FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for all types of lawn bowling surfaces?
Yes, the Dek Jack shoes are designed for optimal performance on both grass and artificial lawn bowls greens.
How do I determine the correct UK size?
Refer to the product sizing chart provided by the retailer. It's recommended to measure your foot length and compare it with the chart for the most accurate fit.
Can I wash these shoes in a washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended. It can damage the materials and construction. Clean them by wiping with a damp cloth.
What is the primary advantage of the EVA sole?
The EVA sole provides lightweight cushioning and shock absorption, which helps to reduce foot fatigue during long periods of play.
Is the PU/Textile upper waterproof?
The materials offer some resistance to light moisture but are not fully waterproof. They are designed for dry to moderately damp conditions typically found on bowling greens.
Can these shoes be used for other sports?
While they offer good grip and comfort, they are specifically designed for the movements and requirements of lawn bowls. For other sports, dedicated footwear is recommended.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight during initial wear
Lace the shoes looser initially and wear them for short periods. The materials are designed to adapt to your foot shape over time.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces
Ensure the soles are clean and free from excessive dirt or debris. The EVA sole provides grip, but contamination can affect traction.
Discoloration of the upper material
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can cause fading. Clean with a damp cloth as recommended.
