A good average shoe
I got back into bowling and these were the cheapest non rental shoes I could find.They are holding up well I have a few hundred games on them and they’re still pretty fresh.I wish the sole was serviceable and that’s my complaint is when the slide sole goes I’ll probably have to get new shoes.

bowling shoes
I tried to slide without my bowling ball when I first put on my new bowling shoes. They did not slide. It was almost like they had suction cups on the bottom of the shoe! The shoes stopped but, I didn't, falling on my face right down the alley! Did I mention they oil the alleys before our league starts? Ugh! What a mess. My old shoes were falling apart so, I had to do something. I'm not a good bowler with a 140+ average. I keep trying and, I'm starting to get used to the fact that these shoes don't slide like the old ones used to. I guess the most important thing is that the shoes are comfortable. So, I guess I will get used to the fact that they don't slide like the old ones? Since I bought the new shoes my bowling average has dropped three pins. :-( I'm not going to give up on the new shoes because they do feel good. I'll just have to get used to the new slide. I've been using some kind of powder that has been giving me a little better slide. The shoes do seem to be well built?

Husband loves them!
I bought my husband these bowling shoes not knowing he purchased a different pair at the bowling alley apparel store that cost $50 more than these. He stated that he prefer this brand more! They have more slide to them and are very comfortable.

Pay for themselves after just five visits
Size ran perfect for me. I ordered the size I generally wear for shoes and they fit. As an added, not mentioned in the description bonus, I received confidence in my pathetic bowling skills. These shoes had me bowling the best games of my life. I bowled a 100 almost every game and I didn't even use bumpers!All kidding aside, the shoes fit well. They were affordable, which is what I was looking for. I am not a regular bowler. I just wanted something I could use when taking my kids for the "kids bowl free" (but shoes are not included and you end up spending more on shoe rental for a game of bowling you had no intention of doing until you got an offer for a "free" game) summer program. I appreciated the offer from the local bowling alley, and having my own shoes helped make the program afffordable for our family. They also look better than those silly shoes they rent at the alley.

Brought his average from 130 to 180!
I got these shoes for my Dad. He is in a bowling league and previously had shoes that he didn't really like. He LOVED these shoes! He said they were comfortable, he liked the slip/grip on them, and he even said other people at his league were jealous. They were true to size. We have yet to see how durable they are though.

True to size
I would have given it five stars had the slide pads conformed to the shoe better. That being said, I don’t know how all the reviews that I read said the shoe runs about a size larger THAT IS NOT TRUE IN MY CASE I am an 11 1/2 and they fit like an 11 1/2.Overall I am happy with them However I have not used them yet so I don’t know durable they are. Time will tell

Shoes are garbage
The media could not be loaded. Have had 6 weeks and slide area is already worn to rubber. Save your money. Unless you like shoes that won't last a simple bowling season. Almost broke my neck because of the poor quality. Darker area on sole is where their microfiber is worn to rubber

Great delivery, arrived exactly when they said it would
Great delivery, arrived exactly when they said it would. Shoe is exactly the size they advertised. Read comments here before I ordered that shoes were oversize, NOT true. As a result I ordered shoes 1/2 size smaller believing what I read and the shoe fits very very snug. Not enough to send back as this is just my entry level shoe. I just got them to stop paying for the rentals and those are much more uncomfortable than these are. Not to mention thinking about who's feet has been in them.Just a heads up, the size is correct at least they are here in Canada. Don't order smaller.I don't expect these to last much past our bowling season. Realistically you get what you pay for. But for sure well worth the saving over rentals.

Great shoes, great price
Really comfy nice bowling shoes at a great price. Shoes are $2 to rent here so these shoes paid for themselves before the end of their 1st league season.
