YONEX Akayu Super 6 Tru Cushion Badminton Shoes

YONEX Akayu Super 6 Tru Cushion Badminton Shoes

The Yonex Akayu Super 6 is a popular intermediate-level badminton shoe known for its "Tru Cushion" technology, which focuses on shock absorption and foot stability. It is designed for players who need a balance of comfort and performance at a budget-friendly price point.

• Tru Cushion: This is the standout feature, consisting of two layers. The inner sole uses a soft EVA sheet for initial comfort, while the Phylon midsole provides high resilience to absorb shock and reduce fatigue during jumps and lunges.
• Tru Shape: An ergonomically contoured upper that provides more room for the toes and a snugger fit around the midfoot and heel, preventing the foot from sliding inside the shoe.
• Radial Blade Sole: The outsole features a "windmill" pattern that increases grip by roughly 3% compared to standard soles, allowing for faster directional changes.
• Double Russel Mesh: This highly breathable mesh is lightweight and provides significantly better air exchange than standard mesh, keeping your feet cool during long matches.
• Durability: Features Tough Guard III or similar reinforced PU in high-wear areas (like the inner toe) to prevent the shoe from scuffing during floor-dragging movements.
