Technologies

• Power Cushion Technology: This unique Yonex technology utilizes a proprietary material that absorbs impact shock and then reverses that energy for a smooth transfer into the next movement. The Power Cushion material’s resilience and shock-absorbing properties minimize stress on joints while maximizing energy return, leading to quicker footwork and reduced fatigue. The specific molecular structure of the material allows for this efficient energy transfer.  

• Arch Support Enhancement: The insole features a raised metatarsal support and contoured arch design. This provides targeted support to reduce overpronation (inward rolling of the foot) and maintain proper foot alignment. This stability is crucial during quick lateral movements and helps prevent injuries. 

• Honeycomb Ventilation System: The honeycomb pattern on the insole’s surface isn’t just for show. It creates channels for air to circulate within the shoe, enhancing breathability and preventing heat buildup and moisture accumulation. This helps keep feet cool and dry, even during long, intense matches. The specific material used in conjunction with the honeycomb design maximizes airflow.
• Lightweight Design: Constructed from lightweight materials, the AC 196EX minimizes added weight to your shoes, reducing fatigue during prolonged play. The insole’s contoured shape conforms to the foot’s natural contours for a snug, customized fit that won’t shift during play. 

Benefits of the Yonex AC 196EX

• Improved Agility: The combination of superior shock absorption and responsive energy return aids in quicker directional changes, a crucial element for badminton players.  

• Enhanced Comfort: Cushioned support reduces pressure on the feet, allowing players to focus solely on their game without distractions from foot discomfort.  

• Injury Prevention: Structured arch support and impact absorption work together to protect feet and joints from strain, reducing the risk of common badminton-related injuries.  

• Long-Lasting Performance: Durable materials ensure these insoles maintain their effectiveness over time, even with frequent use.
