If you have used Tour Ultras before and liked them, why not go with them?  I personally have not used the SST7s but I love my Tour Ultras.

Same boat as WSU.  I have some TUs and they're great.

A lot of people have shied away from the SST 7 because of the rubber edge that is put in front of the slide sole to keep it from rolling under like it potentially could on SST 4's,5's, and 6's.  it could also be Dexters way of making the toe more durable and prevent bowlers from removing soles from the toe first which can lead to velco problems in that area.

Hope I'm not repeating what you've already heard though.

For comfort, it is hard to beat ABS Tour Ultras. They are the most comfortable shoe I have ever had.....However, when it comes to quality, I can't speak so highly about the Tour Ultras as mine are only 9 months old and already, the lining and insole on the inside of the shoes are coming apart. Surprising that a $140 shoe would fall apart so quickly. Due to this poor quality I wouldn't advise you to buy ABS, but that is up to you.

Yeah well someone revived the topic lol, but yeah I got my tour ultras and love them, I like the being able to have the same slide across many different approaches, they are very comfy (more than any tennis shoe i've had) and they are lightweight, great shoe!
