Footjoy Spikeless Classics Dry Premiere
FootJoy Spikeless Classics Dry Premiere
If soft spikes are better than metal cleats, then perhaps spikeless golf shoes are the next wave.
The FootJoy Spikeless Classics feature calfskin leather uppers, combined with what FootJoy calls an “Intellishield Extreme” membrane (I can’t stand the “trendy” use of the word “extreme”, but that’s neither here nor there). Footjoy says that pores in the membrane open as they get hot to release heat and moisture. As the temperature falls, the pores provide insulation by closing. It also manages to be waterproof throughout.
The soles are the key to a “spikeless” design, though. Footjoy says that its DuraMax outsole offers superior turf gripping properties—without the need for spikes. The tread consists of a great many small “nubs” with cross hatched
I’m interested in trying a pair of spikeless shoes to see how they work. It occurs to me that they might actually be better for walking.

I’m trying to get some information on Footjoy’s DuraMax Sole. Will the sole last as long as a sole with replacable soft spikes? My fear is the nubs will wear off long before the show wears out.
