Does anyone know of any good badminton shoes that can prevent bunions? Something that is wide at the front. I like the Yonex shoes but it seems those that I know of are quite narrow at the front.

I recently got a pair of Wilson EB9. The cloth-ish side walls feels much better/ more stretchy to my feet compare to Yonex's hard synthetic material. The downside is shoe's bottom is not as soft as Yonex so your landing/lunge feels much harder.

Asics Tiger Gel Domain, as recommended by Sir Dink for the ultimate in cushioning for badminton.

Wow, who dug up this old thread?

OK, I'll play... recommend yonex shb200 for wide feet.

Oops my bad my bad. Though to be honest, I HAVE been looking for a more comfy replacement for my shoes because they're starting to wear through. I have a bad lunge technique in that I drag my left foot when I lunge with my right foot (right handed player) so its actually wearing through where the left shoe makes contact with the ground when I drag it. Just bought a pair of SHB-100s as a replacement, hopefully they're just as comfy.
