Duca del Cosma Delago Golf Boots Review - Playing Your Best When Temperatures are Down

I have a confession to make.  I wear golf boots.  I like golf boots.  And hands down, the new Duca del Cosma Delago boots are the best golf boots I've ever worn.  You're not merely surviving cold weather golf with Delago, you're conquering it.

Seemingly modeled on the Duca Eldorado golf shoes (and you probably already know how much I love my Eldorados), Delago feature the same soft Italian Nappa leather, high-grip spikeless outsoles, and memory foam insoles with additional cork support in the heel.  And that means Delago are a top-notch combination of comfort and stability.
