Pros:

interchangeable slide pads, no coming untied

Cons:

no cons about this pair of shoes

Best Uses:

any approach sticky or slippery, just get the right slide pad

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

best pair of shoes i've had yet.

These shoes are the best pair I've had yet. The interchangeable slide pads is a big help. With the nob to tighten it instead of shoe laces you'll never have to worry about your shoes loosening. These are great shoes and are affordable.

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Great Shoes!! Very comfortable

I purchased these shoes to replace a pair of Strike Force shoes that I could not get to slide and that left my feet hurting by the end of the night at league. These shoes had great slide right out of the box and are very comfortable, my feet felt as good at the end of the night as they did when I put them on.

Light and Airy

I have alway preferred leather for my sporting shoes, but this is Florida and between heat and humidity feet sweat. These shoes are Breathable, well ventilated and the BOA system ensures stability as well as comfort.
I only wish there were an extra slide pad and a shoe protector. Will they last? Time will tell.

5/5 Stars
Pros:

BOA system, affordable, comfortable, lightweight, modern, practical, stylish

Cons:

NONE

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comfortable, stylish, and practical!

I bought these shoes to replace an older pair of Dexter's that lasted me for about 10 years. I definitely wanted to get something with a replaceable slide sole as that seems like a great way to prolong the life of the shoe. There are so many options out there, it's a bit overwhelming. It also didn't help that there were almost no reviews on most of the shoes I was looking at. Hopefully, this review can make someone's life easier.
PROS
1) Very Comfortable - I never buy shoes online because I am always afraid that even if they do fit, they won't feel comfortable. I gambled on these shoes and won. Very comfortable and lightweight.
2) BOA Lacing System - At first, I thought this was just a gimmick. My first thought was "what happens when/if the system breaks". I did some research though, and BOA has been doing this with all different types of shoes for years now. Most importantly though, they have a LIFETIME GUARANTEE on their system. This gives me peace of mind, that if for some reason the system ever did break, I wouldn't be without this pair of shoes for long. Overall though, the system works really well and offers you the ability to make the shoes as loose or tight as you want.
3) Practical - They just work. It took me only a few shots in practice to adjust from my old Dexter's to these.
CONS - none
DISCLAIMER
For me, these shoes are great since sliding isn't a huge part of my approach. For someone who is more sensitive to lane tackiness depending on the weather or the house, these shoes may not be the best choice, and it may be wise to spend the extra money for shoes with replaceable soles AND heels. This pair only has the replaceable sole on the slide foot. The heel on the slide foot, as well as the sole/heel on the right foot are non-replaceable.
OVERALL IMPRESSION
While I only have thrown with these shoes for a few games, I already like them a lot. They work perfectly with my game. I look forward to being able to wear these shoes for years!

Pros:

I like the quick lace ratcheting system

Cons:

Can’t get the sole insert to stay in place

Best Uses:

No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Sole insert will not stay in place

Have to readjust the sole insert every couple frames. Have only used these for a few months. My last pair of Dexter shoes lasted 10 years. I’m ready to throw these in the garbage and try another. Feel like I wasted my money on these

Question:


I normally take 10-1/2 for dress shoes, 11 or 11-1/2 for runers. What size should I order for these shoes?

9/23/2019 - By

Have an answer to this question?

Answer:


The shoe size question is hard to know unfortunately. This shoe is designed more like an athletic shoe so I would start with that but I would also suggest the True Fit Guarantee option just in case you needed to switch up or down on the shoe after trying it on.
