Li-Ning AYAF003

**willsabeefcake** · 08-30-2011, 04:50 AM

This has already been touched on in the Bag section:

http://www.badmintoncentral.com/foru...C-2011-*/page2

This shoe was seen at the world championships worn by Lin Dan. I have seen the model on some websites in just a white colour with red decoration.

But we also saw Lin Dan wear a yellow pair as well as an all black pair (worn in the final against LCW), they looked a similar design are they the same model (for example AYAF003-1/2/3) or do they have different codes? Has anyone seen the yellow or black shoes on sale anywhere?

Any help would be appreciated!

I think that is Mid Cut AYAF003. Same shoes as I mention above, but different color

So it seems like they not so keen on the "lateral claw" design which Yonex and Victor is commonly using for their high end shoes.....personally i also dun see much usage of the lateral claws and i'm a flat-footer who's balance is supposedly weaker....hehe

Just a quick update for players in Singapore ......

This shoe (low-cut version) is on sale now at 10 & 10 Sports Trading in Bras Basah.

Costs SGD$259.90 before 20% discount ...... works out to be around SGD$207 after less.

Just by the looks and touch-feel, it seems to be a well-made shoe of good quality, construction and looks ......
it's just that it reminds me more of a basketball shoe, rather than a badminton shoe.
