[starsugar]

Nice...

I wonder who can tell me if gel squad is good for badminton.

[jwsw1990]

Hey guys,

I just bought asics gel squad red and white. Is it a good asics shoes for badminton? My previous shoes where the asics gel white and black.

I heard alot of asics sensei gel, blast, tactic, beyond, rockets, but not about squad. Can someone can make a review about gel squad (so I can still return it back to store if not good)?

Hey Luffy, I have been looking for Asics Gel Blast 3 for months and contacted ASICS Malaysia about it. I play FLOORBALL and not Badminton though but ASICS shoes are good for my sport.

Anyway, according to ASICS Malaysia, ASICS Gel Squad is the JAPANESE GEL range whereas GEL Blast is the US Gel range. So, they are similar. And I've heard good reviews about Gel Blast-3. So, I think GEL Squad should work perfectly on any indoor surface (preferably Taraflex or Parquet surface).

If you using strictly for badminton the new Blade 3 will get you around the court the quickest. Inspires great confidence with
its great grip and profile.

One thing about ASICS is that their shoes are quite narrow so for someone with wide foot (3E) like me, I can't wear them. I have tried the Blade 2 and also the Tactic and they are too narrow for me for my size.

Does anyone know of wide ASICS model? I have yet to try to Sensei 2, Beyond or Blast and intend to do so when I go to Singapore next weekend.

The Asics Gel Blast 3 is definitely a MUCH wider shoe!!

I'm sorry but you are wrong. Asics is the all new brand in badminton this year. The last years asics started making lighter shoes and now almost 50 % of them i play with. And i am using the new asics gel beyond whitch i really can recommend to all badminton players ;-)

Hi Mads, you're referring to what saying its wrong? Just wondering...

And i am using the new asics gel beyond which i really can recommend to all badminton players ;-)

You're using Asics Gel Beyond eh? Will google into it, coz in this thread there are Gel Squad and Blast being mentioned...

Really interested to get a pair of Asics shoes lately...read somewhere in this forum, buying a pair of good shoes are really worth it...especially for those wanting to reduce any unwanted injury risks...

It seems most of the mention Asics are either Blade 3 or Blast 4 (both are in the Gel line)...or to a certain extent Rocket...

[MadsHoelgaard]

I Can highly recommend the asics gel beyond ;-) ( orange one)

So everyone was wrong 3 YEARS ago, because Asics released a new version of a shoe one year ago ? (not even a whole year ago yet)

There already is a thread about Gel Beyond and only this latest version is a lightweight shoe (like you say the orange one but also comes in two more colours). The Yonex F1 is still lighter than this Beyond ...
They are also not new in badminton, the Blade was always listed as their "badminton" shoe in Japan and many players use other models (like Tine B, Joachim Fischer, Line Kjaersfeldt)

I can recommend the Asics Gel Beyond for Badminton aswell, very satisfied with them. Especially the bottom of a shoe (sole?) it is never slippery, maybe they are using an other rubber than Yonex.
