User Reviews
So happy with Ecco boa golf shoes. The fit always works for me. Comfortable and easy to get on and off.
The shoe is very comfortable
Ecco shoes are comfortable and generally soft. The finish of this shoes allows for a better water resistance but they seem to need a bit more care to stay clean (they have a very tiny grid texture). I mainly play early in the morning in the dew, and my feet stay dry.
I bought this as a present for my sister in law. She loved the shoe but didn't tell me until recently that they were too small or not wide enough...she has a bunion and it wasn't comfortable. It wasn't until today that she said she'd like to get a larger size, or a wide shoe...anyway, I can't return them...I have a shoe like this in a different size of course and I love them.
I also put shaded the tie lace pair. I wear a size 11 and ECCO always fit and are comfortable. The insole removes if you need more room. These are not yak leather but softened up in no time.
My wife was excited spending $229 on her new pair of golf shoes but, unfortunately, she felt her foot painful in her first golf game wearing the shoes, additionally the shoes looked too big for her, perhaps due to the extra sole pad.
true to fit, extremely comfortable, cushioned and supportive. Delivered on time
Will not fit narrow feet unfortunately. The placement of the BOA closure on the top of the shoe restricts the shoe from tightening any closer than the width of the BOA closure so I was walking out of these even though the length was perfect. Seems like a simple product flaw to fix.
