I am an Asics (and Brooks)running and hiking shoe wearer exclusively. So I bought these light weight golf honeys knowing I would get the consistent quality fit and finish that goes with the Asics brand. The shoe is `as advertised'...light, stable and the cleatless design make the shoe extremely user friendly....no shoe change necessary from course to clubhouse to car to living room. But the shoes DID NOT improve my handicap. I have not used the shoe in wet (or rainey) conditions as yet, so no comment. All this said, I still have an on-going complaint with Asics (and Brooks) shoes. With all of the quality built into these brands, they both "cheap out" when it comes to their insoles. Thus the score of 4 vs a 5. After I get a great price and delivery on one of these brands from Amazon, I immediately buy better quality insoles from the Insole Store. But...don't let my concern be your concern. These are very good shoes for everyday golfing and I will be buying another pair to rotate.
