hm...lee's badminton in markham ontario seems to list two mizuno badminton shoe models on their website...http://www.leesbadminton.ca/modeng/name/onlinestore/category/8 it's the 7KM31051 ($115) and the 7Km 62009 ($120).
asics gel sensei 2.... is this good choice for badminton shoes? Or should I get asics gel tactic, asics gel rocket 4, mizuno wave tornado 3, mizuno wave lightning four. Or I can't go wrong with either of these choices. I'm currently using new balance 621 running shoes as badminton shoes .
Geez, any one of them is a hell lot better than your NB621. You better change out of those before you get injured. I got my first ankle injury from playing with running shoes and that ankle has been funny for over 20years already.
It's a lot easier now to aquire Mizuno and Asics shoes in Canada. Just checked Sports Chek. They had a few models there, didn't realy see which one. Only problem is that it's pricey.
You are paying good money for good quality shoes. Those shoes would go a long way towards injury prevention and health. I wonder how many people would compromise their health and lifestyle for a good deal.
Hello, I'm looking for shoes which have proper cushioning without compromising balance. I jump a lot on court and currently suffer from periodic forefoot, ankle and knee aches. I have been recommended Asics Gel-Tactic by my coach. Please advise if it would be a good choice Thanks very much!
Asics Gel Beyond is what Joachim Person and Tine Rasmunsen use... Supposed to be high end indoor court shoes from Asics...
Yes, the Gel Tactic is specifically made for badminton with forefoot and rearfoot gel cushioning. Same goes for the Gel Beyond while the Gel Blade 2 has only forefoot gel. I am using a pair of Gel Tactic right now (migrated from Yonex shoes). Definitely more cushioning then Yonex, as I do a lot of jump smashes. Bear in mind, they are a tight-fit at the beginning but will readjust to your feet in about a month's time. If u are looking for a shop with a lot of Asics models to try, go to Etakoh @ Pertama Complex. That's where I bought mine.
Gel Tactic for RM270 (stated in second para). Also tried on the Gel Beyond but went for the Tactic as it felt more comfortable.
peeps need some advice, i just got this asics but after getting it it have a chop marks says rhino skin is that from a animal? as in poacher skin?
it's not quit a good thing then. will be more a sure the next time i buy some thing. when there is demand there is one more animal kill just for a skin ..... thank awekuda.
i don't think its used real rhino skin.. more to synthetic skin with same characteristic like rhino.. if asics used real rhino skin its price would be sky high.. as real rhino skin would be hard to get..just enjoy your new shoe since its not real rhino skin
