I need some help choosing a pair of shoes.

The Adidas 360 II in Running White/Black/Mania Blue (the toe area is black) or the Powerband in Running White/Dark Silver/Black (all white).

I think the 260 II are more comfortable but I don't know about the 1/2 black 1/2 white look. The price is 129.99

I really like the looks of the all white Powerbands but they don't feel as comfortable or as soft. The price is 139.99

Let me know what you think.

Powerbands. Really great shoe. I own both models, but prefer the Powerbands. They are just more comfortable to me.

i use 360 II and they are really comfortable, which is important since im a walker
so i wouldn't hestitate in recommending those to you

haven't tried the powerbands so i can't comment, but personally i think the 360s look much better than powerbands

If youre usually lazy, OOPS I mean riding a cart, then get some sweet Footjoy Classic Dry PRemier with the leather bottoms! You can get exact widths for a perfect fit!

Powerbands, I just picked up a pair of white and red ones at gpp golf.com, a sponsor of golfwrx for only 69 bucks. They are on sale for half off. They only have the white and red and white and silver left but I was getting the red anyways so it was a really great deal

The color is my dilemma. Should I get the tour 360s in the black, white and blue or should I get the all white powerbands. I can't decide. I actually purchased the 360s but I don't know if I want to keep them.

I bought their powerband shoes through the gppgolf.com website and had them shipped to me. It came out to under 80 shipped to my house. They are still only 70 bucks on their website, I just checked.

It seems to be on everything but the size 12 and 12.5...I'm gonna give them a call and see if they'll do the same price on the 12. Heck, even the 11.5 is $69 but the 12 is $99!

I personally think the adidas are the most UNCOMFORTABLE shoe I've ever worn. I am referring to the Tour 360's, primarily in the heel/achilles area they have a seam which wears on my bone. I tried 2 pair.

I chose the FootJoy DryJoys for 2008. Everyone has different feet so if you are comfortable in the adidas then you are golden.

Powerbands. I've had both and they are more comfortable and much more stable. Really good shoes.

not sure what size you are, but if someone is a 10, here is a good deal on the original 360's.

I am one of the biggest shoe ho's. I have tried them Footjoy's, nike, etonic, addias, the list goes on and on. My favorite pair as of the end of last season is hands down the powerband. The 360's are comfortable but had the biggest issue with the tounge. The tounge is very thin and tends to move around alot and is shorter than the average tounge. The powerband is more stable in the heel and in the arch than the 360's. You will not go wrong with either shoe but if comfort is what you are after I would go powerband.

I would go for the 360 II's unless your heel is as wide as your toe area. I have a narrow heel and wider toe and I was floating in the powerband when I tried them on. My heel would come out of the shoe when I attempted a golf swing in the shop. I got the 360 II's in the white on white model and also the white with the black center that you are looking at. The style takes a little to get used to and I am thinking about dying the white portion black.
