Badminton shoes are specialized shoes for playing badminton. The first performance of badminton shoes is the slip resistance of the sole, as well as the cushioning, impact resistance, and wear resistance. Badminton courts are mostly used on wooden floors, and among the materials, raw rubber soles are the best.
Badminton courts are mainly divided into three categories: plastic flooring, wooden flooring, and cement flooring. Once there is a fall or other situation on a cement court, it is often more serious than on a wooden or plastic court, so it is not suitable as a competition court. As for wooden and plastic courts, each has its own advantages. Wooden courts are more prone to slippery surfaces due to moisture or sweat from athletes during competitions, while plastic courts not only have the same elasticity as wooden courts, but also have shock absorption and anti slip capabilities. Therefore, plastic courts are used as competition venues for international competitions; With the improvement of living standards and the reduction of the cost of plastic venues, venues for amateur athletes' activities have also begun to popularize the use of plastic venues.
When it comes to choosing sneakers, people who pay attention to it usually wear suitable ones for the competition venue. Therefore, those volleyball shoes in the market can be used as secondary badminton shoes, and the soles will become very slippery without much wear and tear after playing. Therefore, caution should be exercised when purchasing to avoid wasting money. Artificial rubber soles come in two types: hard soles and soft soles. Hard soles are like tennis shoes that are suitable for cement or gravel surfaces, while soft soles are designed for playing on plastic surfaces. Regardless of the shoes worn, the most important thing is to have an idea that shoes for indoor basketball should be worn only when needed.
