Step 1 of 3
How to choose a badminton shoe
Badminton shoes are lightweight indoor court shoes with a non-marking gum sole. The main differences are how much cushioning and support they give.
| Feature | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Non-marking gum sole | Grips indoor courts without leaving marks (usually required by halls). |
| Cushioning | Absorbs impact from jumps and lunges; look for impact-relief midsoles. |
| Stability | A supportive upper and stable base protect the ankles on fast direction changes. |
| Weight | Lighter shoes help speed; a little more structure adds durability. |
Caring for your shoes
- Keep them for indoor use only, to protect the gum sole and the floor.
- Let them air and dry between sessions.
- Replace them when the cushioning packs down or the grip wears smooth.
