New mizuno badminton shoes... cheaper than Wave Fang RX http://products.mizuno.jp/c/category/badminton/shoes/shoes
I'll take this colourway . New midsole tech 'POWNCE' ... 10% lighter, same cushioning ... Less ventilation compared to RX though.
Wave Fang SS cheaper price tag compared to Wave Fang RX due to no rhino-skin which protects the stress points around the upper front of the badminton shoe. Rhino-Skin is an abrasion and tear resistant synthetic material that is ultra tough for increased durability. Personally, I prefer a badminton shoes with rhino-skin, good cushioning and support.

Size wise comparing mizuno to victor shoes? I'm wearing victor sh8500 on size 27.5cm, applying to mizuno will it be the same? Regard this yellow pairs, wide will suit what kind of foot? Any specific measurement of feet should go to wide? New in mizuno, please advised.
Noticed the same thing, no pre-order mentioned ... But catalogue release date is for September right? I don't think the rubber part is necessarily the Rhyno-skin, Asics also use Rhyno-skin but it looks nothing like a web. edit: I guess it is not called Rhyno-skin by Mizuno so must be Asics tech; description: "Rhyno Skin - Abrasion and tear resistant synthetic leather for increased upper durability." You probably meant Rhyno-skin like right? But actually the patch at the front looks more like Rhyno-skin than the rubber web ...
Hmm, manage to get a look on Fang SS, the sole seems pretty hard on the heels, not sure it will provide good cushion?
wow, looks like it has better cushion around the ankle area than previous fangs!!! they look great!!!
Tried and agree with dollargood that the heel cushioning is quite stiff , which is contrary to what we see.
