Are there any golf shoes that can also be worn off the course casually?
The best I've seen that would fit the bill are the new Kikkor Golf shoes, I don't know if they are out in stores yet but they definitely break the traditional mold if you're into the skate shoe look.

I wondered the same thing some time ago. It was always normal after a round of golf to go out for drinks or dinner. Unfortunately, the best answer is take an extra pair of shoes with you. That's only because a good pair of golf shoes have spikes. Walking on any hard surface with spikes is awkward and runs the risk of breaking off a spike (those things aren't cheap if you replace them often).
Besides, the last thing you want to do is sacrifice your golf game for a bit of convenience. Do like all the others out there...change shoes at the car.
If your looking for a traditional golf shoe most all manufacturer offer spikeless shoes for professionals. It's generally what your clubhouse pros wear. Do a search for spikeless golf shoe or go to golflocker.com
First, why would you want to compromise your golf game for the sake of shoes you can wear off the course? I sometimes wear my shoes (Puma Tours) into the club house for a drink post game but I switch them up before getting into the car. If I ‘had’ to wear the same shoes I’d probably look for something like a cross country running shoe (a running shoe with more knobby grips) that I would get traction on the course and not worry about destroying driving and walking etc…
Otherwise, invest in a nice pair of flip flops and a shoe bag for your golf shoes. Women appreciate a guy who's aware of these things.
Ecco- These are the one's that Freddy Couples wore at Augusta last week. Check them out

No. And why would you want to wear your golf shoes "casually"?
Shoes with two-tone leather (like golf shoes) are called "spectators", if you like the look and want to find it in a shoe without spikes.
Puma , C hoppers are exactly what you are looking for. They look like an old school sneaker and they come with caps for the spikes.
