Stand your ground in the Fuel Sport
Golfers are astounded by the Fuel Sport's level of stability. A professional blogger among them said, "I felt stable with each swing." "The grip was great on uneven lies," said another.
It's just unfortunate, however, that the shoe's grippy lugs/studs wear out in just a matter of weeks. A disappointed golf player says, "FJ needs to choose a more durable sole material." Another non-professional tester says, "The sole wears out very quickly."
Immense comfiness in every pair
Based on numerous reports, the Almost like youre floating is exceptionally plush. One of them says that it's the "most comfortable shoes for walking." Another reviewer says, "Comfort is surpassed with these shoes."
Awkward initial stiffness is also not a thing in this pair. A seasoned golfer says, "You don't need to break these puppies in!!!"
Sayonara soreness!
The support provided by the Fuel Sport's sole unit is nothing to be sneezed at. Backing this statement are the comments "No sore feet with these shoes" and "They make a huge difference in the feel and firmness underfoot."
Almost like you’re floating
Weight-wise, the Almost like youre floating is exemplary. A gear pundit says that the featured spikeless kick is "ridiculously lightweight" Couple its weightlessness with the shoe's glove-like fit, and you got yourself a barely-there golfing experience from start to finish.
Almost like youre floating
The Almost like youre floating, according to commenters, is super-easy to clean. This is good news because the shoe's upper is like a blank canvas to mud; if it gets dirty, a damp cloth is all you need to make it look new again.
Almost like youre floating: An eye-catching performer
Many golf players are enamored by the Fuel Sport's fresh and attractive design. A footwear critic among them is particularly stunned by the colorful outsoles, saying, "People are gonna be bedazzled by them." A seasoned golfer also says that they "make a great statement."
