For some reason I absolutely love the old look of bowling shoes with a 50s look. Anyone else here into bowling shoes/the 50s bowling look? How do you wear it? et.c et.c et.c

Oooh, I LOOOOVE bowling shoes!!! I had some once, I just loved wearing them, But they didn't fit after I had my daughter so I had to give them to goodwill.
So sad. I wore them with jeans and a cute top mostly. I would probably wear them like you wear saddle shoes.

I agree! I have bowling shoes and love wearing them with a pair of jeans. I got mine at Goodwill so maybe I bought yours, Red.
Did you give them away like 10 years ago?.:Miss Melly:.

It's kinda funny, but originally, bowling shoes were rather subtle and classy, but people kept stealing them so bowling alleys decided to change and make them tacky- that's when they started making them red, white, green, purple, etc. Nowadays people like them because of that!

I have a pair of vintage bowling shoes that I aquired for free, they are cream colored. I like to wear them with vintage bowling shirts and rolled up jeans and bobby sox.
