What we say:

What struck us immediately about the ECCO BIOM G5 golf shoe was its year-round wearability. The high-quality, genuine leather and mesh upper is very waterproof thanks to the addition of Gore-Tex, yet still breathes surprisingly well due to the performance leather and mesh. This ECCO golf shoe is also extremely comfortable, and the BOA fastening system adds to this comfort by allowing for micro-adjustments that laces just can't do. The spiked traction system is fantastic, which feels good when walking (for spiked traction) and grips solidly on every surface you'll encounter on the course. Overall, the BIOM G5 sticks quite close to its predecessors in terms of feel and performance. While it is definitely on the higher-end of the cost spectrum, you do get what you pay for. The BIOM G5 will last a long time, and we recommend it for those who don't mind dishing out the bucks on comfort and quality.
