Do you like them? they better be comfortable as hell to be charging $200+ for a pair.

I love them. The insert has these little bumps that make it feel like you're getting a little massage with each step.

shite!!!! Well, there goes more of my money.

Just bought the Adidas S2G Boa shoes at PGA Superstore. They are awesome. Says a lot when you can buy a pair and immediately play a few rounds without any issues. They are super comfortable right out of the box.

Idk why this is downvoted.

I’ve said this to every golf store sales person, etc. I’ve even written some shoe companies.

I’ve golfed barefoot plenty of times and still shot my usual scores (it’s actually quite enjoyable). Regular trainers were fine. Golf shoes add a little traction, and are obviously more or less required at a nicer course.

But I can’t figure out why nobody just takes a trainer and throws some soft spikeless knobs on it. Like adidas should literally take an ultra boost and add a new sole. Whichever company does that first will make the most money. It’s stupid. Whatever the BS waterproofing standards. Who gives a ****! My running shoes are good enough to go for a jog when it’s damp out if needed, they can handle some tightly mowed grass just fine. Not to mention, I’d wager that a majority of golfers don’t even go to the golf course when it’s wet or raining, that’s why the course is always emptied on those days. So again, we’re crapping on the golf shoe market of comfort in lieu of a small majority of people who want uncomfortable hot nonsense on their feet because they’re afraid their precious toes may get damp.

Like I told the guy at the store anyway. I live in California. It’s sunny and 65-80 like 95% of the year. I don’t need a ****** waterproof, hot, clunky shoe. Take my running shoe, put a spikeless sole on the bottom. If I’m going to play when it’s wet or feel those type of shoes won’t be adequate, I’ll wear a “standard” pair

That was a long rambling post friend. I live in Texas and if you play In the morning it is very often dewy and the grass is wet. Water proof are very helpful. I have foot joy pro S and they are great

I feel like you would have to get the heel/toe drop right though.

I like waterproof shoes.

I often play and walk in the dew soaked mornings.

Wet feet can lead to fungal infection.

I change socks and shoes for bonus 9.

The foot joy superlites are my favorites.

Squairz...2 pairs most comfortable show right out of the box I've ever worn.
