The Stuburt Evolve Classic shoes I was given to test were size 10 and I am glad that they were, even though I wear size nine street shoes, and in Footjoys I am a 9.5. The Evolve Classics in size 10 were comfortable and certainly not excessively roomy. I doubt a 9 would have fitted me, and a 9.5 may have been too much of a squeeze—this shoe does come in half sizes between size 7 and 11.
If you are unsure of which size to go for, perhaps opt for larger of the two sizes. That had also been my experience with the only other Stuburt shoes that I have worn – the Stuburt XP Casual Golf Shoe.

Moving onto the specific testing, the Stuburt Evolve Classics are waterproof golf shoes. They coped with walking through wet rough fine, but I did not play in them in rain in any of my three rounds wearing them. So I put them in a basin of water and no water got in. The tongue is not loose, but fixed at its bottom and sides to the—which makes it harder to put on the shoes, especially as the collar on the heel is—but this aids the waterproofing. I filled the basin so that water washed over the tongue.

The shoes come in three colors, black, French navy and white. The shoes cannot be cleaned perfectly by just wiping a damp cloth over them as this still left smears of mud. The shoes are predominantly leather and required a proper clean with shoe polish when they became muddy.
The shoes are spikeless, and gave perfect traction whether during the swing or in walking up and down potentially slippery-when-wet slopes on the golf course. Despite being spikeless and dimple-less, as the shoes design falls somewhere between traditional golf shoes and casual shoe, I am not sure that many people would wear them away from a golf setting. This does limit versatility but given the budget price of these shoes, this is not that much of an issue.
