Looking at Nike SP8 TW Tour limited editions, Adidas 360 tour, Adidas 360 II Hot Shot Tour, and FJ Dryjoys.

Just want input on comfort levels, how much breaking-in is needed, and traction levels.

I am about 50/50 riding walking
Thanks to all that reply...

I purchased some Adidas Tour 360's last month, love them. I feel like I can better brace my right leg with them, and they're very comfortable.

Can't say anything about adidas but the Nike SP-8 Tours are the most comfortable shoe for me I ever bought. Hold up well after 100 plus rounds this year. A little cleaning and they look great.

Recently ( within the last three months) I got two new pairs of shoes, the Ecco Classic Saddle GTX and the FootJoy DryJoys (model #53614).
They are both very comfortable shoes and very stylish. You can't go wrong with either, but if you do like to walk the course, I'd strongly recommend you to take a look at the Ecco's. The Dryjoys are probably the most comfortable shoe I've had from FootJoy (can't afford the Classics), but the Eccos fit like a glove from day one ( no breaking in to those babies! ).
As I said before, you just can't go wrong with either of these.
Hope this helps.

Second the Eccos' - especially the 'cool ribbons' - they seem to wrap around the foot really nicely. Comfortable with far less paddding than usual. BUT - they have the quik twist (or whatever its called) spikes ie only 90 degree turn to fit.... which fall out easily. Buy a tube of silicone to keep the feckers in when you get a pair!

Most comfortable shoes I have owned.

TGW has the Nike TW sp8's on closeout now for $129,....adidas are 179...ecco's are 179...so im thinking about puling the trigger on the nike's just worried about the air bubble popping.

Adidas Tour 360's.

Still on my first pair after a year.

Never once gone wrong.

Try the tour 360's or the puma gtxs both great shoes!

Strongly recommend you try the Ecco's. They make both traditional and fashion forward styles depending on which you like. The leather is more durable, comfortable, and water proof then any other shoe I have tried.

No break in needed at all. Great for walking. I still have a pair purchased four years ago, still in great shape. I do take care of my stuff, but still amazed. I also wear their street shoes, so they get most of my business. The addidas are pretty impressive but I'm not even tempted. One of the best products in any category of golf equipement.

if your after ultimate comfort try out a shoe from the BITE series!!

I just got a pair of the new Dryjoys with the PODs (the conservative looking uppers). I must say they're pretty comfortable. Easily as comfortable as my Powerbands. However, they do seem to require a bit of break in time. Definitely not the same out of the box comfort I've experienced with Adidas shoes I've had.

If I had to pick one shoe on the market now, it would be the Tour 360 II hands down.

Thanks guys...I like the look of the Adidas 360II's...Ecco's maybe comfortable, but I haven't seen a style that I like. Looks like A360's for me

Also...what is the difference between A. 360 II Hot Shot and the A. 360 II?? Looks only like color options?
