I may have skimmed, so sorry about that. But I have a feel question about these shoes.
In golf, and in many athletic activities, I prefer my shoes to fit like a glove. I've had sneaker style shoes before, and it was like wearing clogs or boots. They worked fine, sure, but they didn't feel comfortable when I was swinging. I didn't feel like it was just an extension of my feet, instead, it felt like a gigantic cloth and leather covering, that somehow prevented my feet from rotating properly on the follow through. It's always so hard to charactarize feel in golf shoes, but hopefully you understand what I mean by this.
At the same time, I need some support, and certainly some grip. So for instance, when I look at the Adizero shoe, I see a shoe that may fit like a glove on my narrow feet, but it just looks like my feet would be sore at the end of the day due to the ultra thin or total lack of rubber sole. It looks like the spikes are the only point of contact with the ground, and would bear most of my weight. (I've never tried on the Adizeros, so it's possible that it is not at all what the shoes are like, I'm just trying to describe the other end of the spectrum in shoe feel).
Where does this shoe fit in that spectrum of "shoe feel"?
