Description
Shoes designed for competition enthusiasts, or those seeking performance: responsive for quick changes of direction, protective to avoid the impact of repeated shocks and injuries, they are also appreciated by professional players for their comfort and breathable materials. You will be focused on what matters most, your game.
Babolat Shadow 4 Badminton Shoe is ideal for competitive players. The soles of this pair of Babolat badminton shoes have been designed by Michelin and directly inspired by rally tyres. They will ensure players excellent performance over a long duration and optimal durability. Its incredible lightness will guarantee you faster movement on the court.
Visually, a revamped look that will set you apart from your opponents and perfectly complement the rest of your outfit.
The midsole is equipped with DCS Tech technology which allows it to absorb shocks and provide a dynamic push-off.
Note the presence of a very effective additional reinforcement (Front Rubber) at the front of the foot for superior abrasion resistance, especially on forward lunges, while the rear of the shoe integrates a bumper (Bumper) designed to protect the heel for smooth cushioning, particularly during lunges. Finally, the Soft Shield reinforcement located on the front of the foot, on the inner side, prevents premature wear of the shoe at this precise point. This protection now extends from the front of the foot to its inner face.
Taking the advantage will only be possible if you are reactive and precise in your positioning and movements. The engineering teams from Michelin and Babolat collaborated for many months to develop a sole with remarkable performance: a three-dimensional stud, combined with a unique rubber formula, ensures explosive movements and control of sudden stops, without compromising durability.
The grip under the outsole is equipped with the new Active Sculpture, it is three-dimensional to guarantee explosive movements and immediate stops. 10% lighter than before, 20% more grip than the previous model for more dynamism.
The heel, heavily stressed, is protected by a bi-density sole that absorbs shocks and at the same time promotes rebound. The shoe’s structure has been designed to support the foot for all types of pressure; the upper material adapts to the shape of the foot while preventing it from moving inside the shoe. Play with complete safety. There is also a tongue and an upper in Ariaprene and 3D Mesh Tongue to improve foot hold and thus provide more comfort and dynamism.
Discomfort and irritation should not spoil the pleasure of playing and the desire to win. The Shadow 4 is comfortable even after several hours of play: the soft tongue and high collar surround the foot without squeezing it too much, the moulded antibacterial insole fits the shape of the foot and prevents odour formation, and the upper material allows your foot to breathe.
