How to Buy Men's Bowling Shoes

When picking out a good pair of mens bowling shoes, there are many things that you need to consider:

First of all, is this your first pair of mens bowling shoes? In the past, have you only donned stinky, rented shoes, straight from the bowling alley? If you are just getting into the sport, it may not be time yet to buy a high-end pair of shoes. Of course, if you do plan on playing a lot, you may want to skip buying one of the entry level pairs and go straight for a mid-grade pair.

How much are you willing to spend on a new pair of shoes? You should consider this from the onset there are some very expensive pairs out there, but they may not be what you need. You can likely buy a pair of ambidextrous mens bowling shoes for relatively cheap.

Are you planning on getting a pair of ambidextrous bowling shoes, or a pair of right handed or left handed bowling shoes? If you plan on playing in a big league and improving your bowling a lot, you should go with a pair of right handed or left handed bowling shoes. Otherwise, if you are bowling solely for fun, and you do not care too much about your improvement, then a pair of ambidextrous shoes will be just fine for you.

How often are you planning on playing? If you plan on playing a lot, then it can be much more worth it to invest in a more expensive pair of shoes.

Are you going to be playing at one particular bowling alley, or multiple? If you are playing at multiple alleys, you may consider buying a pair of mens bowling shoes with interchangeable soles. If you have interchangeable soles, you will be able to make your shoes match your ability and the lane conditions.

There are, indeed, many things to consider when shopping for a pair of bowling shoes. One of the most important things, though, is the comfort and the fit.

Fortunately, there are both wide and extra wide mens bowling shoes available. There are sneaker style and performance style bowling shoes. There are mens bowling shoes that are very well cushioned and others that are not so much.

Overall, it is best if you can try on a pair of mens bowling shoes before buying them. If you are shopping online, it can be good to stick with a manufacturer, like Brunswick, that has fit you in the past. Or, you can try on the shoes of friends, etc.

Good luck on your search for the perfect pair of mens bowling shoes for you!
