Shoes

Take a look into what we could consider a complete league bag setup. This list covers all the necessities for most casual league bowlers. Keep in mind you do have other alternatives to the items we’ve highlighted. Some people might carry more than what we have listed, while some may not need everything we’ve covered.

One of the main features found in performance bowling shoes is interchangeable slide soles and brake heels. This feature allows you to replace just the soles or heels (the quickest part to wear out) and get more life out of your shoes. It also allows you to adjust how much you slide by offering varying levels of soles and heels.

Like any pair of shoes, your bowling shoes will see normal wear and tear throughout the year.  Avid bowlers may go through multiple pairs of bowling shoes in a single season.  With a little care, you can help your bowling shoes last longer and perform better.

Having your own pair of bowling shoes can be just as important as having your own ball. Bowling centers provide shoes available for rent, but at an average of $5 per visit, renting can quickly add up to become uneconomical.
