Shoelaces are so 2016. You’ve probably seen the Boa closure system on FootJoy shoes in the past, but now more companies are using similar technology in their shoes. This year at the PGA show Ecco and Adidas are showing shoes that use Boa, and Puma has a similar technology on some of their shoes as well. You spin the dial to tighten your shoes, and then pop it up to loosen. The point of the technology is to provide a more secure, exact fit. Though boa is just now starting to make a big presence in golf, this type of closure system has found success in other sports: Running, skiing, climbing, and cycling all have products with Boa. --
