Acquired a pair of Apacs Shoes, still to test, but expectations aren't sky high...

Any idea or estimate on the pricing for the Tantrum 500? When will it be officially released in Malaysia?

So it turns out, that Apacs shoes are so good, that I am placing my order for a pair of Victor Sh8500D tomorrow.

You probably should keep trying them out. It took me about 4 weeks to "break into" my Yonex SHB-92MX. I don't know much about shoes, but I was warned that the SHB-92MX would be tough to wear initially (by a top player in my country), and I found this to be very true - I found the intrinsic muscles of my feet got a real working out and felt quite sore during gameplay. I presume now that those muscles are stronger, I am finding the shoes rather excellent - they now feel very comfortable and I feel light and fast on my feet during gameplay.

Anyway, I'll make a prediction that you'll find the Victor shoes genuinely amazing. Why? Well, simply because I've never read a bad review of anything Victor on these forums hehe. Not sure why you didn't go straight for those Victor shoes from the start?

Just ordered EdgeSaber Z Slayer and Finapi 88 from BadmintonBay. Hope all goes well.

Honestly I think that in a months time, these shoes will be finished, already after one session, they ate showing about the same wear as a pair of YY's do in 2 months!

I didn't go for the Victot shoes from the start, as when I went to buy them, there was none in my size, and as my other shoes were done, I had to get something.

Currently switched to a pair of brand new 91MX in the meantime...

Does Apacs clone rackets come close to the feel of the rackets they're cloning?

Generally not, but some say they are better hehe.

100% not. Better or not is subjective. But they are great value. But then again a Yonex is not that expensive anyway. Its not as if they need to be replaced every month. Some player bought their expensive at900p in those days but have used them for many years. Eveen selling their bashed up at900p still can command pretty high resale value.

I have a question. I am currently using an yonex armortec 600 for smashing in singles. I want to buy a new apacs racket that plays well in doubles as my university plays doubles most of the time? Anyone got any recommendations? I am a intermediate level power player. Thank you...

tantrum 200/300, slayer88/99 are highly recommended by antony who had done a lot of review for apacs's rackets.

His favourite apacs racket is the Lethal 70. Same for me too.
