Well I think I am going to get me a new pair of shoes. Thinking about trying out the Etonic stabilite plus black. Decent looking shoe which I dont care about I am more worried about performance. I have not been happy with Dexter or Dynothane. I have seen a couple people with Etonics and apparently you tell them which heel you want and they put it on there correct? How good are there slide soles, I am looking for something with a bunch of brake, I use my heel as break and when I put it down I wanna stop! I bowl on wood approaches mainly so I need to be able to know there soles are not all slippery and need one or two that are very sticky. Thanks, Jordan

IMHO, the best shoes available. I've had a pair Stabilite Pluses since last November. Bought them as a solution to Plantar Fasciitis and they ended up being the most comfortable shoe I've worn in addition to curing my foot. That includes Dexter SST 6 LX and ABS Tour Ultras. I really like the arch support and feel. They are still going strong and haven't shown any signs of wearing out.
I just ordered a backup pair from bowlingball.com for $60.

If you want brake with the heel, you will get it with Etonics. I just got the Stablite Dress and heels really stop you. Maybe a little too much for me. I have to be a little lighter with my footwork. The nice part of the soles is that I used an 8 on Dexters and with Etonics I use a 6. My Etonics came with a 4 and 8 sole. So this give me a chance for more or less slide. The Dexters normally come with a 8 as max slide. A Dexter 10 sole is a separate purchase.
I noticed a lot of pros on TV are using Etonics. Not quite as much as Dexters, but it is closer than I expected.
