    I wear yonex SHB-90MX. it's very light and has pretty good traction when the floor is clean.

    FInallyyyyyy.....

    i just bought myself a wave gate II yesterday. will be trying them out today. i even got it for a 30% discount at RM132.30. as from these pages i have found out that it costs around RM151 per pair, i thought i got a good deal :D. very happy. maybe i will do a comparison between my old shoes and the new wave gate II that i just bought. better try it out for a month or so, just to really get the feel. this is the last month i will be playing anyways. will take a break in september and november for the fasting month and the celebration of the end of fasting month. will probably start again in december. :D maybe i will do the comparison and general review in september. :D

    I just picked up a pair of the yonex 100's he regulatr ones not the limiteds so i will try them out tomorrow but i have a feeling i will be greatly satisified with them. My shb 99 LE's are more or less on their last end there still usable but well not in the best quality abter what 8-9 months of hard use and abuse.

    I've been wearing SHB 99MX for a year and a half, just got a pair of SHB 90MX, first impression: less roomy, i think "snug" is the word... especially at the heel where the support is a lot better. I think 99's are lighter though, feels more natural to me. cushioning I'd say goes to the 90, but drawback is it is higher off the ground. both have pretty good ventilation. :)

    Not sure how prevalent they are in the UK atm, but picked up some SHB-100LTD last weekend. Waiting on a new racquet to arrive as the old one's bust :(

    Hi.

    I am using Victor's VT-72 badminton shoes. Sorry no pic.

    So far, it is quite durable. The double cushion fits comfortably. Am using this for my gym sessions also.

    I guess i need a new pair soon.

    Inquiry: (For those who bought yonex shoes)

    Does it always come with a black shoe bag? :confused::confused::confused: My previous 3 shoes doesn't have any shoe bag in them.
