Word is… "It’s the next evolution of the Lux line — upgraded waterproof knit material with a leather saddle. New Achilles heel pad, TPU mudguard above the midsole."

To continue… "It’s a sweet shoe." 😉

The highlights as I understand them…

• Waterproof Knit Upper.
• Napa Leather Saddle.
• Achilles Heel Pad.
• Heel Lock System with elastic, TPR, and heel pad.
• TPU Mud Guard extends past the toe.
• Tread is Tour tested.
• Natural Fit with a wide toe box.
• 6mm Drop.

@iacas  no. I have not. Still have a brand new pair of the lux sport. Will grab a pair by mid season. I assume the sizing will be the same as the lux sport. The black or white ones are on the radar. Very good looking shoes.

My Trues have arrived. My initial feeling on them is not stellar. I don’t really like the shoe. I ordered a 12 since they have knit components. They are a stiff shoe and maybe a 12 was not the correct size for me. I am in between and 11.5 and 12. I also do not like the laces. They seem cheap in comparison to the Lux Sport. I am not sure if I will exchange for the 11.5 in black or simply exchange for another pair of the Lux sport. I cannot give a performance review on these. Initial reaction and feel on my feet is all.

FWIW, I found the Lux Sport to run small in size and feel a lot different than other True Shoes. I bought a last chance pair in December. I also usually wear a 12.

I will have to check what size I wear. The Lux Sport for me was still a tad to snug to begin with, but then relaxed a bit and it’s now a great fit. It took like wearing them twice to have them stretch out a bit.

I wear a size 10.5 in the Lux Sport. 

Here is a summary of shoe sizes...

OG Feel: 10
Original: 10
Lux Sport: 10.5
Knit: 10

I have a slightly wide foot. It isn't uncommon for me to upsize to a 10.5.

I opted to exchange the vis grey 12s for vis black 11.5. Still not a fan of the laces they selected for this shoe. I will try the 1/2 smaller and different color and provide feedback once I receive.

Did you tell them? What did they say?

I mean, on one level… they're laces. You can replace them.

@iacas  no i did not mention the laces to them. Perhaps if the 11.5 are a no go I will tell them as a long time true consumer i am disappointed in the laces selected for this shoe. Yes only laces but they do stand out as that is how you tighten the shoe. 

What I should have done before sending them back was re lace with the knit ii lacing. But I just thought of that now. Hindsight.

The 11.5 Vis blacks have arrived. Super easy exchange process. 11.5 is a better fit for me. I will be keeping these. The black is super sleek looking with the camo saddle. Since these fit I took a few practice swings. Shocked by how structured these feel especially in the heel and sides. Tentatively playing this Saturday. Will give real play feedback if it works out. I got over the laces.

I have 2 of the Lux Sport, as well as 1 of the OG Feel, which are great golf shoes.  But I just ordered the hybrid, can never have too many golf shoes.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By WillieT · Posted

      Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.

      Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.

      Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.

      I have access to far more data (including surveys and polls) than you do with your anecdotes. I mean this as plainly and literally as possible: you’ve demonstrated that you do not. They would, one way or the other.

      Yes, but you don't live in the UK, so you have no idea what we think about it here. It's a very different mindset here, to demonstrate the fact you should consider 9 out of 10 games we play here are Stableford, whereas you you almost solely play medal. Neither is right or wrong, it's just different  I'm trying to avoid swearing here. Once again, and for the 1000th time, I understand the system, I just don't agree with it. Is there anything wrong with that? PS, I do not have the time or patience to post my results, especially as they prove nothing  That's because 99% of the posters are Yanks
