    Found these beauts a few days ago - the mystery of Ko's new orange wheels is solved:):

    No Talon-Guard or Trinetic rubber, so they're most likely mid-range.

    Any word on ETA to retailers? Especially Europe - I want the green ones so badly it's starting to hurt...

    nice looking shoes, even better if they didn't paint on the 77 or double arrow or whatever they are suppose to represent.

    So how's this different from 9100 and 820? Has light EVA like 9100, but no LSS.

    Also seems to be in between the two in midsole thickness/cushioning.

    The SH S80 looks in the Forefootarea like a SHB86.

    Not quite as bulky. The S80 are nice and "pointy", I think:).

    Has anyone tried the S80 yet? I noticed on their product page that they took away some technologies compared to my P9100. Hesitant on letting go of my P9100 as maybe the S80 won't support my flat feet as good as my P9100 or even my old 9000.

    Have a look at the specs... it has a V shaped last, vs U shaped last for 9000/9100. So it won't fit wide flat feet as well as the latter.

    Support wise for flat arches, no badminton shoe provides that. For that, you'll need to get something like Spenco Total Support Max insoles.

    Just bought these and tried them on barefoot (gets better feel of it). It's pretty soft on the sides of the shoes, no hard seams and sole cushioning seems good

    Don't worry, take comfort in that us wide feet mutants make great swimmers! lol Even if we can't find shoes to fit us on land.

    They were on display in the Victor apartment. Only one of each, though, so they couldn't be tried on - well played, Victor:p.

    They are incredibly light, and have very supple leather.

    Ordered mine - had to settle for the white; the yellow and orange are limited editions, and we won't see them over here for a while.

    Well, more of a pre-order from UK - they aren't even in Germany yet.

    The new Victor stuff should arrive beginning of April in Germany.

    This shows again how bad Victor Germany is.

    Rackets are there already; I think it's the kit, shoes and bags that are behind. Having ordered a bag as well, it's a bit annoying, since the rackets got to me this morning!

    Well, I didn't see any new Victor stuff at various online shops in Germany. That's weird. My birthday is not far away and I wish a JS10. Maybe for my next birthday...oh wait...Victor Germany will discontinue it for next year.:p
