Footjoy Flex review
The Footjoy Flex is a great shoe option for golfers who prefer a sneaker-like fit. The toes of the shoe are wider, which will appeal to many golfers who are looking for more room in this part of the shoe. These are very breathable and are a perfect option for warmer days, but buyers beware of little to no waterproof protection. Traction is ideal for many playing conditions and the Footjoy Flex can be worn on or off the golf course.
