Which kind of golf shoe/s do you use wear?
I'm looking at new one's and tried on a couple and found the FootJoys were the most comfortable, specificlly the Contour and DryJoys.

Callaways -- a model that's not on the market anymore. (Early adopter.)
If/when I buy new shoes, I'm looking at Bite, Ecco and Oakley.

I wear the Footjoy Golf Athletics #56732. Very comfortable shoe. I have Morton's Neuroma. Too many other shoes have aggravated my condition.

Another vote for Bite, they feel like buttah', as opposed I guess to feeling like Buttafuoco, which would be a different thread entirely.

What model from the Bite line do you guys own? I was just on their website and 4, maybe 5 of the 10 they show look good to me. I've also heard good things from others about these shoes. The Golf Boot, the 2 golf sandals, and the GP Cruiser will not enter my home.  |

These are great in the summer. They totally blow if there's any standing water at all. A half inch of "squish" and it floods the shoe. The mesh you see in the photo is just that. Still, very light, very comfortable and perfect for the heat of summer. http://biteshoes.com/stor...wear§ion=productsMy other pair isn't shown but is close to this: http://biteshoes.com/stor...wear§ion=products |

Mine look more like the Bite Sport.
But I have a different pair for the winter for the reasons isky said, and 'cuz they didn't have a pair of Bites in black at any of the stores I went to.

Between shoe size and expense, I have yet to find a pair of golf shoes for myself.

I have some variety of FootJoy. White with tan saddle.
To me, color and style are much more important than comfort fit or function.
I need a pair of black shoes.
