shoes

In the next couple weeks I am planning on purchasing some shoes for disc golf and was wondering if I could get some suggestions.

I have used Shoe Goo in the past. I think it works pretty good as long as there isn't already a hole in your shoe. You just reapply as it wears off.

Sup Cassidy;

You know me - dudes my size rip up solomons. I suspect that's the case for most people, but mine didn't last really past the first year. Got them in spring, tread at least was gone quick. And they were the $140 models.

I also bought a pair of vented chameleons (merrell) at the same time - the tread is also kinda ruined on one foot on those, but overall they lasted longer.

I recently got a pair of the $140 gore-tex merrell's with the big beefy tread, they are holding up great so far. 2 months in.

I started throwing in skater shoes, and I actually prefer those still, but for nice shoes - my $$ goes for merrell's that have the beefier tread.

Columbia... I feel they're the best quality for the price. They're super light and if you're looking for waterproof then get the "Omni-Tech"'. I have a pair of Merrels and I like the Columbias better.
