Just gets better and better. Great review, good use of b-roll. Good stuff man.
Travis Cosentino Thank you so much Travis! I always value your feedback. Thanks for the support!
I love videos were people aren’t reading a script keep up the good work
Reese Agu Thank you Reese! I always want to provide original content and my actual reactions. Thanks so much for the feedback!
I just finally got the SST6 BOA but decided to go with the white ones with the blue trim.
Does the Dexter SST 6 Boa come in a wide shoe option?
5:42 I've been bowling for more than 30 years and never in my life have I heard another bowl say they prefer to stick at the end of their slide. 😆
Def. have to pick the SST6 BOA also. Weird coloring but Dexter looks like they still deliver comfort and performance
Yea and that Boa system is such a cool addition to the shoe as well
I have 2 pairs of Bosses... the black pair and the white/navy pair. By far the most comfortable bowling shoe I've ever had. I also like that they give you more soles in the box. my biggest gripe... not enough choices on heels... you either have the slidey felt or the stop-on-a-dime rubber... nothing in between. Comparing them to the Dexter heels, its like have an 10 and a 2 and you want a 6. I am also a HUGE toe dragger and I bought the Hammer Force when they came out and they only lasted 6 months before the replaceable sole on the right shoe started flapping up. KR (the makers) was very understanding and sent me the black Boss for only shipping. I will say it holds up better... it's not the rubber but the replaceable sole that causes the problem. Now... I have replaced that sole with a Dexter power-step. Now while it looks a bit goofy, it solves my problem 100%. That being said... the Boss is a good shoe... comfy as hell and more durable... just would like another heel option. I also wear a wide shoe and these are plenty wide... almost too wide. My nephew has that SST6 BOA and they work great for him but the sliver fabric is peeling and cracking for him. interesting.
Good review. Going to order a pair to replace my 6 yr old SSt 8s. 2.5 leagues a week so they've had a lot of use.
That’s a great success story! It sounds like you really got your money out of them.
what!? I am on my third pair, your soles don't fall off?
Considering getting a pair of Dexter SST 6's. How's the fit? Do they run true to size? I'm normally an 8.5 but i keep hearing they run a little big. is that true?
Hey Joe! That is a great choice! I found that they are true to size but the toe box is wide. If you have narrow feet you may consider a half size smaller. Hope that helps! Make sure to subscribe and hit That notification bell!
Good to know. Thank you! I’m actually a wide foot guy so this will be perfect
Did you change the soles while you were testing out the shoes?
Tyler Armour That is a great question! no, I didn’t change them. Simply because I am used to bowling with the number 7 slide sole that was already on the shoe. If I did change them, I would have had inaccurate results due to me not being used to more or less slide. Thanks for watching!
Dude the green and yellow 9's are sweet
Chip White Yes! Those are a customer 1 of 1 pair sent directly from Dexter.
Still using a pair of original ABS Roos from 30 years ago. I kinda like the SST6
Thank you for this video. BTW great review! I do have a question though, did you order these in the same size and your normal sneakers or did you have to go a size up or down?
I am interested in both but I am not sure if they run true to size.
Jorge Omar Gonzalez excellent question, both pairs run true to size. You can’t go wrong either way! Thanks for watching the channel! Make sure to subscribe!
@@boxiii Thank you very much
Your subs should not be so less
Your video quality is good
Thank you for saying that! I really appreciate the feedback.
Still using my old Dexter SST4 that I got 18 years ago.
That is a great success story! I have bowled 3-4 nights a week for the past 3 years with my 9's and they still look brand new! Thanks for watching!
NP. I subbed also :) Looking forward to seeing your channel grow.
You are awesome, Thank you so much!
How do the hammer boss fit?? Narrow?? True to size? I have a 13 with dexters but they’re a lil snug
I’m flat footed and have wide feet also
I wear a 12 wide... I am finding the 12 Wide Boss plenty wide enough... almost a little too wide but plenty of space.
Is the SST 8 Pro basically an upgrade of these Dexters?
That’s a great question! In my experience, I find that the term “pro” is thrown around frequently. That being said they are both “Pro” quality shoes. They will have similar performance specs and similar prices. It all boils down to personal preference in lacing styles and fit. I recommend going to your local pro shop and trying both pairs on before making your final decision.
@@boxiii thanks!
I am in doubt between this dexter sst6 and an ultra 3G, I would like your opinion, what would be the best cost benefit
That is a great question! I have personally bowled with both of those shoes. I have found that when it comes to bowling shoes it is mainly about a players “feel”. I always recommend you go to your local pro shop and try on both pairs. Personally, I prefer the SST6 shoes, but as I said that is just a personal preference. As far as the cost is concerned, I wouldn’t worry about spending a few extra bucks. Keep in mind both of these shoes are high performance and will last you a really long time. I hope this helps!
Do a mystery box from eBay
I am planning on it! I have a big Supreme unboxing and Giveaway coming at the end of next week as well! Thanks for the idea!
Didn’t even mention the boa system until the end or that the shoe comes in black🤷🏻♂️ aaaaand you gave more points to hammer but chose the dexters. What ?
SST6 Boa or The 9 BOA?
Do you have wide feet? If you have a wide foot, the sst6 would probably be more comfortable since it has a wide toe box. If not I would go with the 9 all day. (I currently use the 9)
@@boxiii will go w the 6s then. Thanks
IMHO, the dexter looks much more stylish than the hammer... the hammer looks like a cheap dress shoes from Walmart... my two cents
No they don't
Coooooooooooollll
BD Videos thank you!
The Dexter SST 6 is the best bowling shoe ever made. But I find it hard to believe that Hammer is capable of making performance bowling shoes. I suspect that all non-Dexter performance bowling shoes are really rebranded Dexters sold under names like Hammer and Storm.
Storms are made by Dexter but Hammer was made by KR. They are now out-of-production and you can get Hammers dirt cheap because of the branding issue after the sale to Brunswick. KR is now selling the Bosses under their own brand with a new name... slips my mind at the moment... but much more inexpensive.
@@dannytolentino6435 I got a purple and black 4 ball KR rolling bag around 20 years ago. All the zippers would jam causing frustration and swearing. I couldn't even use the side pockets. Finally bought a 4 ball Storm bag two years ago to replace it. It isn't that heavy duty, so I don't know how long it will last, but all the zippers work with ease so it was worth it.
drwisdom1 I hope this one works out for you. I have a Hammer 4-ball in-line that I use for league and practice. It was made by KR and after 2 seasons, not one problem.
Believe it my friend. I have the SST 6s, 3GS, and Hammers. The Hammer is my go to all day long. Much more comfortable, more stylish IMO, and more bang for you buck in terms of included accessories. While both are great shoes. Don’t sleep on those Hammers.
Are use the slippers to go outside to smoke a cigarette
HAMMER SHOES ARE TOO TIGHT I HAD TO BRING BACK EVERY PAIR THEY WERE WIDE WIDTH ALSO...
Ethel Hyer I have wide flat feet as well so I feel your pain!
F the stupid box!
Dexter only if you rich, since the sole gonna fall off after awhile, im on my 4th pair because they just keep falling apart... cobblers can fix it but it will only stay "fixed" for a very short time until its unrepairable...
Im seriously considering to finally move away from Dexter's money pit.... the build quality is so low its unreal...
I got a pair of Dexter SST 5s in 1998 and they lasted until 2015 when I got a pair of SST 6s. Of course I have to replace the sliding sole, which I do about every two years. I really could have kept using the 5s but the 6s were on sale for $99 with free shipping. After over 4 years of two leagues a week, the 6s are still like new.
