I complain to Lind's all the time about their shoes being made in China.  We sell a fairly large amount of the lower end Linds as well as Etonic and very few Dexters.    The higher end shoes we sell are mostly Etonic and 900 Global.  Linds seems to have not kept up with the higher end bowlers and their needs.  Technology has passed them.  They seem to have gone to the shoe for the more masses which fits the China production.  With the national average for men bowlers somewhere around 180 why concentrate on the very small part of the market.  The other thing would be how much it would cost to pay the PBA to use the shoes on TV.  How many people actually watch the show and notice that Linds shoes are being used.  If there is not a good return for the money then why throw it away.  I know when we were looking at being used on the PBA the cost was out of sight.  You have to sell a great amount of product to recover the cost.
