Dexter SSTX Tron BOA Black

The SST X Tron is the next-generation evolution of Dexter’s iconic SST 8, and it is a serious piece of equipment. Interchangeable sole and heel system, convertible for right or left handed bowlers, and a BOA Fit System dial in place of laces.

Two things set this tier apart. First, the interchangeable soles and heels let you tune slide and braking to the approach in front of you rather than adapting your footwork to it, which is the difference between a good night and a frustrating one when you travel. Second, the BOA dial gives you micro-adjustable tension you can tighten or release mid-set with one hand, and it holds that setting far better than laces do. If you bowl tournaments or multiple leagues a week, this is the level worth owning.
