    Aerus are speed category shoes which are light sacrificing some protection.
    What are ur form? Big panda like me:p or slim?

    A Series are all rounder which give better protection but abit more weight. If you are slim, probably A series are enough for you.
    P are the best comfort & protection but the heaviest of all. I own P9200CC myself & hardly feel any heel pain using it.

    My form somewhat similar to u:D but 4kg heavier:oops:.
    My old shoes are A950. Ok protection but had to add heel insole gel for extra cushion.
    Now i use P9200 without additional cushion & doing fine even on hard intense games.
    Other good thing about P9200 is it had even more stable footing that A950. Somewhat heavier but im more confident on pushing harder than before due to the stability. So consider you had previous injury, i think P series is what you need. Cant comment about P9600 but as its P series, its likely had better protection than A series.

    Yonex comfort Z 3 and Asics court control ff might also be an option for you. If you transition from aerus z, I would recommend the Asics since it still has the speed profile but with added gel cushioning. If you don't mind the weight or want to change to a more cushioned category, the P9200II and Yunting are great from my experience. They have very slight differences.

    instead of buying new shoes, you might want to consider the cheaper alternative of just adding a stronger cushion insole.

    I have Yonex z3 with a Hefeluxx (basically Adidas Boost) insole that helps with the added cushioning.

    Got it.

    In that case you may want to look into the Yonex Comfort Z? It wasn't available when I was buying shoes, but no doubt if I'm in the market for shoes that's the one I'd go for.

    I know this may be controversial, but have you looked at basketball shoes? Some, not all, may provide you the support and cushioning you need (The Kobes, the Curry or the GT Cut) and they shouldn't be too bad for badminton since they should provide the lateral support for side to side movements.

    Basketball indeed had better cushion coz its designed for ..... Eerrrrr.... BASKETBALL.
    They jump really high, running, & all basketball movement pattern but not badminton.

    To some little extend yes it can be used for badminton, you could use volley ball shoes to if you want. Again to some little extend. But when you start dashing, jump smash, or ur movement become more intense, they do not provide stability for the intense badminton movement. At least lateral movement on basketball are not to intense.
