What we say:

 

To be blunt, we're not all that impressed with the ASICS GEL-Preshot Classic 2. Starting with the positives, it is quite comfortable, and is versatile in that it can be worn off the course as well. When on the course, make sure the grass isn't wet, because this golf shoe just isn't that waterproof. The GEL-Preshot Classic 2 lacks support during the swing as well. It is definitely geared more towards high handicap golfers, who don't demand as much support or stability during the swing. At it's current suggested retail price, the GEL-Preshot Classic 2 just isn't a great bargain.
