Adidas badminton shoes

[Renmazuo27]

clawhammers, what website did you buy your shoes from?

[clawhammers]

Renmazuo,

I purchased from this Link =
ALL badminton products = www.sunfast.jp

Adidas BD Feather product = http://www.sunfast.jp/SHOP/Adi-G51974.html

Their pricing for badminton products are discounted up to 30% (applicable for rackets, shuttles, apparels, footwears, bags, etc)
The discount is available without any requirement of minimum purchase. Therefore, any customer can enjoy the benefit of discounted prices, even if they only buy 1 item.


Considering Sunfast does not provide services to offshore/foreign customers, I appoint japanese middleman/proxy services to buy the product from Sunfast. The middleman/proxy shall also arrange the delivery of the goods to the designated addressee / recipients.

Link for Middleman Services - http://riderproxy.com/

The professional services fees are set at fixed rate of 7% of the product's price.


Last but not least, in order to minimize my personal costs / expenses. I arrange the delivery to the address of my office's colleague in Singapore. The singaporean import duties (applicable to almost all kind of imported goods) are set at 7% flat rate of GST (goods and services tax), and it is calculated against the CIF prices.
This is intended to avoid the applicable import duties / customs and excises in my country, and it is so much cheaper comparing to my country's rates.



Disclaimer = I am merely a customer, and thus shall not be held liable, on whatsoever grounds, for any transactions involving any of the aforementioned websites.

I believe you will only need to pay 7% GST if your goods + CIF cost more than S$400.

i just managed to went to queensway shopping center and was surprised by the range of adidas badminton shoes available there compared to malaysia

but i end of getting a assics fel rocket for 95 SGD

the adidas badminton shoes just don't rly fit well compared to the assics. so the extra 20 SGD was rly worth the money

I wish the blue/green ones were available in the US

[LD rules!]

Petr Koukal (CZE) has a full clothing sponsorship with Adidas and is wearing these shoes (I think)

[demolidor]

Yes he has also changed to these now

About time we'd update our timeline :

2012 Update 1: now re-named to Adidas Feather Elite and Feather Elite W for ladies, updated AdiTuff on the inside:






2012 Update 2: Olympic red colourway as worn by Reiko Shiota and additional colourway (in Japan named BD Falcon):

Also worn by Shintaro Ikeda post-Olympics:

2013 new colourway Feather Elite and Feather Elite W:

2012 release: Adizero Prime (known in Japan as BD Feather 2 as listed on the Adidas Japan website):

I swear there are two versions of these blue/yellow ones (it is actually named lime/blue instead of the yellow/blue as taken from Adidas China):

2013 New Colourway

Recycled BT Feather will (likely) top the badminton line of shoes. The only difference I could possibly imagine is a little bit of weight loss with a new upper ... Looks like a midsole-bottom sole combo of the two above existing models now that I see them all together .
