The biggest names in golf shoes now utilize some form of the Boa Fit System. This unique closure eliminates messing with laces throughout your round in favor of a secure, truly custom fit. With just the turn of a dial, you can lock in your preferred fit and never worry about it coming loose during your round. See how it works in our exclusive video.
What Is BOA?
The Boa Fit System is a unique design that integrates a dial, lace, and guide configuration throughout the shoe to achieve the exact fit the athlete needs to perform at his or her best. It was originally developed for use on snowboard boots in 2001 for a safer, more secure, precision fit on the mountains. This system first came to the golf course in 2006 with FootJoy as their first partner. Now Boa is available on golf shoes from the biggest names on the course. Shoes with the Boa Fit System are instantly recognizable. Boa collaborates with each of its brand partners to develop a unique configuration and placement of their dial, lace, and guide system into every Boa shoe. Regardless of the placement of the dial, the system helps provide a better connection to your shoe through a custom fit – improving stability, control, and power.
Why Choose BOA?
- The number one reason to choose a Boa-equipped golf shoe is for an exact fit you can’t get anywhere else. With traditional laces, you can only tie them so many ways. Boa allows you to turn the dial and make micro-adjustments until the shoes fit exactly the way you need them to in order to perform at your peak.
- Another major reason to use Boa is the way it locks in the fit of your shoes. Traditional laces loosen and come untied as you walk, causing you to stop and adjust them throughout the day. Once you lock in your fit with the Boa dial, it stays exactly where you set it all round long. Not only do you get to adjust your shoes exactly the way you like them, you don’t have to worry about adjusting them as you play so you stay focused on your game.
- The third key reason to choose Boa is durability. This system does not wear out the way shoe laces do. But if something does happen, the Boa Fit System dials and laces are guaranteed for the lifetime of the product on which they are integrated.
BOA ON TOUR
With all of the stability, power, and control the Boa Fit System provides for golfers, it’s no surprise that professional golfers trust their game to shoes equipped with it.

Another popular Boa shoe on Tour is the adidas Tour360 EQT Boa. Jon Rahm currently wears it, as does Li Haotong.
FootJoy and adidas are not the only big-name golf shoe brands using the Boa Fit System. Some of the most popular styles to use this system include the ECCO Biom G3 Boa and the NIKE Vapor Pro Boa. No matter what style of shoe you prefer or fits best for you, you can find a model with the Boa Fit System and experience the benefits of ultra-durable, micro-adjustable performance.
