    Hey guys, I am in need of new shoes! I am flat footed and wear spenco insoles. The surfaces I play on are either hard wood (feels much harder than wood really) and some kind of blue rubbery surface (I like playing here).
    I don't really have a budget and my feet aren't wide. I live in the UK so unfortunately I don't have as many options as the people in Asia.

    I'm considering the high end models from Yonex and Victor but I really have no clue what I should be looking for? I play around 4-6 hours a week and I'm hoping the new shoes would last me 1 - 1.5 years.

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks! :)

    Right now I'm using SHB Comfort Tour. Very comfortable shoes ! I also own Victor SH P9100. The cushion is good or I can say equal to Yonex's Power Cushion.

    I would go for the SHB03Z, they look gorgeous and reviews have been pretty positive so far. Avoid the Aerus esp the first gen, they lasted me 4 months before they tore at the front. Using the SHB 65 ATM and they are pretty good in terms of grip and comfort, durability after a week of playing isnt too bad no scuffs or marks so far.
