Abstract
A shoe friction control apparatus set that enables a user to specifically individually select a specific slide capability for one or more of their shoes from a plurality of different specific slide capacities. In various embodiments, the present disclosure enables a bowler to make a specific individual selection for the shoe on the bowler's slide foot. In various embodiments, the present disclosure enables a bowler to make this specific individual selection for the shoe on the bowler's other, non-slide, plant or kicker foot.

A shoe friction control apparatus set comprising:
- (a) a first shoe friction control apparatus including a first body having a first top section, a first right side section, a first left side section, a first front section, a first back section, and a first bottom section, the first body configured to fit on a shoe, said first bottom section including a first base and first materials permanently attached to the first base such that the first bottom section is configured to provide a first amount of slide capability, and wherein the first top section is more stretchable than the first base of the first bottom section;
- (b) a second shoe friction control apparatus including a second body having a second top section, a second right side section, a second left side section, a second front section, a second back section, and a second bottom section, the second body configured to fit on a shoe, said second bottom section including a second base and second materials permanently attached to the second base such that the second bottom section is configured to provide a second amount of slide capability, and wherein the second top section is more stretchable than the second base of the second bottom section;
- (c) a third shoe friction control apparatus including a third body having a third top section, a third right side section, a third left side section, a third front section, a third back section, and a third bottom section, the third body configured to fit on a shoe, said third bottom section including a third base and third materials permanently attached to the third base such that the third bottom section is configured to provide a third amount of slide capability, and wherein the third top section is more stretchable than the third base of the third bottom section;
- (d) a fourth shoe friction control apparatus including a fourth body having a fourth top section, a fourth right side section, a fourth left side section, a fourth front section, a fourth back section, and a fourth bottom section, the fourth body configured to fit on a shoe, said fourth bottom section including a fourth base and fourth materials permanently attached to the fourth base such that the fourth bottom section is configured to provide a fourth amount of slide capability, and wherein the fourth top section is more stretchable than the fourth base of the fourth bottom section;
- and
- (e) a fifth shoe friction control apparatus including a fifth body having a fifth top section, a fifth right side section, a fifth left side section, a fifth front section, a fifth back section, and a fifth bottom section, the fifth body configured to fit on a shoe, said fifth bottom section including a fifth base and fifth materials permanently attached to the fifth base such that the fifth bottom section is configured to provide a fifth amount of slide capability, and wherein the fifth top section is more stretchable than the fifth base of the fifth bottom section,
- wherein:
- (i) the first amount of slide capability is greater than the second amount of slide capability,
