As the latest generation of VICTOR’s Speed series badminton shoes, S82 is simply designed on the outside yet functionally sophisticated on the inside. Apart from the upgraded lightweight anti-slip patterns on the bottom, S82 also adopts the compound fabric upper that’s never been used in Speed series. If looking closely, it can be seen that there are five delicate layers of cut parts on top of each other to achieve incredible breathability, stability, and wear-resistance.
The upper of S82 is not only made with a large area of breathable mesh, but also resilient, stable, and durable. The lateral outside is further reinforced with TPU to provide greater support during side-to-side movement. To achieve better wear resistance than regular leather shoes, the inner toe of S82 is built with wear-resistant TPU material up to the V-Durable+ standard.
The special sole design for Speed series remains in use. The NeoDuplex midsole consists of an upper and a lower layer. The lower part is made with highly dense EVA to support midfoot when landing on tiptoes and facilitate force transmission from heel to forefoot—an ideal structure for reducing fatigue from longtime wearing.
The comfort on soles can definitely not be neglected. EVA padding is used throughout the foot sole to provide softness and shock-absorption. The ENERGYMAX V on heels further brings better elasticity.
ENERGYMAX V Improve the shock absorption on the heels when striding forward. Strengthen the rebound ability of the heels during speedy defense. The shock absorbability is increased by 27%, and the bounce power is raised by 30%.
LIGHT RESILIENT EVA A new, completely upgraded lightweight, highly resilient, and durable midsole, which has a 16% in durability when compared to the original high resilient EVA. It improves the life-span of shoes, reduced 19% of weight. flexibility increased by 5%, and lowered muscle burden in intensive exercises, which allows one to take agile paces quickly.
CARBON POWER The three-dimensional carbon fiber sheet provides mid-sole stability and decreases the torsional strain on the foot's arch.
VSR ANTI-SLIP Upgraded out-sole rubber, slip-resistant performance increases by 21% on dry PU floors.
V-DURABLE+ The inner surface of the toe is equipped with protective coatings and a wear-resistant layer for upgraded endurance. In a wear level testing, the wear-resistant technology applied to the toe is proved 8 times more wear-resistant than average PU leather.
