Haven't had a chance to wear gel, but the shoes looks beautiful, seem high quality. First size was too narrow- a typical 11 shoe- we needed to send back and order the 11.5 wide (would not say I have a wide foot).
But service was awesome! Stay tuned to see how they hold up!!

I went from the traditional laced Pro SL to the Boa this year. Same size, but definitely a difference in the way the shoe breaks in. The old Pro SLs fit great and comfortable right out of the box, the Boas were a little different. First round I got horrible heel blisters and had to quit after 9. Usually I tape my heels for a couple of rounds with new shoes but because of my 'success' with the older Pro Sl i didn't bother and it was a mistake.
3 rounds in, the Boas are comfortable, stable and I do love the Boa tech as someone who routinely tightens laces during a round.
I think the Boa mechanism makes the heel a little stiffer and thus takes a little more time to break in so lesson learned. I look forward to many comfortable rounds from here.

I have two pairs of these, one of the limited edition gold and white ones and one of the grey for muddy days. The white ones are very comfortable and I have had no issues with them but the grey ones even after 15+ rounds of wearing them are still cutting in to my heels. Both have good grip in all conditions and good waterproofing. Just let down a bit by the grey pair.

Went with these as very rare to find shoes with a narrow fit choice; would have preferred the colour choice of a medium fit but figured comfort over colour was best as these are a cool design. Also noticed that most retailers don't quote which of the fits they stock, presumably all medium? I took the risk of trying to wear them for a whole round before wearing them in, as other buyers had done so without issue. First four holes or so they were so comfortable, thought I was on to a winner. Then developed a sore point (heading towards a blister) on side of my heel, so changed back to my old shoes which I'd put in my golf bag just in case. I'm hoping sore point was caused by my (old) ankle height sock, which has a seam in it; I will try some new socks and wear the shoes in gradually. So the jury's out but hopefully all will turn out great with a bit of patience, fingers crossed. The shoes look good, lightweight, they're waterproof and should be ideal for all seasons and moulded studs are more like my favoured plastic spike shoe type, rather than just trainer grips.

My purchase of new Pro SL shoes took longer than expected because I found out that standard width was smaller than my other shoes so I had to return for the wider width shoes..
But they are the first shoes I ever that I was able to play a full round of golf out of the box without any blisters.. I am very happy with them and the look and feel was exceptional.

These are golf shoes. I bought them because of BOA technology and wideness. I was impressed when I received them. They are comfortable and I like to the BOA technology. Occasionally, I have a difficulty tightening the right shoe to feel more tight. Otherwise, I have enjoyed the shoes. Definitely, recommend them if you are looking for BOA technology.

My narrow feet are best in Footjoys and sizing is reliable. Pretty comfortable and very stable.

So far so good, hoping after they break in more won't have to tighten them so often during a round, figured that may be an issue for awhile, all around great shoe.

They look fantastic and provide excellent stability in all kinds of weather.
However, they definitely are narrow in the toe box. That's my only complaint, length wise they are absolutely perfect and the way it cups your heel is very comfortable. But I just can't get over how tight they are in the toe box. Walking 36 left me with massive painful blisters on my big toes, something that's never happened before. They felt a tad snug at first but I figured they loosen up a bit and they never did.

I have size 10 extra wide feet and normally buy spiked FJ,s but I'm tired of changing spikes all the time. I bought these sight unseen and at first thought the outsoles were a bit wide. It took a nine hole round before they started to become flexible and I did form a blister on my right heel. After the second outing they are now "broken in". I still think the outsoles are a bit wide but not as much as I originally did. I really like the "traction elements" on this shoe, certainly in comparison to spikes, but am waiting to see if they last as long as the shoe. Normally the nubs on spiked shoes near the toe and heal only last about one season but the shoe itself lasts four or more. Do I like them? Yes. Would I buy these again? It depends on how they age. Time will tell.

My husband loves the look of the shoe, and although they felt a bit narrow when first he tried them he played in them the next day and said they felt great! The only drawback was the laces. They were entirely too short, I had to replace them.

I have not tried the new shoes on the course yet, but I am disappointed how FJs fit now. I have a wide foot and it seems FJ has narrowed the toe box of the shoes and they don't fit me as well as previous FJ golf shoes. Even the wides are not as comfortable as they used to be. I have always like FJ golf shoes and styles, but the narrower fit has kept me from buying them when I have needed new shoes.

For the first time that I could ever remember I am completely disappointed with my purchase I'm hungry other than the look of the shoe the comfort level is nothing like it used to be with this model apparently they have narrowed the front of the foot and it makes tissue irrelevant to me I'm only disappointed that I didn't try them on before purchasing as I cannot return them I would not recommend this model for anyone who needs a wide soled show

Great traction, comfortable for walking, squeaks :'(
Wearing them for a month, I love the ProSL's because I use inserts for fallen arches. The soles are thick and resist twisting. Worn for ten rounds, and while they are comfortable, I won't be sneaking up on anyone because the pleather squeaks on every step.

A little disappointed, although I feel I am part of a very select few. My third pair of Footjoys, but this time not ecstatic with the comfortability and the boa which after going very tight still have my feet moving around. Nothing to do with the money, even if the shoes were $100 I would ve been disappointed.
