    Adidas tour 360-best golf shoes hands down for me, very comfy and great in the wet!

    Tried them on today and felt very comfortable but heard from someone else they were poor on the wet. Also sceptical about the brand after the last experience

    Ecco Bioms are class, but pricey. Like wearing slippers on the golf course!!

    Comfort is well and good but what are they like in the wet. Nothing as bad as wet feet for 4 hours

    Ive had 2 pairs, theyre great in the wet, i got soaked to the bone sunday and feet were dry, up to you anyway

    Powerbands are not Tour 360s man

    They are yak leather and supposed to be good in the wet , but if im honest ,theyre so nice i wear my old ones if i think its goin to be a wet round , so untested is the answer.

    True they're not but they have the same type of material. The uppers all cracked after a couple of months. Good to hear positive feedback on them though. They were a serioudly comfortable fit

    I have had 3 pairs of these and every single one of them let in water and were terrible in the wet. Have had Nike and Puma since and are different class IMO. Also had a pair of Footjoy and couldn't fault them.

    Adidas win on style over a lot of shoes but I would never consider them if it was to be a wet round of golf.

    Yeah I gave them the benefit of doubt 3 times as I really liked the styling, mate of mine who works in the golf shop had same issue, personal experiences differ i guess

    Jukebox stay away from the 360s the heal falls to bits in them plus they let ,I gave the foot joy sports ago and never looked back,so good in fact I got apair in red aswell ,a bit pricy at €129 .but worth it

    Adidas Samba's ��

    Normally wear Footjoy Icons which are the most comfortable shoe I have ever worn. Won a pair of Adidas 360's over the weekend but worried now after hearing they let in water
