New Yonex Badminton Shoe

Apr 12th, 2006 by Neo

Our long stopped sports club is back! Since yesterday was a public holiday, we took the opportunity to play some badminton at Michael’s Badminton Academy (MBA), in Bandar Puteri, Puchong. Our game started at 4pm, it was quite hot in the afternoon although the badminton hall is very big.

Half way into our game, I nearly twisted my left foot as my shoe’s outsole rubber teared itself off. Haha, this pair of shoe has served me through many tough badminton games for the past 2 years. Although it looks a bit old, but overall it still serves me very well.

My old Yonex Badminton shoe. A Winning Touch.

Since I still want to continue my game, and out of safety concerns… I went to the small Badminton Store in front of the badminton academy, and shopped for a new pair of badminton shoe. They stocked quite a selection of badminton equipments, including shoes of course.

My new Yonex Badminton shoe. Ergoshape.

Hehe, that’s what I bought. This model is on promotion, usual price is about RM149 per pair, now the promotion slashed the price down to RM109.90. I paid RM110 and still got 10 cents of change back

This badminton shoe has got something called the Anti-Twist System Check out some users’ review on badmintoncentral.com.

Anti-Twist System. How does this system work? How come I can’t really feel any difference…

   maybe the reason you’re not feeling the difference is cos ur playing technique is not quite ‘right’? heeheehehe

   Jerry,
   Yonex badminton shoe at this price is quite OK I guess.

   Now the shoes is shining white
   How about two weeks later on?

   Can wear normal Nike/Reebok/Adidas sports shoes or not when playing badminton?

   Wuching,
   Stay tuned for the socks.

   Chen,
   Two weeks later, it will be shining like the old shoe.

   Titoki,
   Yes you can. But you won’t be able to move on the badminton court so easily/swiftly, and you maybe at risk of hurting your feet too. Because these shoes are not designed for the badminton court surface.

    Che-Cheh,
    Where are you playing? What time roughly?

12. on 13 Apr 2006 at 1:16 pm12Che-Cheh

    At my office’s court. Don’t think you can come in. Sometimes I play in Matsushita, Shah Alam.

    Che-Cheh,
    That sound good, you can have free courts. Places where I play such as the MBA in Puchong, and badminton stadium in Subang charge RM15 – RM20 an hour for the court.

    Yeah free courts BUT it’s open air court.
    Matsu charge RM10 for an hour.

18. on 20 Jul 2007 at 2:32 am18Look at my new Victor badminton shoe - Hot-screensaver

    [...] Yonex is the number one brand trusted by many badminton players and badminton lovers around the world. My badminton racket and shoes are all from Yonex. Perhaps you can still remember I showed you my anti twist Yonex badminton shoe which I bought just over a year ago. The shoe is good and solid overall, but unfortunately the outsole rubber is not. Somehow it started to tear up sometime ago, maybe because of too much abuse when I played badminton. [...]
