I saw the Powerbands live today. They look much better in person. I am now considering getting a pair. Are they as comfortable as the 360s? OR Are they a step down?

Definately not a step down. I like the Powerbands a bit more than my Tour 360s....

I gotta agree, I was skeptical at first, but I'm very impressed. They're VERY stable in the fore-foot area with the rigid platform.

They don't have the same sort of super cushy fit foam the 360's do, but they're still very comfortable. For guys who thought the 360's were too narrow, I think they'll be very happy with the Powerbands since they have a wider toe box than the 360's.

If you try them on, I think you'll be very surprised.

My opinion, I like the 360's, I LOVE the powerbands. To me, they are much more comfortable. I did have to go down a half size from my 360's though. They are not as tight as the 360's are, which I really like, but I honestly think after playing a couple of rounds in them they are more stable than 360's. The 360's are a great shoe, don't get me wrong, but to me the powerbands are a better shoe and they are also around $40 cheaper. Try them out, you won't be disappointed.

I agree with those above. The powerbands are just as comfortable as the tour 360s but they have a slightly different fit. They are wider in the toe area.

dead spot on, I was tight in a 8.5 wide in tour 360's but I am about to toss them all in the garbage for 8.5 medium Powerbands, I LOVE THESE SHOES!!! They are super comfortable and definately very stable throughtout the wildest of swings!

How do Adidas shoes fit to size? I am wanting to order some powerbands...but not sure what size...I wear an 11 in Callaway and Foot-Joy but an 11.5 in Nike, anyone have any idea what size Adidas I should order?

The PowerBands run big compared even compared to other Adidas shoes. I wear a 9.5 in the 360 and Nikes but went down to a 9 for the Power Band. I'd go try them out for sure. They have a very wide toe box compared to other shoes, so people who normally wear wide shoes may not need to order wides.

Thanks. Sounds like I could get away with an 11. I checked my local shop today and they didn't have any in for me to try on. I hate ordering shoes online without knowing if they are going to fit.

I tried a pair on at Martin's when I was at the beach this weekend and thought they were a little narrow around the ball of my foot compared to my Tour Metal's and 360's. These were a wide too.
