I was expecting a more supportive shoe from New Balance. I am looking for a running shoe type golf shoe that is easy to walk the course in. These are light weight with a flexible sole, but need a little more lateral support - especially for a golf shoe. too easy to roll ankles in and not enough material or structure on the outside of the shoe.

The minute I took these shoes out of the box, I knew I would not like it. It is very stiff and cheaply made. The pink lining of the shoe near the lace holes are coming apart. No quality control here!

These shoes are very comfortable with good all over grip, and are very lightweight. They are even more comfortable than my regular New Balance everyday wear sneakers. I was a little unsure about the somewhat "blingy" metallic strips in the laces and was going to replace them, but I found they actually seem to help keep the laces tied without any slippage, so keeping them on. I would definitely buy them again.

After years of Foot Joys, I broke down and tried the Minimus 1006. Having worn your 990 for years to walk/hike, I wondered if the support and endurance would translate. Yes. They have the same stay grounded hold that a traditional golf shoe has, but also the flexibility and lightness New Balance has come to represent.

These are really comfortable and fun golf shoes. I have the coral, grey, and white models. All fit perfectly right out of the box. They perform great on the course whether walking or riding, they are easy to clean after around, and they are very stylish. I have golf shoes that cost much more but they are no more functional nor fun than the NB shoes. Given the price, these shoes are a steal.

I love these shoes. They are so light and very comfortable to wear. Ordered my regular size and had to return and go up 1/2 size and they are perfect. Get lots of compliments on them. Highly recommend.

I wear a 1/2 to 1 size larger in New Balance I have 3 pairs in different colors. I like everything about the golf shoes. The arch support is not the best but orthotics could be used.
I'd also recommend:
I think they are the best!

I normally wear a 9 Narrow. This shoe was narrower than I expected, which I liked. However, it was a little short for me. I returned the shoes. Reordered them 1/2 size larger and they were perfect. Liked the style of the shoe. Light weight.

Absolutely love this golf shoe! I've played in various shoe brands previously, and these are super comfortable. They're light, not clunky and super cute and worth every penny. And I love the sparkles!

I play a lot of golf, probably about 4 times a week. I was looking for a lightweight shoe to wear in the summer when the temp is hot, 80 - 90 degrees +. These shoes are the answer. Very comfortable and fit me well. Buying shoes is such a hit and miss affair and what suits me, may not be right for you but I think these are quality shoes, well made and at a fair price.

There are not a lot of choices for WIDE golf shoes for women. While I would have preferred the blue or purple option, I ordered the grey and pink because it comes in WIDE. The photos do not clearly show that the grey shoe laces are sparkly. Very, very sparkly. The trim on the shoe is iridescent. This shoe would should have a Disney princess on it because it is more appropriate for a grade school girl than an adult. While the shoe is comfortable, I just can't see myself wearing such a gaudy, childish shoe on the golf course. I am disappointed in the design team who chose this color combination as the only wide shoe in their golf line.

Shoes look sweet and well made. Tried on at home and it was cushy. Walked around the house with the shoes and noticed that there was NO ROOM from the topside of my big toe to the shoe. (not the front of the shoe, the upper) I thought I'd remove the pad. For some reason NB glues them in. I have never bought an athletic shoe like this that had the pads glued in. I even made sure before I bought them (in the chat) if the pads were not integrated and indeed removable. They said removable. So now they are ruined and I cannot return them. Waste. The shoe I purchased was a half size larger than usual, as recommended.

I loved the look of these golf shoes that is why I ordered them but they are too small. I wear a size 10 and these felt at 1/2 size too small. They have no support and a very thin insole but I think if you order a size up you can put your own supportive insole into them.
