bro , do u have this shop phone number? i wish to cal him asking for some of his products... thanks...
Hi CYW. Try calling 04-228 2968. Very friendly and warm family run business. I am sure you'll find something you need from them. Justin
i swapped the insoles on my vt7000c to some thicker cushioned insoles. the ones which came with the shoe dont seem durable.
Hi jymbalaya, I weighed it and it is barely 350 grams, more towards 340 grams. I can't give you a more accurate reading as mom's cake powder weighing thingamagic scale doesn't go any more detailed than 50 grams each. Justin
wondering...how undurable are Victor shoes as noted by dear Victor users? thought of getting one VT-7000C
I think shoe durability varies depending on how the users treat and care for them (proper airing for them to dry after a game, stuffing newspapers inside to soak the moisture and help maintain the shape, not using them for anything else but badminton, walking with them only on badminton courts etc.) I personally feel that if you do take proper care of your shoes, it will last a good year plus. Then you have to worry if the cushioning inside your shoe has worn out first before the actual shoe itself One thing I noticed about the new Victor VT-7000 series is that the insole is just a very basic insole. I am planning to change it to something better for more cushioning and better arch support. Justin
One more, the VT-7000 is a very flexible shoe. I think the best thing is to just try the VT-7000 series and the 805 with your badminton socks and see how they feel to make your own judgment. Justin
