What we say:
New Balance has pleasantly surprised us again, this time with the NB Striker. We were expecting a cheapish, mid-level shoe, but the Striker is so much more. We don't think it particularly stands out in terms of style, but true to NB standards, it is very comfortable. Throw decent breathability and top-notch waterproofing into the mix, and you have a durable, year-round golf shoe. The traction system works well, with each of the 7 spikes surrounded by a type of traction pod, which features permanent lubs/nubs. We were also impressed with the new FantomFit support system. We thought it had the potential to be gimmicky, but were pleasantly surprised to feel the extra support it provides, all without sacrificing flexibility or adding weight. Perhaps the best thing about the NB Striker is that we can recommend it for all types of golfers, from beginners to pros.
