Yonex Power Cushion Aerus Z Badminton Shoes are the lightest Yonex shoes to date, at only 250g. As the game speed increases, every small advantage counts, less weight and high performance for the pro player. Double-Russel Mesh upper, graphite plates and Hyper msLite have stripped the weight away while providing the high performance expected from these shoes.
3-Layer Power Cushion is a signature shock absorption system. Power cushion absorbs impact and rebounds it to help spring you into your next step. The 3-layer power cushion is soft enough to rebound an egg without cracking, but aid in power for leaps and explosive dives.
Hyper msLite - lighter and stronger than EVA, Yonex shoes hold their original shape longer. Hyper msLite and advanced polyester based material is used in the mid-soles of the shoe to improve build quality and enhance play
Power Graphite Light - A graphite plate in the midsole of the shoe replaces the heavier plastic supports. This reduces the weight while increasing the midfoot rigidity for improved support and speed.
Tough Guard IV - Improvements in material strength while reducing weight have strengthened the drag area to improve the durability.
Syncro-Fit Insole - A change in the insole design improves the contact area of the mid and rear of the foot. Elevated sections of the insole gives imporved contact with the foot, this allows impacts to be spread across the width of the heel and PowerCushion to lessen the impact.
Hexagrip Sole a Yonex grip pattern on the sole of the shoe. Using hexagonal grip aids in multi-directional traction for increased movement speed and changes of direction.
Round Sole improves the gait of the foot by allowing grip from the heel through to the front of the toes. The rounded effect aids in a more flowing movement.
Double Russel Mesh upper that aids in ventilation while helping provide structure at a light weight.
Please note Yonex shoes tend to be small fitting and it is advisable for most to go up by a half or full size.

For agile and stable footwork, the hexagrip pattern provides 3% more grip and is 20% lighter than standard sole material.

Hyper msLite is a further 10% lighter than the original high-performance midsole and provides greater durability and comfort.

The YONEX Round Sole is designed to provide all-around support for quick and smooth footwork. The Round Sole ensures smooth movements and transfer of maximum energy.

Offering extra support around the front of the heel and reducing the gap between the foot and shoe, the Syncro-Fit insole ensures maximum grip and improves comfort and performance.

Tough Guard IV provides improved protection towards friction and heat abrasion—roughly 30% more than the original. Also with a more solid fit and softer reinforcing material at the toes, Tough Guard IV is specifically made with badminton’s quick and unique footwork in mind.
