    Do you have a prescribed orthotics for your flat feet?

    Badminton shoes will not be correct your flat feet.

    nope i dont have prescribed orthotics...hmm interesting didnt know badminton shoes did that haha...cuz i read somewhere on BC that around 40% of the members here are flat footed...so thats why i asked this question in regards to buying badminton shoes...cuz right now iam only wearing white soled sneakers to play...and in desperate need of badminton shoes haha...ill probably settle for 200's but i wanna see the 101's first (101's not in stock anywhere i know of execpt online)

    Get a pair of orthotics for your flat feet first. Then find a pair of badminton shoes that have enough space for your feet with badminton socks on.
