What we say:

 

We have somewhat mixed feelings about the Mizuno Genem GTX. One one hand, we love how comfortable it is. It uses its famous Wave running technology in a performance golf shoe, which is a recipe for amazing comfort. We also love the traction system and how you can even adjust the direction of the spikes. Although it's made of full-grain leather, it's still relatively breathable and very waterproof, making it a great option for year-round play. And then there's the other hand, where we feel like you're paying just a bit too much for what you get when compared to other golf shoes in this category. For this price, we were hoping for a bit more support during the swing. That being said, the full-grain leather is really durable, as is the whole shoe. We recommend the Genem GTX for those who don't mind paying a pretty penny in the search for a solid, comfortable golf shoe that will last a long time.
