Hello,

I am French and I use google for the translation so sorry for the mistakes.

I'm looking for a new pair of shoes, knowing that I'm losing the toes of the shoe that does not slip.
The sole of my current pair takes off ....
I would like a pair that I can keep a long time.
The stores that sell bowling accessories in France are rare and have little choice especially for women.

Thank you for your help ^^

I think my feet are too small to find the match in men (6 1/2 in women).
One pair and you better than another knowing that I slip on the toes?

thanks for the site address, but the shipping costs for me are $ 100 ..

the bowling remains a confidential sport in France, it is not obvious to equip itself.

Hopk, I think something is being lost in the Google translation.  What do you mean by 'slip on the toes'?  I noticed something similar in your original post but thought you meant the shoe was torn when you said 'losing the toes'.

Are you saying that your non-sliding foot sole is the same as your sliding foot sole and is too slippery (not rubber)?  Like rental shoes?

In your original post 'The sole of my current pair takes off ....' I thought first meant interchangeable soles but now suspect you mean that you are losing traction.  If so, you need to get a dedicated pair of RH or LH shoes, not a generic pair that can be used by either RH or LH bowlers.  A dedicated pair will have only one sliding sole/foot and the other will be rubber for traction or gripping the approach.

I have noticed that some of the cheaper bowling shoes will be of the generic variety so you may have to get a good pair of mid-priced shoes or the upper level with interchangeable soles.

If I am mis-understanding your post, just ignore this.  Not sure how it will Google back to you.  : )

There is an online bowling equipment shop in Europe https://www.bowlingshopeurope.eu/en/

They claim to ship to France for 15.99 Euro.  Might be worth looking in to as they list all of the popular women's bowling shoes on their site.

Oh yes, the separating toe problem.  This is common with bowling shoes.  Dexter makes a shoe called The 9 that helps to prevent this issue by incorporating the toe cap as part of the interchangeable slide sole on the slide foot.  When you replace/change the sole, a toe cap is incorporated into the sole.  Might be something to consider.  The shoes, however, are expensive and depending how frequently you bowl may not last more than a couple of years.
