    I am user of YONEX SHB 03. The shoe has been quite nice and worked well for more than 1 year. However the time for change i has come.
    Our badminton courts are cement floors with vinyl layerings for cushion. The vinyl flooring has become quite slippery.

    Please Recommend shoes with better grip. I would prefer to have yonex, artengo or li ning brand, because of their availability.

    Also I have wide feet and that is also a consideration

    Hmm is it a problem more with the floor than the shoes ?

    Maybe the floor needs a good brush or clean there is nothing worse than dusty floors which go slippery..

    Well, the floor is mopped and dried everyday. No much of dust.

    Plus outsole of my shoes are also hardened, causing more slippines.

    Anyways, it's time for new shoes.

    Hardened? Take some 3000 grit to it then.

    Honestly as mentioned the shoe can only grip as good as the flooring is .Maybe not dust but other things such as residual humidity can make the floors slippery.
