Puma Ignite Proadapt golf shoe, excessive wrinkling

[wings02]

I just received a pair of Puma ignite Proadapt golf shoes from The Golf Warehouse. They are the 2019 model on sale for $129.00, originally $249. First off I noticed a little corrosion on the shoelace eyelet. No big deal, but strange. They run very big so I ordered a size 10. I usually take an 11 in Adidas or similar.  I tried one of the shoes on and must say, they were very comfortable. I notices a lot of wrinkling around the area where the shoe normally bends when you walk, slightly forward from mid foot. Although this is a normal wear area, it was bad when I took the shoe off after literally taking less than 20 steps in the house. I really like the look and comfort of this shoe but it does not appear they will hold up for too long. If anyone else has this model, have you noticed excessive wear as I am describing?

Can you post a pic?  I may have these.  If so, mine have held up well, they are really comfortable, just a bit heavy.

I actually just got them. Here is the area that I mean. Sorry for the upside down photo

I've had several pairs of this model.  It looks like they are too wide in the mid foot for you.  Quality leather uppers and I have no doubt they will still serve you well. 

 

Odd side note: I took a 9.5 in this model.   With this years ProAdapt Delta I had to go to a 10.5 to get the same fit.  I do like the Delta's but not as much as the Ignite.
