Has anyone gotten good deals on bowling shoes?

[MnMomtoboys]

Our boys love to bowl and with the deals at the bowling lanes lately we thought they would love their own shoes(and save us money of course)

We just haven't found any good deals and I keep forgetting if Target and Walmart carry them.

Does anyone know of and good deals?

It has been about 10 years, but we got ours cheap @ Kmart!

I don't know what size your boys wear, but the pro shop at our bowling alley has very reasonable prices on shoes. My son wears adult sizes and the ones he wants are $39. It doesn't take very many rentals to make up that much money.

I buy all of my equipment at www.bowlingball.com.
They have all the major brands: Brunswick, Circle, Ebonite, Dexter.....Plus free shipping. Anything you get at Kmart is going to be "cheap".

I personally use Brunswick, but have also used Cirlce....I was not very happy with the quality of Circle.

Dexter carries a few different styles of youth shoes.


Hope this helps.....

My husband goes bowling once a year for a work event. My husband refuses to wear public shoes. I bought a cheap pair at MC Sports for about $25, they are very well made. I looked other places too, I could not find any at Kmart or Walmart.

I got ours from Ebay. Brand new and great prices.

My kids bowl in leagues and when I was looking for shoes for them I had a really hard time finding reasonably priced children's shoes. Our pro shop didn't carry any and the man working there said he wouldn't even buy his own child them because they're so expensive and children grow so fast that you don't get your money's worth from them.

I ended up getting DS's from ebay and DD got hers as hand-me-downs from her coach's daughter.

A little OT, but if you're children enjoy bowling you should consider a league. My two oldest have been doing it for about 5 years now and they also choose to bowl in tournaments (you don't have to in order to be in the league) and have a little bit of scholarship money put away from their winnings. They have a blast, it's good exercise and fairly inexpensive compared to other sports, we pay $32 a month at our bowling alley. Skill level also isn't an issue, they have coaches and "handicap" scores.

We talked about a league but right now the boys just want to do it for fun. Since bowling right now is 99 cents a game families are meeting there for get togethers on the weekends.

Thanks for the suggestions everyone.
