Nike Infinity Tour 2 GORE-TEX Golf Review – Are They Good for WINTER Golf?

Nike Infinity Tour 2 GORE-TEX Review – the winterized golf boot.

[Music] okay the boys [Music] [Music] hey what’s going on this is JP from golf heads and we are back with another review and this video it’s dedicated to the Nike Infinity tour 2 next per gortex it’s gortex you know about gortex you like saying gortex don’t you so I know we did a video on the shoe version but this is now the winterized model there’s a lot of updates that we want to walk through and help you determine whether this is a cop or a drop you may be wondering who needs a winter boot well if you live where I live in Canada you only have a few good months of good weather for golf outside of the summer uh people still get out there and play golf but typically it’s windy cold it rains every other day and so having a winter boot whether it’s this one or any other one is uh definitely a good thing to have as an option before before we get into it please like And subscribe all the views all the comments it all means a lot to us and will just help us really invest in getting some more products and doing these videos for you guys all right new pair of shoes got the gortex infinity tours brand new I’m going to probably have to work these in all right I mean they feel a little funny you could feel the padding here which is designed to support your Achilles and then it’s pretty snug on the top color is pretty wild almost looks like I have Avatar feet know I I don’t like the color of this at all fit all black when I see this colorway I think of Miami Vice I think of the summertime I think of the beach but you know in other things I do like this color like I have a head cover from dormy which was inspired from the Miami Heat Vice jerseys there’s like a hint of green I don’t know if I’m color blind I wish it was a richer blue color maybe even slightly darker just so that it could be a bit more neutral and go with more apparel um one thing around the toe box that I really love is this like pattern that kind of runs along the toe kind of reminds me of like the Kobe 6 for some reason like I kind of get that snake vibe to it the shoe itself the upper is completely different from the Nike Infinity T 2 NEX percents they did a lot of updates to it I love the material that they use with the gortex it’s a lot different than previous years where looks a lot more breathable you’ll see closely here the upper material it almost feels like a canvas it’s a little rough on the touch but it’s very durable if you don’t know about gortex it’s essentially one of the best waterproof materials that is out there that’s also breathable so a lot of winter outerwear and jackets rain jackets and stuff like that are using Gore the tongue itself is sewn in all the way pretty much to the top and I really love this ankle support material it’s very light but then it does hug your foot at the same time so overall this shoe is very easy to put on um some of the other boots are yet to kind of really push your foot in just to get them on and I did mention in the other review um this padding in the back area and you might not be able to see it but it’s pretty thick when I first put my foot in the shoe it did feel a little off you can kind of feel everything that’s going on in there and you kind of get used to it after you start walking around um I will say though they do fit fairly snug so if you are going to put these on wear a regular pair of socks no need to put on those thick wool socks cuz it would feel super tight if you put that on the good thing is it’s very insulated in there it does feel fairly light in terms of the layering but it’s actually surprisingly warm and that’s the one thing I I was keeping in mind throughout the round really good with traction I was going up and down Hills it was a little rainy um one negative that I did mention in my other video is it’s lack of flexibility I wore this twice you can see at the toe there’s like no crease and that’s because this bottom here is super super stiff review so now coming to the price point this is a $200 USD shoe for me I’m in Canada I paid 260 plus tax almost came up to $300 for a pair of shoes which is crazy in my opinion but the one thing is it will last you for years because you only wear it on those few occasions so I think there’s some longevity with it you know I did expect a little bit of a jump just because of the materials that were used on the upper all right and that wraps up our video on the Nike Infinity tour 2 next percent gortex hopefully that’s the last time I have to say that overall I do think it is a better shoe than the sneaker version calling it The sneaker version that shoe I gave a 6.7 out of 10 which was just like an okay rating definitely some more improvements if I were to just ignore the colorway I definitely use this as my go-to winter shoe I’m going to give it a rating uh 7.7 out of 10 and really it did what it needed to do there’s really three things that you really need in a winter shoe and that is one to keep your feet warm two to keep your feet dry and then three have enough traction so given that you know it did check those three boxes overall good stability so lots of positives I would say definitely worth checking out um if you are in the market for this if you do live in a seasonal area I don’t think you will be disappointed picking these up I hope you got some good information from this video
