Comments about Dexter Mens SST 8 Black/Red Right or Left Hand:

These are great feeling shoes. Very comfortable. The only thing is the slide 8 sole is not enough for me but I don't want to slide a lot. Other than that, I picked the perfect shoes for stability in my approach.

Comments about Dexter Mens SST 8 Black/Red Right or Left Hand:

I love being able to change out the soles/heels on both shoes. Being a bowler who bowls at several houses with different types of lanes/approaches between wood and synthetic it really makes things a lot easier having the ability to make the slide soles/heels slide more or less based on the conditions. And being someone who drags his toes being able to have a slide sole on the right foot as well as the left is great for me. They were pretty stiff when I first got them but broke in within a couple weeeks.

Comments about Dexter Mens SST 8 Black/Red Right or Left Hand:

I've been using a pair of Linds for about the past 15 years. I was looking for something that would give me better control on different approaches. These shoes out of the box are a bit stiff. I've bowled about 9 games in mine now, and they are starting to break in. I'm definitely more comfortable now. You will need to take some time to practice before putting the shoes in use.

Comments about Dexter Mens SST 8 Black/Red Right or Left Hand:

The non slding sole is already separating from the shoe and will not stay adhered after only using these shoes 3 times

Bowling.Com Response: I’m sorry to hear about the problems you have encountered with your shoes. The traction pad peeling is due to your style of bowling. You most likely have an assertive approach or sweep your foot behind you as you release your shot. Dexter's product development has created the Max Powerstep T3+ to help prolong the life of your shoes. You can check it out here: http://www.bowling.com/products/dexter-max-powerstep-t3-.htm. Please let us know if I can answer any other questions.

Comments about Dexter Mens SST 8 Black/Red Right or Left Hand:

The shoe is very comfortable. I bowl a number of different approach conditions and the supplied slide soles have allowed me to adapt to all. I do find I use the S10 by far the most. This is my first adjustable and the non-slide sole took a little getting used to as they are very "grippy". However after a few games it felt good. I had a choice, new ball or new shoes and I am glad I went with these shoes. Their adaptability gave me that "confidence" on the approach that I as lacking.

Comments about Dexter Mens SST 8 Black/Red Right or Left Hand:

The shoe is great, what you expect from Dexter. The leather is shiney and I do not like that at all. Also the shoe covers that come with them start falling apart after the first use.
