    What are the SH-LYD like for wide feet? I have quite broad feet and wondered if these are suitable?

    I think they should be able to handle wide feet. Give them a try if you can. I like them very much. (Y)

    What about the sizing?

    I've only been using Yonex shoes, are Victor show sizes generally the same as Yonex?

    As these aren't available in the UK, I'll have to order it from Asia so won't be able to try them before buying...

    The pink colour certainly looked very attractive and sexy ... :p

    Bought a pair from MBS.
    Went with US9.5 after testing my mates 9.5US yonex.
    Hopefully the sizing doesn't differ too much.
    I normally wear US10 nike running shoes though but figured a yonex comparison would give better estimate.

    I'm trying to decide what size I need. I've never worn Victor shoes, but my Yonex shoe size is 27.5, do you think I should go for the same size for the SH-LYD?

    I find the best way is to go by the measurement in CM/MM - that way the size is correct. What colour are you getting??

    I'll probably go for the pink... To match the pink victor shirt I bought off you! :)

    You're not selling the T-4000 Q, are you?

    Part of me hopes not... I've just ordered some shorts from HK!

    Hi Mark - no - just the blue and yellow versions.

    Cheers

    Something of a relief - saves me having to get the black/pink shorts:D

    Any dates for the LYD G for Europe yet? Andreas only said "August"... WC, maybe?

    I'll let you know when I get mine.
    The US9.5 I ordered should be a 27.5cm

    I'm still considering whether I'll get a pair but can guarantee the green is the most likely.

    Still enjoying my 9100's and therefore in no need to buy another pair.

    When do we ever need new shoes?:p

    My 9100 FG are almost new, but I've pretty much resigned to buying the LYD G when they appear...

    I'm thinking of trying to locate some green sh850's to match the new tk9000.

    You really do want that divorce, don't you:D.

    The 9100 FG are the best match (with blue and green:p), but they're

    a) way more expensive, and
    b) not available over here.

    Ben might have some 850 G left, but you can always wait for the LYD G.

    Sorry, mate - I just cost you another 30 quid:D.

    I was very jammy - mine was a sample pair from the All England that happened to fit me; I don't even know where you'd get these from apart from deepest darkest... Asia:).
