BSI Boy's Basic #533 Bowling Shoes

These are nice bowling shoes for a child. They seem to be well build and the material appears to be high quality. My 7 year old typically wears a size 2 street shoe, so I bought these also in a size 2. Based on other reviews I expected them to run big, which is what I wanted so he has room to grow. As expected they are approximately 1/2-1 size larger than his regular sneakers. He seems to have no trouble wearing them, no thicker socks needed. He has bowled 1-2 games 5 or 6 times since purchasing them about 2 months ago, and he has never complained that they bother him at all. I like it that they are a neutral color so he can some day pass these down to his younger brother and sister, so hopefully we will get a lot of use of them.Even though they have the felt pad on the bottom (typical of bowling shoes) he traction on them seems to be good as well and they are not too slippery, which is good because the lightest bowling ball our alley has is 6 pounds and he definitely struggles to carry and throw the ball. The laces also stay tied, and don't easily come undone which is also nice so we don't have to constantly re-tie them for him.The price for the shoes through Amazon was just right, and very comparable to youth sized bowling shoes found on other sites. Plus they come with free returns and Prime shipping, so you cant really beat that.

These are good bowling shoes for beginner kids and there best part is you don't have to wear shoes that have been worn by countless people. However, I gave them 4 stars because they run so big and are not true to size. We made them work by having him wear thick socks, but would have been nice have them fit properly and as expected.

I bought 2 pairs of these shoes for my sons, and they are comfortable and exactly how described. My only issue with them are the shoe laces. They are very poor quality and already broken apart. They are barely used to be so ruined. I'll have to buy laces for both pairs now.

I can't stand house rental shoes. Just Gross! So I purchased these bowling shoes hoping they would at least last the summer league. To my surprise, they have lasted quite a bit longer being used at least twice a week. It was much more sanitary and cheaper buying these than paying a shoe rental each week. Good buy for a budget shoe for a youth bowler.

2nd pair I bought for my son. First pair lasted forever, sadly he outgrew them. This pair seems just as nice as the previous pair.

These shoes have been great so far for my son. I definitely wouldn’t hesitate to buy them again

My son's wears size 6 in regular shoes. Based on reviews we sized down and ordered a 5 however, when they came in they were at least a half size BIGGER than his size 6 regular shoes! There is absolutely no way this will work any time soon for him. There isn't any way on Amazon we can exchange them for a different size. Our only option is to return them for a partial refund. Pretty bummed about this purchase. It is very hard to find boys size bowling shoes.

I purchased the shoes for my grandson which he wears three to four times a week for summer bowling. Because they won't get much abuse I'm sure he will outgrow them before he wears them out. The quality is good and the shoes look great. Good value, saves me the $4.00 shoe rental each time we go bowling.

Excellent product for the price. Fit as expected. Took about 6 games before the felt was smooth enough to allow a bit of a slide and not stick during ball release.

Good deal for the price, they do fit big. Tongue does slide down a bit, but still a good shoe.

Nice! It's perfect! Very comfortable, nice looking shoes!

These are great for young kids. Cheap.

The tongue is constantly slipping down and it is quite frustrating.
