They look great in the flesh, and the performance improvements are real. The stability "outriggers" really do stop your foot from twisting sideways.
Don't judge a book by it's cover.....
Worth looking at what the pro's are saying as well.
US PGA Tour player Gary Woodland, who boasts a ball speed in excess of 200 miles per hour, is an early fan of the product, stating “XPS-1 is the most stable golf shoe I have ever worn in my life. Having proper footwork is critical to the game of golf. For me, balance is everything. With XPS-1, I can get explosive and fire off my right side.”
Padraig was given an early pair to test and refused to hand them back he was that impressed!
Jesus, what ever happened to budget shoes costing £30, mid range £50-60 and premium being £90-100?
I wouldnt buy them on principal that they couldnt be THAT beneficial to my game when shoes half their price do a great job and will last longer looking fresh.
