I'm looking to buy a new pair of badminton shoes soon
As my feet are wide, flat and I'm located in the US, shoe selection is pretty poor.
I've been hearing some conflicting stuff about the widths of the 99, 100, and 101
I've heard that 99 is wide, 100 is wider and 101 is normal?
Also wondering how they compare to the 200s
I'm normally size 9.5 4E for New Balance shoes

just give you some informations, hope can help you to choose shoes
the Yonex 100Ltd and 101 Ltd is the normal one, even narrow for somebody like you with wide foot, so if you want to choose the best shoes in Yonex, you can try for Yonex 200. Its function is better than Yonex 99.

and do you know there is a chinese brand "Li-Ning" also produces professional badminton shoes, if you can buy it in USA, i suggest you buy AYAD005, i think is the most suitable for you.

whatever, hope you can get the perfect shoes.:):)

This is from narrowest to widest: 100,101,99,200. 100,101 and 99 are 3E and 200 is 4E.

It's best if you tried the shoes first.

Yeah, I know about Li Ning, but I don't think they would fit me length wise, I've heard they're even shorter than Yonex shoes for the same size. I'm a 44 or 44 2/3 for Yonex (depending on the specific shoe) and the AYAD005 only go up to 45

haha, It looks you really need a wide shoes for badminton, i promise you that if you are 44 or 44 2/3 in Yonex, the Li-ning 44.5 is suit for you, and i can give you another choice, have you heard the Victor? the Victor 8000 also has wide edition. you can think about it.

and the most important thing is to try the sheos yourself, only this way ,you can get the best shoe.

Yeah I know about Victor
I can't seem to find specs for any non Yonex shoes
problem is I live the the US, right between California and all the badminton shops there, and Richmond/Vancouver, where general sports equipment stores have badminton stuff

Why is it on the Chinese website there are a completely different set of shoes and clothing from the english website for Li Ning?
