The front of the shoe is so roomy I had to add inserts. Comfortable, but surprisingly hot, as I was expecting them to be cooler with their fabric exterior.

I’m a difficult fit, so it’s not unusual to have to try several styles and sizes before I find the comfort that is needed to be on my feet all day.

It's light, so I think it's good to buy.

I haven't had the chance to wear these golf shoes on the course yet, but the design and the fit are exactly what I am looking for.

Wear them everyday. Product is as advertised. Light weight, can feel the road underfoot. Good looking. Only fail are the laces. Always come untied unless use bubble laces and problem is solved.

A very nice looking golf shoe, unfortunately it was to wide for me. I wear a narrow but this shoe only came in medium. I tried it on and it would not work for me. It would be a great golf shoe for someone with a medium width foot.

The only reason these didn't get 5 stars is the opening to put your foot in is too tight. Very comfortable, I have bunions on both feet and these are the only golf shoes that I have worn that did not bother them.

I love this show, however they did not fit similar to my Turf Shoe. Identical sizing 11 2e but this shoe definitely fits larger. When I tried them on in store the felt great. After a day on the course my foot began to slide in the shoe

Fit and finish is typical of New Bal. If New Bal is your shoe this will not disappoit

I love NB and have worn previous version of NB's golf shoes, but these were just a little too loose in the heel area for me. It is a great looking shoe with plenty of cushion and support, however, so I'm sad that it wasn't a perfect fit. I wear a size 16D in NB but opted to go with the Foot Joy Contour in 15D and it fits great.

Great for walking around on the golf course. Hopefully will be water resistant as advertised. They are a little bit difficult to get into; but manageable.

Too narrow in the toe box for me. Surprising because New Balance is my preferred shoe/.

Hi,
I love my new Fresh Foam Links shows they feel fantastic. However, they have ruined 3 pairs of white socks in a row. The insoles in the shoes bleed when you sweat (walking 18 holes).
Thanks,

These shoes are hard to put on in my opinion. I have wide feet and because the tongue of the shoe is fastened to the sides I can't spread the opening out to get my foot inside. I use a long handled shoehorn to help slide my foot into the shoe. Once I have the shoe on it feels pretty good.

Will have to purchase gel or heavy insoles. After walking around in these for an hour, feet began to ache a little. You can feel the cleats on the bottom of your feet. Not enough cushioning. Makes them uncomfortable after a few hours. Other wise they are fine. I am using these for baseball turfs. So in reality, I am walking around less than if I were playing golf. Unfortunately, NB doesn't make BB turfs in X-wide??? So I may have to go back to wearing umpire turfs around the baseball field. And for me, NB is the only manufacture who make any kind of a sports shoe in X-wide, but choices are few. But they do make most of their shoes in wide, which won't work for me. Other manufactures are in left field when it comes to correct sizes. Too bad, there is a market for us too.

Very comfortable, but not suited to my game. I walk the course early in the mornings, in the dew, and even with four coats of waterproofing, my feet get soaking wet wearing these. And they are incredibly stained with dirt after just four rounds. I had to order some dry joys, should have known better.

Liked the look. Was wider than other New Balance shoes owned. I specifically buy NB because of fit and support. These were a good fit in all respects except for width.

The shoe fits length wise. It fits in the toe area. The rest of the shoe doesn't fit at all. My foot flops around. Because the body of the shoe is of stiffer material and I have a small foot relative to its length it doesn't conform to my foot.

Shocked that 1 of the spike flaps came off during my round. I put it back on with Gorilla Glue but not sure it will hold. Shoes were worn 6x
