There is a design flaw

There is a design flaw in the base of the front plain bearing. The rubber of the sock hangs on the slider. So when you push off to move the rubber off the track in front of the slider, you're causing the bowler to suddenly stop and fall instead of sliding to your release. Very comfortable, but otherwise everything is fine.

Pros
  • Good quality at a good price and true to size.
Cons
  • Limited color options

Comfortable bowling shoes

I won't say they've improved my game, but I've bowled them a few times and they're comfortable. Here I decided after reading reviews of various sneakers and not wanting to spend money. Big money for bowling shoes. They probably cost more than they cost, but I like them.

Pros
  • They are light and comfortable. They glide well. It's been 6 sessions so far, so good. RHB.
Cons
  • The insole started falling apart after less than a season. Definitely light and comfortable beyond that.

Nice bowling shoes, hope they last

I enjoyed this shoe although I will find that the quality of the material is lower than expected. As I only wear them for bowling I expect and hope they will last.

Pros
  • Order 1/2 size larger I think, but my son says they fit.
Cons
  • Not suitable for people with flat feet

Excellent quality in my rating

This shoe has helped me improve my game by providing a consistent fit every time I bowl compared to indoor shoes. Great shoes for your money.

Pros
  • Great gift. He loves her. A new style!!
Cons
  • Lack of arch support

New bowling shoes! 👍

After over 8 years without bowling I was surprised to find that my bowling shoes had died a horrible death in my bag! I searched and found these Strikeforce shoes. They fit perfectly, are incredibly comfortable and look amazing!

Pros
  • true size. Very light and comfortable
Cons
  • Very expensive

Way Small my pros and cons

I like the shoes, they seem to be of good quality, they came early, but all my shoes are a size 10, I ordered the 10 and I can't even put them on. Sent them back and ordered size 11, they haven't arrived yet. I will update when I try them on. UPDATE: I just got a size 11, much better, still a bit tight but will try them out at the track tomorrow.

Pros
  • Very convenient
Cons
  • The black rubber part of the bolt came loose and had to be re-glued.

Good for the first few months.

These shoes have been great for months. I bought them last June (2021). I have used these shoes less than 20 times and they are already ripped and broken in the shoe. It's very uncomfortable. The slide pad on the bottom is also flush with the rest of the shoe, so it doesn't really perform like a regular bowling show. I probably wouldn't buy them again because this product is so cheap.

Pros
  • They look great, bowled twice with them and feel great.
Cons
  • Replacement soles can be unreliable, resulting in inconsistent performance.

Nice and comfortable weak slide

I bought a pair of men's KR Strikeforce Aviator Black/Blue bowling shoes to replace a very old pair of shoes that were worn out. These shoes look amazing and feel great at a price cheap enough to outperform high-end shoes ($69.95 at time of purchase). The only downside is that the glide is a little weak. So if you need a smooth, smooth glide, you'd better buy something more expensive. If you just want a pair of nice, comfortable bowling shoes so you don't have to rent a run-down shoe every…

Pros
  • Were a bit tight, had to loosen them .... and
Cons
  • May take time to crack

Comfortable but firm

My husband loves how comfortable they were right out of the box. The only problem was that he almost landed on his butt the first time he stepped in the bowl. It stuck rather than slipped. The rubber part of the shoe at the toe protruded above the felt. He fixed it himself by shaving off the rubber.

Pros
  • I'm left handed and this shoe works great. Much more comfortable and hygienic than slippers.
Cons
  • good shoes, must use slip socks with them!!!

Leaves footprints on the ground

The shoes are great but the way my son slides leaves black marks on the floor with his right foot which interferes with the approach and can be an injury...so he can't use these shoes. Except for those great shoes

Pros
  • I recently ordered a pair for myself and I liked them so much that I ordered them for my husband. Very convenient.
Cons
  • May not be the right size for all customers

Fits like a glove, good for me

These shoes are very comfortable and light. I don't like laces but other than that they're a good pair of bowling shoes for the recreational bowler.

Pros
  • I can't say I hate them, I only play once a week but for now they're doing their job
Cons
  • I'm having a hard time adapting to my game. I can't move smoothly across the floor

Great comfortable shoes!

These shoes are very comfortable! I have wide feet and I usually wear a size 13 or 12, but a size 12 fits these shoes perfectly! Very good ventilation, my feet don't sweat like they usually do with indoor bowling shoes. Whether you're a beginner or an advanced bowler, these shoes will improve your game with their consistency on every set.

Pros
  • Great fit. Look pretty too.
Cons
  • I had to tape the bottom of the shoes/soles back! Both soles were loose. No time for returns and such.

To slide or not to slide

I bought a few of these as my local bowling supply store didn't stock most of the stuff. There's comfort, but the pads aren't as smooth as we'd like. I'm pretty sure I'll get better at sliding them over time. Super light.

Pros
  • These shoes run true to size and my son says they are really comfortable. Excellent purchase!
Cons
  • Not suitable for wide feet

until now. so good.: my rating

They did what you want in bowling shoes. Put them on and don't even think about them. They are comfortable, non-stick and have a convenient slider. Longevity will be an issue and if they fall apart quickly I will come back and change this review.

Pros
  • Very convenient
Cons
  • little things

Comfort and many options

These shoes worked great after I adjusted to the correct sole and heel that fit me. I didn't even need a break-in period like with other shoes. It sits comfortably and glides just the way I like it. Highly recommended.

Pros
  • A bit sticky the first 2 uses but after that they are perfect!!!
Cons
  • Not as stylish as other bowling shoes on the market.

My verdict is phenomenal

Pros
  • Bought for my husband... wears 2-3 times a week, comfortable, true to size.
Cons
  • May not provide sufficient stability for high RPM bowlers.

Hard and narrow - my new review

Not suitable for wide feet. The material is very hard. Not sure if it settles down after wearing it but even if they fit I don't see that they are comfortable. Felt cheap too

Pros
  • When buying bowling shoes for the first time, they fit well and work perfectly.
Cons
  • Size difference between different models of KR Strikeforce shoes.

Cons
  • Secret

Good Durable Bowling Shoes

Bought these for my son who plays Bowler Jr. I was concerned that their low cost would make for a poor product, but I'm happy to report that I was wrong! They're perfect for his size (unlike the bowling shoes you rent at home) and they slide nice and clean! He's very happy with them and uses them twice a week at a bowling alley in town (and at $3 a shot, they pay for themselves in just over a month!)

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • The list will be long.

Good shoes to start with

I bought these because I was tired of paying rent. These were great entry level shoes and would be recommended if you go bowling once a month. I bought the shoes the same size as my Vans and they fit great.

Pros
  • A dream come true
Cons
  • Some problems
