    Hi

    Im considering buying a pair of SHB98MX´s, but I dont know if my foot is too wide? So to you out there, who owns the SHB98MX´s, could you tell me how "fat" it is?

    isn't the width is made corresponding to the length?
    So, the larger size in length; the larger width.

    the 98 MX is more of a narrow fit, while the 89 is a wider fit...I would suggest you try it out... also the 98MX has less ankle support, even though I am using them...

    i find the shb98 too narrow for my wide feet. my old yonex shb95 is a size 11US. the fit is just right so i ordered a 11.5US shb98. the shoe is too tight even if i use thin socks. so i decided not to use them anymore.

    Yeah, I just tried the 98 last week in Taiwan, and they felt tighter than 89 (both in 27.5cm size), and that's why I just bought another pair of 89. 98 is not for me.

    I also tried one in Taiwan, it's really tight, I used to wear Shb-95 in 26cm size(U.S 8.5), but this one I need to wear 27.5cm(U.S 9.5), 1.5cm larger! :eek:
    So I suggest anyone who want to buy Shb-98 try before you buy it, or order at least 1 size larger than your usual size.
