    Sir Dink,

    Once again you have done it. Where do you get all the $ to afford your badminton hobby? I am jealous because I am a poor student.:crying: The LTD version looks longer than the standard version, right?

    No, same length. The LTDs look longer because they are narrower. Go figure.

    As for how I afford badminton, here's my secret:

    If you look closely, the LTD's laces have white dots going through them. Just perfect for a panda!

    I prefer both the LTDs in 100s and 99s, hands down. Both LTDs are more comfortable, better fitting. And in the case of the 100-LTDs, they are a bit lighter than the 100-MX.

    The Side silver strip looks different one bulge out one is deep and even the Logo on the side is differerent.
    The YONEX world at the back looks funny. Is it printed on?

    SHB-99MX and LTD are so different in terms of colorway and material. But I don't see much different between SHB-100MX and LTD. From the pictures, it seems like the material is the same.

    Well, in the U.S. the 100 LTDs are limited. Yonex is basically out-of-stock for the rest of the year.

    Just a few days ago, I tried on the SHB 99LTD and the SHB100MX in my normal size (SHB90M in 8.5UK). The 100LTD's aren't available in the UK yet:crying:, but I am considering getting a pair when it does come out.

    The dilemma is that I found the 99LTD to be too tight for me, while the 100MX was OK. I think it was due to the 99LTD being narrower. I remember Dink saying that the 100LTD's being narrower than the 100MX's, and also Yonex getting their sizes messed up with the 100LTD's, which might make the problem with the 99LTD even more prominent than the 100LTD.

    So, to sum it up, does this mean that the 100LTD's might not be suitable for someone with wide feet (bearing in mind that getting a bigger size might cause excessive feet movement within the shoe)? Advice and opinions appreciated:).
