    Got these about 7 years ago and being the intermittent player they've survived. I'm becoming regular again, so thought I should get a backup: very hard to come by Yonex shoes in New Zealand so thought simplest solution would be to ask people what exactly this pair is so I can go looking on the net. Thanks!

    even logging into facebook still cannot see the picture, yes would be best if you could upload the picture(s) here.

    Thanks! Daft of me to miss that myself. If anyone can suggest something similar I'd be appreciative. Meanwhile, I'll go see what's on the www.

    Is there any reason you like this model so much? Have you check out the Yonex website to see what new model have to offer? Victor also maks good shoes.

    The trouble with looking at a website of course is that my feet can't feel the shoes. I like these shoes a lot because they've felt great for so many years (as someone has said on a different thread, one hopes that a particular line of shoes in particular doesn't cease production because it can be difficult finding something one likes), and because it's so damn difficult to find badminton shoes in Christchurch, New Zealand. After visiting half a dozen shoe and sport shops, I've decided it'll be easier to just find something similar to this pair on the net and order it in to NZ.

    Thanks everyone for all the input so far.
