ð¬ Technologies
â?Power Cushion+
Yonex's signature shock absorption system, Power Cushion+, disperses impact energy and converts it into forward propulsion. It allows players to move more quickly with less fatigue, while also protecting joints from stress during jumps and lunges. Compared to standard EVA cushioning, Power Cushion+ provides 28% more shock absorption and 62% more repulsion.
â?msLITE X Midsole
The midsole uses msLITE X, Yonexâs lightest-ever midsole material, which is approximately 10% lighter than previous generations. This results in a significant reduction in overall shoe weight, helping players react faster and transition between shots more efficiently.
â?Power Graphite Sheet
A strategically placed graphite plate runs through the midfoot to enhance lateral stability and torsional rigidity. This helps prevent ankle rolling and improves court balance when pushing off aggressively during rallies.
â?Durable Skin Light Upper
The upper features a unique polyurethane material that mimics the softness and flexibility of leather while offering long-lasting durability. It flexes naturally with your foot for a secure, glove-like fit without restricting quick movement.
â?Double Raschel Mesh
For ventilation, the Aerus Z Wide uses Double Raschel Mesh â?an ultra-fine mesh fabric that is not only lightweight but also extremely breathable. It ensures excellent airflow throughout the match, keeping your feet dry and fresh.
â?WIDE-LAST Ergonomic Design
Specifically engineered for players with broader feet, this wide-last shape increases comfort across the forefoot and reduces pressure buildup during long matches. It provides a more natural foot positioning and accommodates a wider range of foot shapes.
