Was playing today and the balls of my feet are agony. Feels like the muscle/tendon across the arch of my foot is overstretched and there's a burning sensation in my left foot.

Been wearing tour 360 and wondering if anyone has any recommendations for some new shoes? Comfort a must, but I'm 27 so not yet ready for Skechers!!
 
Adipower Gripmore Boost... I've had most shoes at this stage.. And for comfort... these are hands down the best I've had..
 
Adidas are notoriously small, I need a size bigger at least if not 1.5.

I'm not getting on with a pair of FJ hydrolites, similar to you but by the time I wake up the following morning my feet are fine.

I think ink I just need to play more often.
 
I tried the Nike Fi impact II today and so comfy, I'm probably gonna go back and get them tomorrow only concern is slipping.

I've read some reviews though and doesn't seem to be an issue.
 
Highly recommend FJ Dryjoy Casual

Pop to a FJ fitting in an AG
 
I'm a fan of the Adidas Boosts (although the BOA ones I bought aren't as comfy because the dial is on top of the tongue)

I tried on some UA shoes yesterday and was very impressed, waiting on the other model coming in a couple of weeks but will probably end up with a pair of them.

Not cheap mind.
 
the most comfortable shoes ive ever had are Ecco, they are like wearing carpet slippers.

the quality also is far better than any other shoes Ive tried.
 
I've gone a bit crazy on the shoe front of late. Had a pair of XPS-1 and Hyperflex a month ago. Have now got two pairs of Freestyle (fantastic & wonderful shoes 👍) and just ordered a pair of Ecco Biom Hybrid 2 based on the reviews on here. Miles behind Homer but think I'm set now for a while.

I thought the Hyperflex were awesome but Freestyle are better, much better! Interested to see how I get on with the Eccos...
 
I've got some footjoy DNA to be honest I'm not overly keen on them for comfort. Not a patch on my Nike lunar controls I had before. My Spikeless shoes are puma ignites and these are brilliant so comfy.

I found that the DNA fitting was a bit like Freestyle one size smaller but needed a wide fitting. Most stockists have a Footjoy shoe measuring device. Just set it up and if you find that the shoes come up a bit big then make the adjustment for width. I'm a standard width for a size 12 but at size 11 I am right on the Standard/wide fitting border.

I'm really baffled that people are buying shoes and think they can break them in. If it doesn't fit and isn't comfortable when you buy it - it never will be!
