Kids Bowling Shoes Buying Guide
Has your kid taken bowling more seriously than you thought? Perhaps it is time to buy him a pair of
bowling shoes so that he could step up to the occasion. In the case of bowling shoes, one shoe of the pair slides for a better release while the other brakes to provide control. You can rent these shoes if your kid is not a frequent bowler, but if he is, these shoes may be a good investment.
Types of Bowling Shoes
There are two main types of bowling shoes.
*
Athletic Bowling Shoes: These may look like mere athletic shoes, but they are definitely meant for bowling. They have the sliding soles that make bowling shoes special, and they are inexpensive too! These types are perfect for beginners.
*
Performance Bowling Shoes: Of this pair, one shoe slides while the other brakes. The rubber components in these shoes are considerable!
Quick Picks
Purchase Tips
* Determine if your kid is a recreational bowler or aspiring to be a professional. If recreational, then it would be wise not to shell out too much (kid’s shoe sizes change very rapidly).
* Available in a range of colors and designs, the two most popular are Dexter Jr. and Etonics. For the younger ones, consider buying
velcro strap bowling shoes.
* Give priority to comfort over looks.
