But as soon as I put on the shoes, I feel its comfort and breathability. By the way, the shoe is treated for weather- and perspiration-resistance so that feet stay dry inside. Speaking of inside, there’s a removable, antimicrobial inlay sole for cushioning. On the outside, there’s a wrap up the side of the midsole, enhancing support during the swing. And the nubbed and durable TPU outsole gives great traction and flexibility. Although not for a full golf round, I wore them around the house and then to hit golf balls. First thing I noticed was how comfortable they are. The second is just how good the grip is on the turf. The footing was solid all throughout my swings. No slipping on cement, either. Forget my initial hesitation on the looks. I now find these very attractive.
