There are the commerical versions, which is the normal shoes you buy in stores, then there are the level 2 shoes which are made with better quality and given to sponsored players and those with connections. My coach had these shoes and the only way he got them was because he had connections with the Yonex distributor in LA. Then theres the top of line, level 3 shoes which are reserved for a couple of national teams only. These are made of the best quality handpicked, and are fucking exspensive. For example, Japan shoes are these level 3 shoes from Yonex. They can go for like $500-$600. For Li Ning, AFAIK China also has Level 3 shoes ofc, but you cannot even get access to those shoes unless you are actually on the Chinese national squad. For the Chinese Junior National squad, they are sponsored by Kelson and you cannot get their shoes either unless you are on the team. The chinese team members don't sell those shoes ever. So for Zhang to throw those shoes away is a big moment for the guy who got it, assuming he knows how much those are worth... | ||
