve been chasing that original TRUE feel for years, or are just looking for a shoe that prioritizes natural motion, the OG3 Pro is worth serious consideration.
