FJ Classics Dry Premiere

[CJL]

I've really had my eye on these but am unsure if they will fit my needs. I walk most of the time and play 4-5 days each week when the weather permits in upstate NY. I tend to go through other FJs quite quickly (dryjoys). Would these be good walking shoes? How long do you think they would last me? I'd hate to spend that much coin on shoes that won't be ultra durable, comfortable, etc.

I think you might be better off with more than one pair if you're playing that often. All leather shoes should only be worn one day on - one day off, to give them time to breathe. Even though I usually only play once or twice a week, I still have have a pair of white FJ eComforts and a black pair of black eComforts which I alternate each week. Maybe you'd be better off with two solid pairs of shoes instead of one awesome pair that will get worn out very quickly. Good luck with your choice, in my opinion you can't go wrong with any Footjoys.

If they are the shoes I am thinking of I don't think they would be good for walking. Probably very comfortable, but very heavy. If you do get them, get some cedar shoe trees to put in them after every round. They will absorb some of the sweat and they will last longer.

Classics Tours would be better for walking... Lighter sole, more durable IMO... I have several pair that are great... Cedar shoe trees are a must... Better get the Classics line now if you want them, FootJoy is closing the plant that mfgs them
