I have extremely narrow feet. I bought the 100ltds because they were the only decent sho that I didn't bottom out the laces on. The seem to have a quite wide toe-box, compared to my last pair of shoes (can't remember the model, SHB-71? or 77? Something like that)
these shoes looks nice! but the most important thing is whether you feel comfortable or not when wearing the shoe
I am finding that I really like the 200 more and more each day. Not only is it super comfortable, but it became quite stylish when wearing with gym pants. I find I unzip the bottom of the pants slightly to show off the design and it looks much better from a stand up angle then it does on picture when its being photographed at same level. I've worn both the 08' 100LTD and these, while the 100s has lateral claws, these didn't feel much different at all being the ribs on the side is well supported. And Yes! I am doing the correct footwork under a well known China team coach. https://secure.ksb.net/badminton/user/viewCoachDetail.asp?id=47 So, that being said. The deal where I gotten mine was excellent compared with the mail order of my 100LTD. I'm thinking of getting another pair just as spares since size 9.5US sells out fast.
My shb101mx's arrived today they look lush much better than the picture which they also look good in i cant wait to try them out, there is much more space in the end than my shb90mx's which have served their duty. il say how they felt later, if i try them out. I dont know if i will as i have a match and changing shoes isnt the best idea but who knows
i wore them last night for a few tame games and thought they were great when not playing the nobly bits on the insole feel weird but when on court you dont notice apart from the fact that my feet didnt slide inside the shoe. the shoes are wicked and just need softening before they are amazing, giev them a few hours and theyll be fine.
Hi Noppy, I also had shb90mx before, which I held unto as long as I could :crying:. I've since had to replace them and went with the 91. The ankle support is a bit higher, the toe box wider and it feels stiffer and hotter overall. I definitely preferred the 90 but there just wasn't any equivalent to choose from. From what I've read in the forums, the 100 seems to be shorter than other models so you should check whether that's also the case with the 101 or not. Cheers, Mike
Hi Mike i actually had size 11 uk for the 90's which was too small and so i stretched them i had a picture to show this in one of my other posts, so when i bought my new 101's i bought size 11.5 thinking it would still be a little tight, because they didnt make size 12 only size 12.5 which i know wouldve been too large, anyways But the size 11.5 are perfect my toes are just off the end , but the only thing kinda bugging me is the lateral claw things are crushing the side of my feet. I am assuming this will go once they are worn in. ive only worn them for 2 hours so far. i find them more comfortable and less hot, but thats probably cus they have new insoles, and the toe box is massive in the 101's too cheers Gav
Really great looking shoes.. which one do u guys think is nicer, SHB 101M or SHB 98 MX ?? Feel like buying one of this... hahaha....
You guys are so lucky...have been eyeing the SHB200 but have to wait till July when stocks arrive!!!:crying::crying::crying:
hey noppy...just wondering how much did your 101's cost?...my local store doesnt have 101 stock right now and 200's cost $170 CDN (~$140 USD?)... iam planning on getting 200's but just wondering how much 101's cost whereever you live...thanks~
I paid £55.99 GBP and that was from direct sports eshop which converts to approx $101 CDN according to XE currency converter Gav
