He we have The Strike Bowling shoes by Modshoes
When we very 1st started Modshoes we was asked for “Chisel Toe” bowling shoes, like the one from the 80s, the type Shelleys used to sell. It has taken this long to find a good supplier, and also get as close as possible to the shape. This style of design is only available from Modshoes
Notice that the front is much slimer and less rounded than other bowling shoes on the market. And copied from a pair from the 80s.
Also we wanted to do a good bowling shoe, so the leather upper is super soft, and supple. Literally no wearing in ! The sole has an extra gripe piece added at the front. So if you are wearing these out and about, you arent going to slip over (But if you do, you cant sue Modshoes)!
Sizing
Stick with size, unless you are super wide fitting. The design means they are more suitable to normal width, but a sizer bigger doesnt look big. We have had some back for being too big, please note that the leather is super soft, so if in between sizes, go down, not up. I am wideish 8.5 in my right foot, and an 8 was very good for me.
Upper: Leather
Sole : Man Made
Sizes 40(6) – 46(12)
We also do a ladies version in some colours
Mens Sizing
We use the following size conversions. Please be aware that different designs are designed to be bigger than others. We try our best on the product page to mention sizing.
Men’s Sizes
UK | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 |
Euro | 40 | 41 | 42 | 43 | 44 | 45 | 46 |
US | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 13 |
Please Note that are shoes are made mainly in Spain & Portugal and Euro to UK Conversion means that the shoes normally come up a little big. The reason is that a 43, is more like 9 and 1/4.

I’m loving my new bowlers from mad shoes.uk. Reasonably fast shipping to the US, I usually wear a 7.5US size and was advised to get the size 6UK. Perfect fit. Great customer service and a quality product.

I’ve bought several pairs of bowling shoes over the years and the ones from Mod Shoes are the best. They are a lovely shape, very comfortable but at the same time sturdy and well made. Sadly, we can’t all be members of the Jam but this is the closest we can get. An extremely stylish shoe that really stands out on any occasion. What are you waiting for?

So comfy, I have a problem getting shoes that are comfortable due to a tendon/metatarsal injury, these were perfect from first wear, leather is soft and comfortable, I’ll be back for some more.

Great shoe, and great service. As I find when trying on shoes, sometimes I need a 9 and sometimes a 10, when spoke to the inquiries at Mod Shoes, they suggested I ordered a pair of each and return the unwanted size. the order was with me the following day and when I returned them, carriage free, the refund was in my bank account within a couple of days. thanks Mod Shes, I will defiantly use you again.
