Dexter "The Nine" Shoes

Looks like they wasted no time taking advantage of Etonic leaving the shoe industry with the three section sole style like the Tour Masters were.

Shoes do look good though, if my Tanks weren't so new and holding up so well i'd probably consider a pair.

Used only dexter for years sst3,4,6, then the pair made for brunswick a few years ago.  All were about the same.  Then got the new Brunswick tpux shoes and have loved them more then any so far.  When paying $120+ for shoes its amazing how little comfort was includded.  Mine have held up like new since August.

Thank you A,

PS for the less exalted ones on this site, have any seen the SST6s on a website besides Dexters for sale in a  left handed wide?

luckylefty - good luck on the LH shoes in wide
all i have found is the sst8's which i am really hard on and these are on season 2 of
3 nights/week + plenty of practice and tournaments
they have held up well
only thing i ever had that was equal or better was the OG dynaroos

Dave81,

Thanks for reviewing my question.  I just am not as excited about the interchangeable push off foot as I am about the Power Pivot and Duratip of the Old SST 5s and 6s.

I like the thinner very flexible TPU shoes from Brunswick also.  As to the push off foot, not being as satisfactory to me as the SST5s and SST6s I am working on a fix suggested by a helpful member out here also.

You know there are a lot of good and helpful guys out here.

Regards,

Luckylefty

They don't sell the TPU-X in my size. Boo hiss.

I have a brand new pair of 6LZs that replaced my 6LXs and they're not the same. Breaking them in just wearing them around the house sucks. My delicate feets need good shoes!

Dexter posted this today. As somebody who will destroy a toe in no time I am excited about these. I will be getting a pair before the season starts next year.

does anybody know a release date?

Thank you for the video link!  A toe draggers dream come true, maybe. Very nice!

I have a pair of the Brunswick TPUX and that shoe is the most comfortable I have ever had.  I have had all the Dexters from sst5 to the sst8, etonic and a pair of the storm high performance shoes.  None match the comfort of the Brunswick shoe.

Has anyone who has actually worn both compared TPU-X to the 900 Global 900 Tour Ultras? I need a new pair, but can't imagine anything as comfortable as them. If they sold LH Silver, I wouldn't even be asking, but since they don't......

I guess actually I should post that question in Brunswick or accessories....

If 3g sold the white and silver in black I would have a pair already.


I wish dexter would release the White and grey tanks in lh.

I have no idea what I was typing. If they sold the white and silver tour ultras in lh I would buy them.
