Well after few session using this shoe, I would said it is very comfortable and provide good cushioning and support. Also this shoe is very lightweight and flexible. It lock down your foot really well during game with the Quattro fit design.
I will say that after 1 2hour training session that the left shoe already shows some wear from lunging.
Ya it looks great but I think I'll try putting white tape on the toe area. Does anybody know what kind would be the best to protect the leather?
Badminton is a very intensive sport for the feet. There's a lot of feet movement and lunging so it is reasonably expected that shoes will show signs of wear even after the first use. A better test and conclusion of durability would be to see how the shoes hold up after a few months. My opinion is that badminton shoes in general will be at their best for only 6-12 months. Depending on how serious of a player you are and also how often you play, there will be A LOT of wear and tear by the end of the 12 months. And this is the same for any pair of badminton shoes from any brand.
Ordered these shoes received them yesterday and had a session today. I have wide flat feet and yet these shoes are insanely comfy, light and fast. Highly recommend them.
I'd like to buy them. Can someone compare this new shoe model with the SHB MX 102? Especially if this new model is narrower on both sides or not.
Have the 102ltd and mx before I got the f1n ltd. The sides of the f1n are more narrow to me which I like better. It is a VERY comfortable shoe, don't notice the weight much.
