Subject: Where to buy bowling shoes?
Hi guys, I'm from Italy. I need a new pair of bowling shoes.

Would you suggest some e-shop that ships products (bowling shoes in my
case) in Italy and not only inside United States?

TIA,
Paolo.

They ship internationally. I've bought from them before. Good items, good
prices, *quick* shipping. Highly recommended.

Lived 3 years at Motta Santa Anastasia in Sicily.

Bowled in Italian leagues but I do not buy on the net. I mean I buy nothing I
can not go to a store and feel.

I bought a pair of Dexter SSTs from mgbowling.com. That site has the
same look and feel as bowling.com, so maybe they are the same place.

This is the first pair of shoes I ever bought online. I would have
liked to have bought the shoes from a local shop, but they don't keep
a large selection of sizes. My feet are wide and I need a wide shoe.
If a local shop says "I don't have it, but I can get it for you," I
figure they are just going online and ordering it. I can do that
myself.

End of story is that maybe I got lucky, but the shoes fit perfectly.

I admit I have bought a bowling ball on-line and a few other items I gave to
fundraising events but since my shoes are my most important piece of equipment
I will never buy shoes online even to give to charity fundraisers.

Shoes are the underware of bowling. No one watching on TV ever sees them unless
its a commercial.

I am partial to Lind's shoes because I never buy them before I try them on.

I do own some Dexters and use them fairly often but only because I don't have
Lind's that fit that condition.
