Bottom Line:

Perfect!
Over the years, I have struggled to find a good left-hand shoe. With supply chain issues, it's become almost impossible. When I saw these on sale, I jumped to buy a pair and I'm glad I did. Out of the box they fit like they are almost broken in. They fit true to size and are reasonably stylish (for bowling shoes). The standard slide that comes with the shoe is a bit too "sticky" for my home lanes, so the option to choose different soles is great! I would never give a 10/10 review, (there's always something to improve on) but a 9/10 for these...absolutely!

Best bowling shoes I've owned!
These are some awesome shoes. I just got them yesterday in time before league night and the fitted just right. The shoes look better than in the pics and feel so comfortable. I'm ocd about how my shoes feel and always want the same amount of tightness on both and thenew Boa system really makes it easier and convenient for quick use.

The no slide bowling shoe
Very expensive disappointed they're not usable for me. Microfiber sole sucks compared to leather one s of the past. Will return. Better off buying cheap shoes and a slide sock.

Question:
To make this for a left handed bowler, I have heard that additional soles need to be purchased besides the slide sole itself.. and if so what is the additional cost of this..??
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
The soles and heels on the shoes are not curved so you can put the slide sole on either foot and the traction sole on either foot and make this shoe work for right or left handed bowlers without purchasing any extra soles. If you need a more or less slide then you can purchase new soles and heels but out of the box this can work for eight handed bowler.

Question:
Do you have them for left hand
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
This shoe is designed to work for both right or left handed bowlers. The soles and heels come off of both shoes and they are not shaped to only fit one foot. The pads can be put on either foot and you can make this work as a right handed shoe or left handed shoe just by switching the pads to the other foot.

Are these shoes true to size or run big
Have an answer to this question?

It is hard to know how the shoe will fit compared to other shoes you have. We offer a True Fit option which can help you exchange the shoes up or down on on the same shoe model if you needed a different size and it makes this exchange quicker, easier, and cheaper. We would suggest this option if you have never had this brand of shoe before.

Does the slide pad automatically come put on the right shoe or the left?
Have an answer to this question?

It is more common for the slide pad to come on the left shoe set up as a right handed shoe but the pads can fit either shoe so you can switch to the other shoe and it will fit perfectly on either shoe.

Question:
I have the Dexter SSt8 Power frame shoes and need a longer slide replacement What specificially do i order? /the came with the S8
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
For the soles that work with the SST 8 Power Frame shoes you would need to look at the SST soles. Also, Dexters system is designed so that the higher the number on the slide or heel, the more the shoe will slide. The lower the number on the sole or heel the more it will brake. So to slide more than the original S8 you would need a higher number like S9, S10, S11, or S12. Also, it may depend on what size shoe you have as to which size sole to get. There are some soles that are larger or oversized for some of the larger sized shoes so keep this mind when looking.
