Unfortunately I have to agree with Emma about the Delaveagas. A very comfortable shoe right out of the box, and I personally don't mind the styling. But, the waterproofing is really inadequate, and after only a few months and less than 15 rounds of golf the soles on mine are already starting to come apart. The same thing I saw happen to a cardmate's brand new pair at Worlds.
I really, really appreciate the support Keen gives the disc golf community and their willingness to even manufacture a disc golf shoe and I currently own several other pair of Keen footwear which I love. Stick a Vibram sole on these babies and I'll be back.
