My Nike Air Tour Saddle shows have given up the ghost.

They have been the most comfortable golf shoes I have ever had and I'm tempted to just replace them like for like.

Before I do does anyone have any recommendations for other shoes? No specific budget and I don't mind paying for quality.

Some of the Ecco shoes look very good. Anyone have any experience with these?

Thanks
 
My Father in Law only wears Ecco, he loves them, but he always waits till the end of season sales as they are mega bucks :rofl:

I have oakley spikeless shoes and they are very comfortable, not sure how long they will last tho but I'll only wear then in dry sunny conditions

My other shoes are adidas adipure z and they are also very very good, I've never had any problems with them but some folk say the adidas shoes have worn out terribly quickly
 
I would start with Nike as they have suited you up til now. The Lunar Controls are meant to be excellent.

My current favourites are adidas Puremotion, excellent for my weird feet as I have a high instep. The adiZero's are great too.
 
Ecco all day for me. The quality of the leather and how they are made far better than FJ and far more waterproof too. I’ve had a pair of Hydromax Tour now for getting on for 3 year and these are still almost like new and no stretch in the leather, which was a factor with FJ for me.
 
For a mid priced pair the Puma ace shoes are nice.

I have a pair as well as the puma cell's and they are like wearing trainers. So comfortable for playing 18 or 36 holes.
 
I got some Nike Lunar Control ll's at the start of the season, excellent, like slippers, AG had a sale and got them for £102.00 at the time. Possibly cheaper out their somewhere but I like to shop local face-to-face. :thup:
 
Adizero have been fantastic for me so far! not had them long enough to see if adidas have improved their "build quality" from the 360 days, but so far so good. lightest most comfy golf shoes i have ever worn.
 
Big fan of Puma shoes currently, haver a pair of cell fusions that Ive had for a year or so and are still going great. Have just added a lightweight pair of the Faastrack and they are super comfy too (there are plenty of decent deals about on them currently too)
 
I've a pair of Nike Lunar Control. Only worn them twice so far but they are very comfy, like wearing trainers.
 
I'm looking for new shoes just now aswell, currently have the lunar controls, very comfy but found they leaked very easily in the rain or on soaking wet ground, seemed to leak in the same area as the Adidas 360.
 
I brought a pair of the Ecco GTX and I have worn them 4 times in 6 months as they are so uncomfortable I have seriously considered throwing them away. I have owned a pair of Adipures for 2 years and they have been fantastic

+1. The only other shoes I've got other than Ecco's are the Stuburt Darren Clarke's. Highly recommend either.

with some of the top range Ecco's the leather is very thick and needs a bit of wearing in. Straight out the box, i'm not supprised they are uncomfy.
 
After a finding out on Saturday my adidas 360' s leak I've just found some footjoy dryjoy tours for £65 delivered. 2012 patern but IMO look better than this years and £30+ cheaper.
 
I have been looking to get some spikeless shoes. I think the ashworth Cardiff look pretty good. Anyone got a pair or had any ashworth shoes?
 
I've gt a pair of the Adidas tour 360's and they are a very comotable pair of shoes, however the padding and cloth cover on the inside heel has quite quickly worn away and now when worn they rub my heels.

So I've bought a pair of Footjoy M-Project and they are just like wearing slippers, very comfortable and sure footed. Not had them out in the wet, but thus far very very god.
