Central sports have only the size 5½, tennis nuts have sizes 5½, 6½, 7½ and 11. Both in the SHB95

I need a 7½ and ordered it from tennis nuts but they called and said they don't even have them but are still advertising them. :confused:

Someone mailed me last night to say they found them but all the equipment looks two seasons out of date and they don't ansewer their phones so I can check

I have gone through 3 pairs of the SHB98's they are not durable, compared to the 92's they are crap and compared to the 95's they are nothing.

Why did I not buy more when I had the chance :(

[Phil McBride]

Managed to get a hold of them and they are sold out!!!!


Why do shops advertise things they do not have???? :mad: :mad: :mad:

[Loafer]

funny, mine are doing very well, i dont think I work hard enough to trouble them to be honest

[Loafer]

I did love my 95's but i played at a tennis club and they add a special tennis flooring that chewed the soft soles of badders shoes, like a cheese grater devouring montery jack!

i got through two pairs in a season. much better now, proper sports hall floor

Dear Guys,

By all means, try Mizuno. Very durable! I was told by a sports shoes specilist who was a GM of a famous sports shoes that Mizuno is number one in Japan in term of in-door shoes.

I have bought a pair of Mizuno Wave Angle(with 7KM code) one year ago for my son and he started abusing it: spend long hour playing badminton, indoor running training and walking on the street like a "walking shoes"(note: people in HK need to walk a lot and spend less time in a car)....the shoes is still serving very faithfully.

Are they available in UK? May be "www.badders.net" should import it for selling.

They tend not to be sold in the UK unless Volleyball versions although I believe they have a couple of badminton orientated versions.

Mizuno is very famous in indoor shoes. In Japan, Mizuno=king of indoor shoes. However, Mizuno badminton rackets are poor. YY has good racketstbut he shoes is only "so-so".

One of my friend had used YY shoes(top model) and YY cloths for quite a while(may be because he used top model YY racket) and complained about the durability. One day he bought a Mizuno(9KM code shoes), he liked the Mizuno(9Km code) very much. He even said both the footwork was faster and has better shock cushioning than all his YY shoes that he had been using for that many years. I told him Mizuno 9km code shoes is for Volley ball. He was very surprised that a Mizuno volley ball shoes outperformed all his YY top model shoes. Than he bought a 7km code badminton shoes.

Nevertheless, Volley ball shoes have a lot of similarity to Badminton shoes in: indoor, wooden floor, jump etc. (I don't know how to play Volley ball). In HK, Mizuno is very popular in the badminton court(that's my observation). Most of the guys that I know who played badminton seriously used Mizuno.

I recommend everyone should try(get 7km code if possible). I think shoes is even more important than racket(sports injury). Mizuno has very good cushioning, durability and fast response. In a very serious sense, we really abuse every Mizuno we have. :D
