Don't like 'em...

EH? 195 notes for a pair of shoes. No thanks, they look like you get them on a free prescription.

Don't care what they look like, feel like or whatever.
I can't pay 200 quid for a pair of shoes....

Ah yeah, but that's the "recommended retail price". Give it time.......
I think Icons have a RRP of similar but you can pick them up for £120.00 a pair if you shop around.
I bought a pair of Icons a month or so ago. I do like them. Love the styling and they are comfortable.
But the most comfortable pair I own are a pair of £49.99 AQL's. They are like carpet slippers to wear, you hardly know you've got them on your feet. Totally waterproof too. They will be the ones going to Turkey with me next May...

I hope the manufacturing quality has improved.

I bought 2 pairs of synr-g's when they first came out. Fantastic shoe for the first 6 months, then the insides started falling to bits. I have contours at the moment, had them since February but now the sole is just starting to come away from the leather upper on the crease line.

I think the FJ quality has been very poor the last 3-4 years, and I'm seriously thinking of changing brands after being loyal to them for about 15 years.

Are you sure they weren't your slippers??

Silly price for a pair of 'shoes' that quite frankly look like ugly trainers.

Cant beat the understated, plain black AQL's. Fair price, comfortable and look like a shoe.

Not a fan of the trainer type golf shoes, Adidas especially.

They're probably the first influence of FILA Korea who bought Acushnet earlier this year, awful looking things.
