My husband bought the men's version of this shoe and couldn't stop raving about how comfortable they were. I was reluctant to get them because of the high price tag, but after doing some additional research, I decided to buy them. I golf between 4 and 8 times per month and often walk 9 holes after work. I have plantar fasciitis and am required to wear orthotics with all athletic shoes. And sometimes even with my orthotics, after walking 9 holes with my old golf shoes my feet will hurt. I tried the Ecco Biom's with my orthotics and I didn't instantly realize how great they were. I took my orthotics out and immediately knew what my husband was talking about. It felt like I had nothing on my feet. The shoes are very lightweight but still supportive. I've worn them for several rounds of golf with a cart and have had no problems, and I don't anticipate having any foot pain when I walk a round. They are described as water-resistant but I wore them on a very wet golf course and my feet stayed dry. They are European-sized; I normally wear an 8.5-9 and for these, I ordered a 40 (9-9.5) and they fit perfectly. I'm very happy with these shoes and would order them again in heartbeat.
