Bowling shoes typically come with a leather upper, rubber sole, and shoe laces. They are designed to help bowlers slide easily on the lane.

Bowling shoes come in two types, depending on the user’s skill level. Some shoes look like ordinary running shoes while others are made of cowhide uppers and sliding heels. They are available in a variety of colors for men, women, and children.

Choosing Bowling Shoes (Buying Tips)

Fit: Choose bowling shoes that fit well. Try placing a thumb or finger in the space between your heel and shoe’s edge. If one thumb fits, you have the correct size of shoes. Walk around with your bowling shoes you intend to buy to make sure that they do not slide of slip off easily.

Materials: Consider bowling shoes that are made of genuine leather, because this material allows the feet to breathe.
