    But they say forefoot sole is thickened by 60% and heal by 6% for shock absorption and comfort. If you compare the technologies between 9500 and 9600 they are almost same, TPU to E-TPU and both uses light and feather EVA. Only reason I went with 9200cc is because I didn't like the colour schemes of 9500, i tried to look for 9500CY but they are super expensive compared to original ones.

    Agreed on 6500, better price to feature offering.

    Can't really say NO. I am looking forward to P9600 and A970. But really happy with 9200cc for now.

    Just a guess by me and judgement from photos. I can be damn wrong. They changed too much at the same time and kept nearly nothing from the P200 to P9500 DNA so I don't have high expectations.

    My experience with LI-NING is so good. I loved the quality of the materials, they feel extremely comfortable and with excellent support and traction, the latter is extremely important to me since I practice table tennis and bought them to play the post-season of the league where I compete. I purchase them online here. I have had Nike and Adidas to play sports but these have been some of the best for both indoor and outdoor use, very good materials and the details are excellent

    The issue about Lining are not their quality but more about their categorizing. They had bunch of model with very good looking but very minimal info about it. Is it specificly for light shoes, or its more about support & stability, or its an allrounder?
    The same mistake on their racket. To much model with spec that very close each other & all range of price from very cheap, abit cheap, cheap, so so, abit expensive, somewhat expensive, very expensive & super expensive.
    Feel like they had price for almost all economic segment.

    just wonder how many shoes that you've ever tried XD
    could u tell us what is your best recommendation for lining shoes
    i use p9200ii tty, the shoes is very stable and good
    just the toe box was a little bit narrow, so i hurt my right foot toe (im right-handed)
    the temporary solution is i use toe cushion
    but im looking for subtitution in lining shoes (i just got suggested by a friend jf 01 pro and DF 01)
    but i like comfort cushioned stable shoes
    what's your recommendation? and what's lining shoes that same like p9200ii tty?
    thanks before

    Have you tried P8500II, they are U 2.5 and has a bit more room in toe area.
    I own both P9200 and 8500II. I am long term fan of P8500 first gen (U 3.0), that's why i bought 85000II because of wide toe shape.

    Never tried lining so far. 8500II took me a week to break in with 1hr of play everyday. This is because the outer rubber and cushioning inside is thick compared to 9200.
    I replaced the stock insole with XD11H. Now it feels exactly like 9200 with more room for toe.

    If you get to try lining shoes, drop your feedback. Curious to know.

    I think the XD10 is being replaced by the XD11? Local shops here used to stock the XD10, but they all no longer have them and only have the 11.

    XD11 H specifically, it supports my high arch foot well. It's been long I haven't seen XD10 where I live.

    Also curious to hear about the DF-01 shoes. Not sure why but Li Ning just seems to be such a difficult brand to research in to outside of Europe .-. I messaged Li Ning UK shop about wide fit and they were like "just go up half a size". Having sold shoes in one of my previous jobs (albeit for fashion rather than sports), that wasn't really ever advice we would have recommended

    I'm also curious about the DF-01. I've been using the Yonex 65z for 4 years now so want to try the lining for a change :D

    already wearing this beast for 3 months, 2-3 session per week (3 hours per session)
    if you want wide version of DF-01, just choose the white red color, it's wide version
    but you have to try it by yourself if i would suggest

    my friend was wearing shb 65z3 before, but after seeing me use df-01 he bought it too
    and he told me that df-01 is better than 65z3 because it has more cushion
    he feels that df01 provides more protection too than 65z3 coz it's thicker

    when i tried shb65z3, it's good but not good when i tried df01
    i feel my heel is higher than the toe when i use 65z3, but with df01, i feel more stable and it really wrap my feet perfectly
    i use victor shoes before and had no preference in brand
    so u might consider lining as your choice, but really
    this lining brand never tell u the type of shoes
    you have to put more time to learn what kind of shoes that you're going to buy

    Have you any slippage with the Linings ? I read some comments on badmintoncn and there was quite a few that say it was slippery for the models I looked at

    once, but there's sweat on the court. it's happen when i was on training with a lot of people
    but it was really steady when i slip, so no harm was done
    but after that, never happen again, and i hope never will
    i play on wood and rubber court
    and it's fine

    the slippery one is lining thunder
