Can a Linds owner share their knowledge

Post by Tap »

Hi Everyone

This is my first post. I must confess it is spurred by selfishness and not for everyone’s betterment. Can anyone tell me how the classic linds run? Are they pretty true to size? Also does anyone who owns linds know if they tend to be narrow or wide?

Thanks in advance to anyone whom could enlighten me.

Tap.

My linds classic PS are over 20 years old. They ran pretty close to size at that time.

But Linds has since moved production to Mexico and I can't say about current production.

Linds wear like iron. They are a little heavy compared to Dexter's and have a break in period.

New user here...HI! Not new to bowling though..but did take 11 years off and just got back into it this summer, anyway...

I had black classic linds back when I bowled all the time (about 10 years before the layoff) and I wear size 11..they run very true to size, they fit me well but weren't tight, and I have a widish foot, those were just regular cut too if I recall correctly.

Well the heel finally wore down far enough I had to buy another pair, found a wide (E) pair over at http://www.discountbowler.com/product.p ... t=0&page=1" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; for 87.50 at the time..listing says 92.95 now, but still a great deal! I'm loving my new pair :mrgreen: The fit even better than my old pair did

I have some linds classics that I don't use anymore. For me they ran big.. I wear 13 or 14 in regular shoes and my linds were size 12. They also tend to run narrow for me as well. Very tight and form fitted on the sides.. More like a dress shoe or loafer..
not like an athletic shoe.
Right Handed, 16-17 mph off hand (14 -15 mph on Qubica reading) ,350 rpm,PAP 4 3/4 x 1/4 up, 17 deg axis tilt, varied rotational axis deg.. usually 45+
Book Average 210+
