    How about the Footjoy Sports? Choice of 3 colours in white, white/blue and white/red.
    I've a pair of the Footjoy DryJoys and an old pair of Footjoy AQL's which I'm thinking of replacing with the Footjoy Sports. Supposed to be very comfortable and look modestly stylish also. Can't go wrong with Footjoy in my book although it did take me a long time to break in the DryJoys

    +1 on the footjoy sports. Picked up a pair for €110 a few weeks ago and love them. Very comfortable and waterproof.

    Got them from a place called the golf department in superquinn shopping centre, castletroy limerick. They were 125 in nevada bobs the same day so was happy with price.

    Are they light enough for summer use?

    Yes, I would consider them light. There not runner light, but light for an all weather golf shoe.

    I was in a similar quandry earlier in the year, tried on lots of shoes and ignored the pricing, when I settled on one to purchase I was surprised it was amongst the cheapest, Nike Heritage, seem to be plenty of them around the €50. Worn now for 3months and no issue regarding wet or comfort.

    I have the same ones and they are very comfortable. Not 100% waterproof though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,736 ✭✭✭ssbob



    Cheers for that, bought these today! Needed a new pair with age's but couldn't justify more than €100, if I get 18 months(2 winters) out of these I will be ecstatic):D

    Serious shoes those yokes. I say you could swim in them and still keep your feet dry. They got steel spikes though, are these still allowed or will the soft ones fit.

    They were my first pair of golf shoes


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 19,482 Mod ✭✭✭✭slave1


    I replaced the steel with soft spikes a while back, cheap China ones are fine...
