While my Ecco's are a little superior in comfort and quality to the Footjoy Dryjoys, I just can't justify them being "twice as nice". Which in relation to the fact that I aways get the $134 Dry joys on clearance each year for $79-$89, and the Ecco are rarely on clearance and at $160. I would also mention the Ecco's run a little narrow because of the stitching, while were I wear a Medium my feet are a little wider than that and take a little to even break in the footjoys. I couldn't even get the Hydromax version of the Ecco's on my feet, and the others took a few rounds to break in.
Something else I noticed strange with the ecco's, the laces gave way after just a few rounds. Kinda strange.
I guess if I could get the Ecco's for just $25 more as the retail prices would suggest, I would prefer them. However taking into consideration the Dryjoys or Dryjoy Pros are basically buy one get on free in relation to Ecco's, I just can't buy them.
My wife on the other hand, who I might add is not real big on shopping for either shoes or even clothes for that matter, now has 5 pairs of of Eccos. She even gave away perfectly good Footjoys in order to make room for them. At this point they are the only golf shoe she will ever buy.
