Who should buy the Footjoy Tour X BOA
This footwear is made to target different golfers:
- Individuals who tried out the Tour X and would want a BOA upgrade.
- Those who are looking for a shoe crammed with technologies and style.
- Professionals and newbies seeking footwear that would help with comfort, stability, and traction.
Lightweight yet significantly stable base
Like its predecessor, the BOA version of the brand's most popular silhouette uses a Powerplate outsole with LaunchPods. It is a lightweight but significantly stable base. It aids players in effectively and efficiently transferring power from planting the swing until follow-through. The LaunchPods also help widen the surface area and coverage of the platform on the ground.
This shoe has a spiked construction and is equipped with Softspikes Pulsar and Tour Lock Cleat System.
Ortholite FitBed
The Ortholite FitBed proves that first impressions last. This midsole tech is a match made in heaven for walkers and those who want comfort because of its immediate underfoot cushioning feature.
Luxurious Chromoskin upper
The partnership between Pittards and Footjoy has long been successful as the strengths of both brands can be rooted since the 1800s. The Tour X BOA uses a luxurious Chromoskin upper, which is known for its durability and comfortable and lightweight feel.
With the endless technologies that are infused into this piece, the BOA makes all the difference. Putting their thinking caps on, FJ and BOA created a heel-mounted fit solution and integrated the dial in the shoe heel. Described as a "down and back" fit, the placement of the closure system makes a drastic difference as it locks down both the forefoot and heel.
PowerStrap
A proprietary PowerStrap is integrated on the upper. It helps stabilize the medial and lateral area because of the molded component integrated on the sides. A 3D FoamCollar 2.0 and TourSpec stretch tongue is implemented which improves the fit further.
The Footjoy Tour X BOA is built on a Laser Plus Last. It has a full round toe, slightly narrow heel, and standard fit across the forefoot and instep. This form gives ample toe room and prevents the heel from slipping during foot rotation.
