simple answer is yes, if you want to protect them from knocks/chips/bag chatter etc.. and to make them look their best over the time you have them. Only downside is you have to keep taking them off and on during the round and you may end up losing a few along the way, at least in my experience.

I have iron covers and though they do protect the irons, I keep loosing them. :(. I still plan on using them because it prevents all of the dings and chips on them. I am one of those people who like to keep my irons fresh looking

I do not worry about dings on my irons...they look better with age IMHO.

I buy irons every 5-8 years and trust in covers to keep them living their best life. Well, I should say I used to buy them at that cadence, my 6 month old irons unfortunately have wear equal to my previous 7 year played set. But asides from the cosmetics, the silence without the clanging about is probably the top characteristic I enjoy. I picked up a smokin deal on Amazon and have 3 sets for redundancy because once you lose one it sucks having to buy another set so everything matches but then you can’t find a 1:1 replacement.
