Review on ๐ŸŒ๏ธ Hyperflex Boa Golf Shoe for Men by FootJoy by Brent Henderson

Revainrating 2 out of 5

2 design flaws that forced me to return this

1. The heel strap protrudes into the back of the heel. Not a problem if you wear thick mid to long socks, but if you wear low or thin socks it can be a problem. Maybe I just got a poor quality sample but the glue/stitching on the heel strap cut into the back of my ankle hard enough to bleed at the 3rd hole (through the toe) and I had to buy thicker socks from a pro store . . I played in Arizona in 105 degree heat so my socks were thin. I've never had this problem with Etonic, Ecco, Callaway or Under Armor shoes when wearing the same socks.2. What do you usually do when you take off your shoes? If you think about the movement, you'll find that most people tend to press the heel of one foot into the flank of the other to push off their shoes. Well, guess where the boa constrictor's system wheel is? On the heel. Every time you take them off, you accidentally lock the watch face again. Super annoying. They are lightweight and otherwise comfortable, but not enough to justify/overcome both of these shortcomings in my opinion. I settled on the Adidas ZG21 after returning them and have been very happy with them so far after about a dozen rounds of play with no issues.
