Dexter SST 8 Shoes
« on: October 29, 2008, 03:14:31 PM »
I've been checking out the SST 8's from Dexter. They look pretty nice, and pretty well built. I've really like my SST 5 LX's, but they are starting to really wear out.

Anyone tried the 8's yet?

I have a pair, it took a bit to get used to a good heel /sole combo.  They are very comfortable like most dexter shoes.  Plain and simple I like them

I really like my 8's, and this is coming from a die hard Tour Ultra person previously. They are very comfy and have a wider platform than the TU's did, and to me they feel great. The soles and heels that come give you good options and i've had no wear issues thus far.

The push off foot also had interchangeable soles too? Am I reading that right about them?

Yes it does, this is due to the fact that the shoes aren't right or left handed, all the soles included work on both the right as well as the left foot.

Awesome shoes. Take a little getting used to, with the new shape/fit, but they are great. The sole combo is pretty good, but the heel isn't quite as much slide as I'd like, but threw my old one on for the night.

They look pretty durable and very well built. Shot 666, on Halloween, with the new shoes................uh oh.................
