Pros – Comfortable and good fit
Cons – Not very waterproof
What we say:
The New Balance Breeze is a very affordable sport/trainer style golf shoe. We recommend it for beginner golfers who demand durability and comfort above all else. We say this because it lacks a bit in a few categories, especially in terms of support. While its mesh upper is certainly breathable, flexible and comfortable, it certainly doesn't offer the support that higher swing speeds demand. The Breeze's grip is adequate, but like we just said, higher swing speeds may lose traction. All in all, the New Balance Breeze is a great summer golf shoe, specifically for those who enjoy walking the course. it offers just enough water resistance to keep you feet dry in damp conditions, but definitely not during rainy winter months.
