Product Description
Get the comfort and easy on-off convenience of the Pilot, now built with extra room through the forefoot. This Wide width version of the KR Strikeforce Pilot is designed for bowlers who need a roomier fit without giving up the shoe's slip-on simplicity or performance features — ideal for league night, open play, or anyone who's found standard-width bowling shoes too snug.
The breathable woven mesh upper keeps feet cool through long sessions, while the hands-free heel system and Komfort-Fit construction let you step in and go — zero-tie elastic laces lock in a secure fit with no laces to tie. A CMEVA outsole with a co-molded rubber heel adds durability and shock absorption, and a higher stack height paired with more heel drop improves weight transfer for better contact with the forefoot through your approach.
The Pilot features a #8 white microfiber slide pad with FlexSlide Technology on both shoes, making it a true universal fit for right- and left-handed bowlers alike. Inside, an open cell foam footbed and silky smooth sockliner add cushioning, and the shoe carries a 2-year warranty for lasting confidence on the lanes.

KR Strikeforce Men's Pilot Black Wide Width FAQ
Q: How does the Wide width differ from the standard Medium version?
A: Both share the same construction, materials, and performance features — the Wide width simply offers more room through the forefoot for a roomier, more comfortable fit for wider feet.
Q: Is this shoe right-handed, left-handed, or universal?
A: The Pilot has a slide sole on both shoes, so it works for right- and left-handed bowlers without needing a handedness-specific version.
Q: Does the Pilot Wide have laces I need to tie?
A: No — it uses a slip-on design with zero-tie elastic laces and a hands-free heel system, so you can step in and go.
Q: How do I know if I need the Wide width instead of Medium?
A: If your foot feels tight or your toes feel cramped in standard-width athletic shoes, the Wide version gives extra room across the forefoot for a more comfortable fit during long sessions.
Q: Can I adjust the slide on this shoe?
A: The Pilot uses a fixed #8 microfiber slide pad rather than interchangeable soles, giving you a consistent, reliable slide right out of the box.
Q: What sizes are available in Wide?
A: The Pilot Wide is available across the same men's size range as the standard version size 7 through 15.
Q: What's the warranty on this shoe?
A: The Pilot comes with a 2-year manufacturer's warranty, the same as the standard-width version.
