I can't comment on if they are going to produce more BUT the TPUX shoes are the most comfortable shoes I've ever had.  For that price I'd definitely give them a try.

I second that,I have used dexter,which for me the slide starts coming apart from dragging after few months,etonic just not comfortable, the tpu are the most comfortable  and durable in my opinion  and 109 is not a bad deal

The TPU-X shoes came from KR, Brunswick just licensed them from them. Big B didn't renew their licensing agreement with them. So their selling them off now.

(rebranded TPU's can be found under the Hammer and Pyramid name now)

$109 pretty good price

Great price!  As far as comfort, can't be beat.  Quality is awesome, no stitching or anything coming off, and I had the shoes since they first came out.  The only thing for me, because I am a toe-dragger, the front of my shoe is destroyed.  Well, not so bad that I can't still use them, but I have a bunch of tape on the toe to try and keep what rubber I have.  At $109, might have to get another pair.  The white one looks nice!

No more of the TPUX from Brunswick. Didn't re-up their deal with KR.  Brunswick will not have any upper performance shoes in this coming seasons product catalog.

On the TPU-X, both sides have replaceable soles AND heels; juts put the right sole and the right heel on both shoes. For all practical purposes there is no left or right pair; not sure why they're marketed that way. At least on the pair I bought, they can.

Look at this web page on Buddies web site:
http://www.buddiesproshop.com/p-5513-brunswick-tpu-x-bowling-shoes-whiteblack-right-handed.aspx
It says, "Interchangeable slide pads and heels on both shoes "!!!!

Hell's bells: you can even cut Dexter soles to the right shape and use them on either shoe.

Need any more options??

Sure... Free would be nice...   :)

Thanks for pointing out the replaceable everything Jeff. That will help. I'll continue to bitch about it being a right handed world though, but will probably buy a pair without telling anybody...

Steve, sometimes you just gotta take a deep breath, step back, relax and watch the world go by.

The TPU-Xs seems like very good shoes to me.
