These FootJoy icons are a departure from FJ's "Classics" that go back to 1959. Due to this crappy economy, FJ has closed one of its plants in Brocton, MA. I'm a big FootJoy guy and really don't mess around with too many other brands. The reason is because comfort is Priority 1 for me, and my FJs are "good to go" from the time I took them out of the box. I'm still sporting my FJ Contours, and they are holding up great.
Let's take a closer look at all the technology packed into this Icon (and there's a lot to see). The Icon combines a lot of the technology used in some of their previous lines. The uppers are made of premium leather with calfskin and have a two-year waterproof warranty. Inside, the shoe is a full leather lining and a slip-resistant foot bed. The tongue and collar contain memory foam to form fit to your foot, and the heel has a microfiber counter to give you even more slip resistance.
Bottom line is, this is a high-performance shoe that is geared for stability, comfort, and protection from the elements. I'm not sure what else you'd want from a shoe except maybe fashion. I'm no fashion expert, but I'd say they're pretty handsome-looking as well.
