    Please help to identify whether the shoes are real or counterfeit. Thank you.
    I had a a pair of Yonex shoes before and I do not think this is how power cushion should look like. thanks

    Try bending the shoes in half, if they do, they are fake. The real ones have a carbon sheet in the sole so it should stop them bending in half.

    A friend of mine had fake 87 LTD and compared against my real ones, this was what was noticeable.

    Kindest regards,

    There might be a possibility that where you bought it from took out the power cushion and changed it with his.

    All Yonex shoes are made in China, and everything else is just the same like any other sport shoes when you take off the cushion. My SHB02MX is just like the picture you show (the inside) and the cushion is black and looks very normal. I had to buy another Yonex cushion (for walking & running) and replace the original cushion because it felt like no cushion at all.
