    Anyone wearing these at the moment? Looking for comfort and waterproofing.
    Read that the spikes have a tendency to come loose!!
    Any info appreciated.
    Thanks

    I have them. They're a major upgrade from the regular dryjoys in terms of comfort & are perfectly waterproof. I've had no issues with the spikes coming loose and have been using them for anxious 2 months. Not the cheapest but well worth it IMO...

    +1 - had some credit and bought a pair - major upgrade from original dry joys. Very comfortable from the get go (played 36 holes first day I wore them!)

    I had the same experience with the FJ Sport and was told that there have been a number of returns on the FJ Sport for leaks. IMO, good alternative for the DNA is the FJ M project and they are down to 60 euro on Sports Direct - picked up 2 pairs. Play a lot and go through 1-2 pairs of shoes a year so not willing to shell out more than 100 euro a pair anymore.
    Would say this about the M project though, the spikes are low profile and the fastener connection is the "Fits Pins" which I don't think are as good as the other fastener systems and have had to replace a number of spikes after losing them during a round. If you lose a spike without and walk on a hard surface - tarmac etc, the connection point on the shoe is easily damaged which will make the replacement spike more prone to dalling off or may not connect again. The FJ DNA have the same faster system AFAIK.
