First I must mention that these run true to size. I ordered a 1/2 size larger based on reviews and Amazon’s size recommendation and they were too large. I’ve always wore Footjoys but decided to give this brand a try. Overall, they were comfortable. I did like the thinner, slicker tongue and the way it flipped forward. This made tightening the laces and shoe removal much easier. But wonder if some of that attributed to heal slippage. Footjoys have a notched heal. I read reviews that said these did. Not sure if New Balance changed the design since those reviews but they DO NOT have a notched heel. I feel the notched heel prevents heal slippage and provides better heel support. I walk eighteen three times a week so good support is imperative especially around the heel. The uppers are 100% synthetic material. I am concerned how well the will breathe. I will be returning them. I also bought a pair of Striker V3. They did not have a notched heel but did have the traditional padded tongue. I had very little heel slippage. I haven’t worn them for eighteen yet but will soon discover how well they breathe.

I bought these because the price was right, they were water proof and the cleats were interchangeable, I always wear adidas so first time wearing NB, they were a little tighter then I was used to, even after breaking them in, I’d say go a 1/2 size larger, cleats were easy to change and they were in fact water proof, I like em they look good and do what they say they’ll do. At this price point I was very happy with my choice.

Shoe is light weight and comfortable but tongue construction of a lower quality at this price point .

I have a lot of trouble purchasing shoes due to Neuropathy in my right foot. These shoes have a very thin tongue which gives me room for my foot without crushing down on my instep. If you experience too much pressure down on your feet, yet want a secure, supportive golf shoe try this model. I wore right out of the box without issue and my feet were happy when the 18 holes were finished.New Balance hit it out of the park for my high-volume feet.
