Heck Yeah! I was quite tempted to order more than one pair, but held back... for now.

Thanks for the guitar links, but no new guitar for me. I already way overspent for my last one. The cost relative to my ability would be comparable to getting the latest SST's and the lastest, greatest, most expensive hook monster ball, then standing at the line swinging my arm and sending the ball straight into the gutter for all ten frames.

I thought of purchasing a 2nd pair but felt 1 pair is enough for me. 1 pair is enough and should last me at least 5 years. My Dexter SST Entry shoes I currently use have lasted me around 5-6 years. They still work fine for me.

I bought a pair of the Brunswick Classic shoes they say are $200 but they on sale for $20. They still have all the different sizes. The SST 1 shoes are the only one's I noticed they have in Size 13. If you are a Size 12 or Lower or a Size 14 or Higher they should have most of the sizes. If I were to purchase another pair I would wait and see what happens. They did give me a 10% discount code for my next purchase though.

LOL that's funny. Last time I checked you needed both hands to play guitar and neither was necessarily less important then the other.

Now why is it that they do not make left handed violins, violas, cellos and basses?

You are correct, both hands are very important, but they are doing two totally different jobs. You would have to be at least a bit ambidextrous to use the guitar that way.

BTW.....They DO make lefty violins, violas, cellos and upright basses. They are the same except the order of the strings is reversed making it left handed. wink I have 2 right handed guitars that I have "flipped" to be a lefty guitar. They do also make left handed bowling balls. They are exactly the same, but drilled for a lefty. wink wink

Kind of wish I was left handed just for the sake of the shoe sale. Nice sale. All the right handed shoes were normal pricing.

Can someone tell me a little about the sizing of the SST 5 shoes? I currently wear SST 7SE's in size 9M. Would I wear the same size in the SST 5's?

Thanks,

David

Is it possible to buy left-handed shoes, then buy right-handed replacement soles and convert the shoes to right-handed? Based on the prices I've seen, even if two soles needed to be purchased, it would only cost $26 for the soles and $20 for the shoes. Then the left-handed soles could be sold or given to someone else.

(If that idea will work, please wait for me to place an order first!)
