Great value, great scores.
Right out of the box, first league game was 290! 64-year-old bowler using a 6 year- old ball. I shot 699 and 721 first 2 series with the Linds Classic. I'd owned a pair 35 years ago that lasted 15 years. I had tried some Dexter shoes after that and decided to return to Linds. I'll never bowl with another shoe again! Great quality, durable and comfortable. Happy owner!

A consistent fit every time.
I first purchased Linds Shoes 40 years ago. I had a pair that after many years was wearing thin and I ordered a new pair using the same size as my old pair. The new ones fit perfectly and took only a few throws to break in and slide right. They are very comfortable and made with quality leather. Well worth the price!

Sticky ..Sticky
I purchased a pair of Linds 20 years ago. Best shoes ever as I have been bowling since the 1970's in an adult league. I purchased these shoes last year for Reno but left them home as I had not bowled with them before the Open Championship's. Last night Mar. 05, 2024 I decided I would take my new shoes to the lanes and left my old shoes home. I found the shoe heals (both) and the sole on my right shoe to be very tacky with a soft rubber and not hard as my old pair of Linds. My old pair of Linds at a size 9D seemed large but the new pair is not true to size or width. These are not the shoes to buy. If you cannot slide you cannot bowl. I do not recommend this shoe.
By Tom O. from Chicago
Cons:
Too Stiff, Uncomfortable
Best Uses:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Not good
Bought these to replace a pair of Linds I've had for many years. They are not in the same league. Stiff, uncomfortable, sticky on the approach. Really disappointing.
By Topdawg from Chicago Il.
Best Uses:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Like wearing bricks
This is my 3rd pair of Lind's and these are the worst pair I have ever had. Hardly any flexibility I even replaced the insole for a more comfort fit and it didn't help. I am taking a lost with these because I don't think I can get a refund for them. I will be mailing them back. My wife bowls and she is still wearing my 1st pair

Question:
I wear an 8 in women shoes, so what size would I wear in men shoes for this style
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
Generally speaking, you would wear a size to a size and a half smaller in men's shoes. If you wear a size 8 women's shoe then I would try a 7 or 6.5 men's shoe.

If you have any questions or doubts about the size to get, we recommend getting the true fit guarantee option. I could not confirm how this shoe will fit compared to your dress shoe or athletic shoes so you may start with one size and if you needed to change this out after trying them on, the true fit would let you switch to the next size you needed on this model at no extra charge.
