Right Handed High-Performance Bowling Shoes with Interchangeable Slide
About the KR Strikeforce TPC Gladiator
The KR Strikeforce TPC Gladiator is a flagship of The Perfect Collection, KR’s top performance line. TRI-Sole outsole technology pairs an interchangeable slide pad and heel with added durability for bowlers who drag their toe, and the FreeLock dial lacing system locks in a secure, repeatable fit with one turn.
A flexible mesh and microfiber blend upper with a padded Lycra lining and a TPU molded heel stabilizer keeps the foot supported, while the H-Bar heel locking system and an Ortholite High Rebound molded insole keep you locked in and comfortable through long blocks.
How the KR Strikeforce TPC Gladiator Slides
The KR Strikeforce TPC Gladiator is a handed shoe with a true grip-to-glide split: one foot slides, one foot grips, the setup serious bowlers need.
How the Slide System Works
This is a handed performance shoe, set up for a right-handed bowler. Your slide foot is the one opposite your bowling hand, so a right-handed bowler slides on the left foot. Out of the box the left (slide) shoe carries a genuine Clarino #8 white microfiber slide pad and a #5 graduated rubber heel for a long, controlled glide.
The right (push-off) shoe is fixed with a T02C rubber crystal push-off sole and a #2 shark-tooth heel, so it grips the approach for a powerful, stable plant at the line.
Dialing In Your Slide
The slide pad and heel on the slide foot are interchangeable, and the box includes a #10 grey felt slide pad, a #6 perforated white microfiber slide pad, a #7 black leather heel, a TPC Dura-Flex shoe cover, and a TPC valuables pouch, so you can re-sole for different conditions the day you unbox them.
A flexible mesh and microfiber blend upper with a TPU molded heel stabilizer and padded Lycra lining supports the foot, the H-Bar heel locking system keeps your heel planted, and an Ortholite High Rebound molded insole cushions every step.

BowlersMart Tips: Getting the Most From the KR Strikeforce TPC Gladiator
Dialing In Your Slide
Match the slide pad to the floor: a higher-number pad gives more glide on a sticky house pattern, a lower number grips more on a slick tournament shot. Higher number means more slide. Have pad and heel swaps done at your pro shop for an even, consistent finish.
Fit and Sizing
Order your normal size, or go down a half for a snugger, more consistent slide.
Care
Keep the slide pad clean and dry, and store spare pads flat. Use a slide-foot shoe cover when you step off the approach so the pad stays consistent.
