i held the three F1's in my hands for the first time today. They were extremely light. But the sole of SHB-65FT is better than F1.
actually i am just wondering if all Yonex SHB shoes given a like 6 months warranty, your will be more willing to get it? or will cause to switch brand from others to Yonex
The question is not the warranty issue but the durability, overall quality and the materials used in the shoe. No amount of warranty will make me buy a sub-standard product.
well, there is always a trade off. Yonex is very comfortable. But it's not durable. It's also expensive. Mizuro is very durable and cheap. But it's not comfortable. It's not a question of standard. It's a question of preference.
It depends on which Yonex range you are referring to. Yonex JP? Yonex EX(SP)? Yonex Ultima? Yonex World Champ? By the way everything being equal if you buy it from the same place, Mizuno is not that cheap and in fact their mid to higher end range are about the same price as Yonex. I do not have a preference of either brands as both are fine with me here. I will NOT buy my preferable brand (if I have one) if the quality is poor.
ermm..after ni see detail shown in this thread..i personally think that this shoe is looked nice but not really attracted as shb92mx yellow..this shoe is really simple since is was made to be lighten as posible to maximum the the movement of the player in the court..before this..when i saw KT wearing it as MS OPEN..i think this shoe is the worst shoe made by yonex for this 2012 outline..but.. this shoe have a nice colour but i personally dont like the yonex logo..it was too big and striking..heheh...but after saw the detail and nice close up from the camera..i rely prefer to try this shoe on my feet..it was really nice..but i dont think LCW will wearing it since he really love his old yellow shoe..hehhee..i guess..
Although earlier in this thread I said I didn't like them not I am going crazy to decide which pair I should get next SHB-F1/SHB-65FT/SHB-86EX
SHB-65FT (JP version) is the best.. btw, is there a non-JP version of 65FT? don't tell me it's SHB-86EX
I know the SHB-65FT is the best but I want to try the SHB-F1 LTD and yes the SHB-86 is the international version of the SHB-65FT, have you recently bought the SHB-86EX?
no, i am still mulling things over. i still can't decide. SHB-65FT is of course the best (and it's the most expensive). But it's has no lateral claws.
Agree that Lateral Claw do add weight to the shoes. In my opinion it might be one of the reasons, why international players rarely wear Shoes with lateral claw.. SHB 65FT is quite popular among professional players these days..
I don't know about other shoes but SHB-100LTD, which has lateral claws, was one of the most popular and widely worn shoes back in 2008 among professional players.
Yeah if talking about SHB100, it was a very popular shoes back then..i am referring to SHB 102 series.. As I can recall Saina Nehwal wore it, however i hardly noticed other players wore it.
it's about hkd590 in hk. saw those beauty the other day. i couldn't justify buying a new pair since i still have 2 seldom worn yonex shoes.
Great! I have tried shb F1 MX, it looks very eye catching and attractive in design. I liked it very much. The F1 was very light in weight, lighter than my old shoes like SHB 85Ltd, SHB 101Ltd, SHB100Ltd. F1 has flexibility like SHB 85Ltd, but feel more solid. It support very well on my heel so when I have to jump smash many times I felt confidence. Have no worry with my knee. Since I was an offensive player. And I felt more easily when I was jumping smash because the repulsion from the shoes. You can still play the game with more attractive, because of your skill that support by great looking and performance of your F1.
