I am probably looking into interchangeable ones atm cuz my foot seems to be done growing for a while.. i can invest more in shoes.. any suggestions on great interchangeable shoes? try to stay under at least $150.. i want durable shoes that will work well into a year and that wont have holes worn into them like i do with my $40 glow skull shoes..

Dexter SST 8's or Look into the 3G Tour Ultras or any 3G shoe for that matter.

can look on www.900global.com for the 3G's.

The 3G's are a great shoe. Everyone that tries these bowling shoes loves their fit . The Tour Ultra's are made out of soft kangaroo leather. The shoes are lightweight and so comfortable you don't even know you have them on.

The 3G's have interchangeable soles and heels that you can customize your bowling shoe to you game. If you want more or less slide try the different sole and heel options to find your perfect slide or stop. The Tour Ultra's run somewhere around $130 -$135

the sst's are going to be a little more expensive, but i have the regular 3G's and those shoes are very comfortable and i got mine for 60 dollars. very good price for the interchangable soles.

Yeah i decided on SST 4's because the 6's were like 160 7's 170 8's 180. The 4's are 120.. and they didnt have any 3G or any of those.. just Etonic and Dexter =P

Could have got the 8's on Buddies for 134$ shipped, forgot to mention that part in my earlier post. Pro shops arent the best place for shoes, I do all of that part online, whole different price range.

Heres buddies shoes :

Personally thinking about getting the shufflers from 3G.

If you want to support your local proshop, I doubt they will have the 3G's or the Dexters under $150. Etonic has the Stabilite ESS that is under $120 >>> http://www.etonic.com/bowl/bowl_shoe_product.php?ID=men_stabilites And the all black ones are interchangeable as well now

Proshops are a tough place to buy shoes anymore.

Its the only thing that i wont buy at my proshop. I saved about 60 dollars ordering online.

I got a pair of the interchangeable ESS shoes through my Etonic sponsored league. Nice shoe, very different from my Tour Ultras but still a very comfortable shoe.

Ya its the same with bags too. I can't even come close to competing with the internet on bags.

I do that when I buy a ball... I have bought 5 balls for me two for my son and two for my wife all in about 2 1/2 months.. So the shoes bags wrist support etc.. I will buy online to save some money.
