REVIEW: TRUE Linkswear TL-01 Shoes
While the style of the TRUE Linkswear TL-01 Shoes is big part of the story, the function of them is still the highlight. They are crazy light and super comfortable right out of the bag. The Nappa leather is ready to go immediately and it is surprising how light weight these shoes are. They have a sewn in sock liner and laces for a good tight fit. They might look more like a street shoe, but the new lug system that TRUE created for the sole offers amazing traction. I like the zero drop for walking and golfing comfort. While they don’t have TRUE’s 2 year waterproof guarantee, they do repel the elements enough for most golf. I’m not taking them out in monsoon rain, but a little dewy grass won’t bother your feet, nor with the 110* AZ heat.
The TRUE Linkswear TL-01 Shoes have one distinct difference from previous TRUEs and that is the height of the shoe through the arch area. While I don’t have tall arches, I do have “thicker” feet vertically. These shoes are thinner through the laces than their previous shoes. Basically this means they are just a little harder to put on because of the sewn in sock liner. Once they are on, I don’t notice any tightness at all, I just find them tight to slide on. I also went up a half of shoe size, which was a great call in these too, because they do run a little smaller than previous shoes. I’ve always been a 9 in TRUE, but these I’m back to my normal shoe size 9.5.
Not be overlooked when purchasing the TRUE Linkswear TL-01 Shoes is the canvas bag they come in. I really appreciate not having to deal with a cardboard box. This saves my recycling bin since the canvass bag is just packed in shipping bag. It takes up a lot less space and now I have this handy canvass bag for either my shoes or other accessories. It might not seem like a big deal, but it really is a nice feature that reduces waste and is useful beyond just holding shoes.
The TRUE Linkswear TL-01 Shoes are their most versatile shoe yet. I like how these stay true to their roots, yet break the mold a little in terms of style. If you want to wear TRUEs but need more style, these are the perfect shoe for you. The TRUE Linkswear TL-01 Shoes are the best anywhere, anytime shoe they’ve made. I love them on the course and just as much off the course. You will be shocked by how light they are, but also how functional and comfortable they are. These are their most versatile shoe yet.
