That dominance didn\u2019t happen by accident. It traces back to 1927, when a savvy FootJoy sales rep, Miles Baker, convinced the U.S. Ryder Cup team to lace up in FJ shoes at the first-ever matches. That team won handily, and Johnny Farrell \u2014 a team member \u2014 kept his pair on en route to a U.S. Open title the following year. Word spread, and when shoe counts became official in 1945, FootJoy was already firmly established.<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"gnt_em_img_i\" style=\"height:439px\" fetchpriority=\"high\" data-g-r=\"lazy\" data-gl-src=\"https:\/\/www.fogolf.com\/gear\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/84135057007-fj-54552-04.jpg\" data-gl- decoding=\"async\" alt=\"FootJoy &quot;Legends Series&quot; Drop III Premiere Packard golf shoes.\"\/><\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">To mark the 80-year streak, FootJoy is releasing Drop III of its Legends Series \u2014 this one based on the sleek Premiere Series Packard.
