    Just ordered my Victor SH9000ACE-E from Eric and will probably arrive early next week. I also own a Victor SH8600, Yonex shb 101ltd, 102ltd and 65ft and an Asics Gel Blast 3. Would try to make a comprehensive comparison with each shoe. Just give me enough time as in only bring one pair per playtime... :):)

    WOW... what a good news..
    You are a lucky guy able to have those so called high end shoes these days.
    Is your YY SHB 102LTD JP coded?

    I think the Victor is much nicer than the Yonex 102ltd. 102ltd is the shoe I had before moving over to the SH9000ACE

    Do you mean based on the looks or performance?

    I used to have the Yonex 101 which I ruin after machine washing and drying. I bought the Victor 8600ace-F and the 9000ace-E size US11 from Eric. Best prices!

    The victor is definitely better.

    Both the Yonex 101 and 8600ace were good but they were just another pair of shoes. However, shocking to me, the 9000ace was all together so much more special! It fits perfectly and just felt right. Further it feels completely different like its a new design. It's much lighter and hold your feet snugly. Also you feel planted to the floor as it's lower in profile but has good cushioning.

    Best shoes I have and feel it's like a new technology which is odd for me to say.

    cheers
    Hugh

    Hi,

    Normally challenge courts during nights Tuesday and Friday at Bingtang SSF and nights Monday and Wednesday at UBC Fremont. I also do Saturday morning at UBC.

    For the last month, I had to miss out from Bingtang, but my friends are there.

    Cheers
    Hugh

    With my Yonex SHB-200's starting to look like they've been through a war, I've started to look for new shoes and these Victor's look excellent. They're exactly what I've been looking for; low to the ground, light and fierce looking.

    My main question is, where can I get them? I'm going to be visiting Beijing this summer so does anyone know any reputable shops that sell these Victor shoes (non-fake please) in Beijing?

    Eric at rkeptrading@gmail.com can make it happen, since I already got mine :)Fast shipping and best price (even with shipping cost) with the size and colors I needed. Actually most places couldn't get it previously either. His does not come with the Olympic 2012 bags though. CheersHugh

    CanadianBadmint, I ordered a pair from Eric at Squash Eric on the Badminton Central forums or his email rkeptrading@gmail.com. Just PM or email him. His prices are pretty decent.

    Eric sent them on the 23rd of May, so hopefully the package arrives next week. He said he is using EMS so theoretically it should come by Monday/Tuesday, if not Wednesday or Thursday.

    Ahhh, I see. Thanks for the tip. I bought an MX80 from Eric a while ago so I know he's a great seller. I didn't know he was still selling Victor equipment though!

    But the thing is, I'm not as old as you guys might think! :D The shoes will be more of present for me from my relatives in China.

    Does anyone know where one can buy or try the SH9000ACE in the south Bay Area? Thanks. (According to some quick googling, neither Racket Supply, Badminton Alley, or Bay Badminton Center carry it...)

    I would buy it from Eric, but I would prefer to have a local retailer so I can try it on and make sure I have the correct size before buying.
