FootJoy Classics Golf Shoes - Reviews

On 2004-06-28, Georgia golfer rated this FootJoy Classics a 3...(3808)



Purchase: Purchased at Pro Shop
Pros: Gore tex lining. Classic looks.
Cons: After 3 years of use a $250 pair of shoes split across the bottom on both shoes. Foot Joy was not receptive to problem.
Quality: At first I thought the construction was perfect. However, after time the materials used were not very good.

Review Summary: Even though the shoes were out of their warranty period, I didn't expect a shoe of this price to disintegrate. I always placed cedar shoe trees in the shoes when not in use.

Purchase: Purchased these shoes through a discount golf store for $150.
Pros: I initially liked the aesthetics, classic look and overall quality of shoe. If there were one item of golf equipment I wouldn't want to skimp on I thought it would be shoes.
Cons: Shoes were heavier and required higher maintenance than I anticipated.
Quality: The construction is terrific. I have never seen a seam split, leather begin to show wear or spikes come loose as I have witnessed in other shoes. Overall, it's probably the best constructed shoe on the market...but make no mistake, you do pay for it.

Review Summary: The purchase of this shoe really is dicated on whether the majority of your golf is played walking or riding the course. At first the shoe was very stiff after walking a few rounds. They never really felt as if they became broken in. Also, per Footjoy's instructions, I meticulously applied waterproofing, shoe oils, post play cleaning instructions, etc.... The non "dry" models hold water like a sponge and begin to feel like concrete boots after a wet round. You feet and legs will hurt in damp conditions. In dry conditions they are fine and comfortable but still heavy compared to less expensive, lighter brands. Keep this in mind. Also after spending so much I feel almost obliged not to scatch them or or get them dirty. Upkeep is time consuming. Find somebody at your club to keep them in shape.
