toe guard for toe draggers??
« on: June 30, 2016, 08:37:29 PM »
I just happened to notice this on a shoe in a Korean bowling video.

I can't tell if it's a accessory or  made on the shoe itself, looks like it could help.

Yeah that's the dexter powerstep most think it's okay, but it's bulky and heavy on the foot.

The thing on the korean shoe is just on the tip though it's just made on that shoe though.

As they say "rubber toe cup allows a complete kick-step capability."


The Korean shoes looked pretty similar to the Dexter Exxtra's.

They had changeable soles with the little round changeable disks to fine tune the slide and changeable heels.

Lind's made the Exxxtras with the interchangeable disc system (VHS), I believe.

Yep your right it was Linds.

Linds was behind in the interchangeable shoes race. They tried to catch up with the shoe with the interchangeable strip sole first, which didn't go anywhere then that disk system.
