Storm's new shoe: SP2 900's
« on: May 28, 2012, 10:12:48 PM »
Does anyone have any idea or news on when these shoes will be out in June? I'm thinking about getting some (even though their not the prettiest shoes... :-\) for my first trip ever to Nationals this year! Whohoo!!!! ;D Not 100% set on these shoes, but hearing good things since they are being made by Dexter. Thanks.

They ship from China the first week of July, so you can expect them about a week after...it takes that long from them to get funneled from the port to distributors.

However the new Dexter SST8's are expected to be in at the end of June.

Crap!!!! Oh well, I'll guess I'll be getting my Tour Ultra's or some Dexter SST 8's. Thanks for the quick reply.

Did you honestly think they would be made in this country ?

I'm sure some people would. Most high quality products of many kinds are made overseas or else where. Made in America means so little to me when the quality isn't there. Anymore it is likely assembled in America. Still many harp on this when referring to a bowling ball company and the fact it is made in another country and they would never buy it again. I guess everyone has to make a stand somewhere, no matter how small of a stand it is.

Not to get into politics, but it just too expensive to make things here anymore.

Too expensive for the quality of labor you get in most places here I would agree. Plus our consumers want the product at the cheapest prices possible.

"I want the highest quality product at 5% above cost" lol
