I am thinking about purchasing a pair of golf shoes with the BOA lace system.  Looking for comfort & waterproof.

Thanks

I have an Adidas pair. I got them for the wider toe box. They were on sale last year at the PGA Superstore. I would recommend trying on a few. The BOA lace system is nice too.

I have a pair of Adidas shoes with the BOA system and the shoes are anything but comfortable. I switched to True Linkswear after one season with them, decided the lacing system wasn’t as important to me as overall comfort.

The BOA system is great, though.

I was thinking about True Linkswear, but have seen mixed reviews.

There is no such thing as "comfortable golf shoes".

Shoes that are comfortable for some will be uncomfortable for others. And vice versa. You have to try them yourself.

Do not rely on the experience of others, but be guided by it............... to a point.

I am anti-boa laces! Hate em. I've owned one pair, foot-joy, and regretted the purchase within a week. Almost bought a pair of Pumas, tried them on, didn't like em. I guess it's just not my thing. 

I do like True Linkswear Originals a lot.... a real lot! I would also consider Eccos, as those are a great shoe too. 

As others have said you are doing yourself a disservice unless you try them for yourself. 

What makes you interested in boa's? Do you have trouble keeping your laces tied?

My bag is an ever-changing combination of clubs. 

A mix I am forever tinkering with.

I was thinking it would be more of fine tuning thing.  Sometimes my shoes might get a little loose during the round, or I have them too tight and need to loosen after a few holes.  Its mostly me being lazy.

TRUE doesn't have a BOA shoe.

I know that.  I should have said that I have considered True in past, before I heard of the BOA system

I love Footjoys.  They fit me perfectly and are comfortable right out of the box.  Of course, feet are different so YMMV.

My first pair of their BOAs had a BOA failure where one of the BOA “eyelets” was stitched onto the upper.  Subsequent pairs have been fine though.  

In David's bag....

Irons: Titleist 695cb 5-Pw
Wedges: Scratch 51-11 TNC grind, Vokey SM-5's;  56-14 F grind and 60-11 K grind

Footjoy Originals, looking to buy my third pair, white and brown. I have no idea what a BOA lacing system is but don't think I need it.

Just out of curiosity, if you don’t know what BOA is, why would you comment on a thread where the OP is asking for BOA recommendations?

maybe because it was like you, just out of curiosity.  I also did not have any idea until I googled

      Day 314 - Putting some things together. Better grip/setup, fuller backswing, better finishing position. Filmed some swings, happy with the progress.

      Day 206 (24 Nov 24)  - An easy session with the 54deg wedge and hard foam balls / one simple goal - distance control thru backswing length while not decelerating.  Had a playing partner comment they noticed me decelerating on a couple short wedge shots in last round.  Hit from distances from close to 40yds down to 20.

      Best Shot of the Week

      Musgrove Mill hole #15 was converted to a par 3 after Hurricane Helene. Today, I had 145 from the tee which is a perfect 9-iron for me. I aimed just right of the hole and pulled it a few feet. Clanked off the stick down into the hole and ricocheted out of the hole 13’ away. Drained the putt for a birdie after repairing the hole which was damaged . Not sure if it would have counted as a HIO, but I was pretty excited!

      Day 55 - 2024-11-24 Did five levels of Operation 36 on GSPro (different courses). 🙂 Was -4 from 200 yards (32) intentionally laying up on each hole (i.e. not hitting a 5I or something). Shot… 22, 24, 26 from 25, 50, and 100 yards. I forget my 150-yard score, but obviously it was < 36. Putting was odd… (and I did it with the wedge or a 7I or whatever was in my hand).
