I love my Etonics too.. only shoe that I am able to get a consistance slide at every house I bowl in.
Tried dexters and 3gs and could never get a slide that worked..
I have the same shoe you are talking about.. but with a different heel. My heel is more like the one in the other two links, but black.
Take a look at the pics.. Do you have that heel?
The pics in the 1st link have a newer heel.
