Thanks ZhiWeiz. It's a Yonex back pack style and it's convertible to shoulder bag style. Sorry I forgot the model name of this bag.

those are basketball shoes

not recommended because the sole is to thick and your not low to the ground and their very high cut so it restricts ankle articulation. Also they don't grip the floor as good as a rubber sole badminton shoe.

**Bad Victor** · 09-24-2007, 12:40 AM

Wore Asics before because they were wider than the Yonex. The sole of the Asics is thicker which made it easier to roll the ankle. Also, found the traction of the Asics very poor on hardwood gym floor. My Asics only lasted one year before the inside of one shoe wore out. Found the Yonex SHB90MX wider and less restrictive than previous Yonex shoes tried. The traction of the SHB90MX is very good on hardwood gym floor. With the lower profile, the tendency to roll the ankle is lower. After one year, my SHB90MX is still going strong.

have been wearing my yonex SHB 100's the regular ones for about 2 months now with super orange feet insoles in them and there amazing though still.

For Bad Victor yeah i have had asiscs shoes as well and i found that the rubber sole ore out way to fast so i didnt have any grip on it at all after about 2 months or less. Other than that they were really good shoes though and i liked asics except for the reason of the gum rubber sole.
