I have spent a lot of time online recently trying to find a decent pair of women's  wide width bowling shoes.  According to many reviews on various sites, Dexter's black & white ones seemed to be the best choice, so I ordered a pair of D width ones.  When I got them, they hurt like hell, so I sadly sent them back.  There aren't a whole lot of wide styles available, and they were cute, so I was very disappointed.

Then I had a brain fart.... men's shoes always run wider, so why not get those instead?  I really wanted a pair of rental shoes, and these came in a wide width, also small enough to fit me, a men's 6 1/2, which can be hard to find in a men's shoe sometimes.

Hallelujah!!!  I got them pretty quickly, and when I took them out of the box and tried them on, NO PAIN!  Yay!  Went bowling that very night, and no blisters, no need to break them in, nothing.  I did have to put a heel cushion in my right shoe because it was a little big and my heel kept slipping, but no big deal.  And it wasn't the shoes fault, most shoes fit me that way.

I also was a little leery of the soles of the shoes because they weren't anything like my old ones and I was afraid I would maybe stick to the lane and face plant, but they were, and are, fine.  I just love 'em.

I think these are great, reasonably priced, FUN looking bowling shoes, and I would recommend them to anybody needing a comfortable wide width.  I am a league bowler (not a very good one, but I have lots of fun!), so I bowl often, and  it is such a relief to not limp home.  After bowling 10 or 12 lines, which I do frequently by myself, just for fun, I still don't end up limping.  That's made things much more enjoyable.

These night not be fancy enough or high tech enough for a pro, but for the other 99.9% of us, I think they're awesome..
