A shoe journal bearing having a series of shoes with a leading edge distribution groove, and bleed grooves so as to prevent oil starvation of any area of the shoe, and an oil feed tube connected between the outer end of the oil distribution groove and an oil supply hole in a shoe retaining ring. The oil feed tube is provided with O-ring seals to seal the oil supply system against leakage and directs the oil against the working faces of the shoes where it is needed and prevents the oil from leaking into areas where it is not needed or useful.
