By James V from Long Island NY
Pros:
BOA (hope it lasts), Comfort, Style
Cons:
Aggressive Braking
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Super Comfortable and sweet looking pair of shoes.
Very comfortable shoe. I was a bit leery about the BOA system but it actually is really awesome. I just am not sure at this time if it will last. The wire they use is super thin, but I guess that helps to keep the mechanisms functioning smooth as easy. As another user commented, the heel on the slide shoe is a tad aggressive for me. I will be putting on a "7" from my old shoe to produce the longer slide I am accustomed too. They are sharp looking and the color shifting is very apparent with the lighting in my bowling alley . Some others have stated that this effect was a bit lacking but not for me. I hope to have these as long as I had my old Dexters. I am a 10 in regular shoes but always get 9.5 in my Dexters if that helps anyone. Nice work on a cool and comfortable pair of shoes

Cons:
The slide shoe heel attachment
Best Uses:
None
Bottom Line:

The juries still out!
My only complaint was the slide shoe heel attachment brakes to hard for me and throws my rhythm off. Other than that this is another solid shoe made by Dexter and it looks like I won't be buying another pair of shoes again for the next 10-15 years. ??????

Showed up late. Not as vibrant as pictured. Same size ive worn my whole life is suddenly way too big. Not the most comfortable
Customer Questions & Answers | Reviews
Question:
shoes size 7.5 is this shoe a true fit?
7/9/2019 - By csmittyHave an answer to this question?
Answer:
The shoe size question is one that we often get but unfortunately it is not one that we can give a definite answer on. We do have some reviews where customers say this shoe runs big and we have heard from some bowlers that it runs small compared to their other shoes. For the large majority of people that get this shoe they stick with the first size and so we do not advertise that it runs small or large because we do not have enough feedback one way to determine if it is large or small. I would suggest to get your normal shoe size and also consider the True Fit Guarantee which would cover your exchange expenses to get the next size up or down on this if the first size did not fit. I am sorry I could not give a more definitive answer on this.

Question:
If the BOA strings break can I just replace them with a regular shoe string?
1/31/2020 - By RonHave an answer to this question?
Answer:
The BOA lace must be replaced with another BOA lace. It cannot be substituted with a standard shoe lace unfortunately. If you have any issues just contact us back and we can see if Dexter can send a replacement BOA lace.

Question:
I’ll purchase the decker 9s with the wire shoestring I know how to train him but I’m not sure how to loosen them up I think I’m doing something wrong could you tell me how to loose the wire
9/6/2020 - By JayHave an answer to this question?
Answer:
To loosen the BOA system lift up on the turn dial. This should release the line so that you can flex your foot and remove it from the shoe. Then press the turn dial back in to start tightening it again.
