Bowling Shoes?

[gopunk]

i want to get a pair because i'm tired of renting... what is a good brand? any tips on what to look for?

 

[Pacfanweb]

Dexter is a good, inexpensive brand.

Linds is a good, expensive brand.

There are a few others, but those are the most common. I use Linds, personal preference.

 

[Zim Hosein]

I had Dexter's a long time ago and was quite pleased w/ them, light and slipper like

If you're not bowling seriously, you can just get a el cheapo pair from Kmart or a sporting goods store. They'll do just fine for casual use.

If you're getting serious, you need the better shoes.

Inexpensive is a relative term I guess, look at the prices for some golf shoes, amazingly high considering your feet don't move much throughout your swing, and then you hop into a golf cart to where your ball landed

The Jedi could be among us....

For me breaking 100 is not bad, 110 is good, 120 is really good. I suck.

Bowling sounds.... interesting though.

Try Here. Big selection of shoes in every price range from under $15 to well over $100.

 

[arcain]

Just get a cheapo pair from the Pro Shop. I have a $20 pair of Dexter's. They're white and very plain, but they fit and they're cheap. You probably don't need the ones with the different soles for the left and right shoe with interchangeable soles for different surfaces.

 

[Pacfanweb]

Dexter also makes some inexpensive shoes. Look at that link under "sport" shoes. You definitely don't need SST's.

Linds are expensive, but worth it if you're serious like me.
