The Yonex Aerus Z2 wide white/green badminton shoes (2026 Edition) are among the lightest and most agile models in the Aerus series and were developed for players looking for an extremely lightweight, breathable, yet stable badminton shoe with a wide fit. The Aerus Z2 impresses with its dynamism, comfort, and excellent energy return – ideal for quick and reactive movements on the court.
Ultralight for maximum speed
Weighing only about 240–250 g per shoe, the Aerus Z2 is among the lightest badminton shoes available. This low weight supports explosive starts, fluid changes of direction, and a particularly agile playing feel.
Power Cushion+ – strong cushioning & energy return
The Power Cushion+ technology effectively absorbs impact forces and releases energy during the rolling motion. This noticeably relieves stress on joints while simultaneously creating more dynamic movement in every step.
Breathable, lightweight upper material
The upper material, made of double raschel mesh and durable skin light, offers excellent ventilation and high wearing comfort. Even during intense matches, the foot remains well-ventilated and stable.
Optimal grip and safety on the indoor floor
The combination of radial blade sole and round sole provides excellent traction, secure grip, and precise changes of direction. Perfect for quick stops and controlled acceleration.
Power Graphite Sheet – Stability without added weight
A lightweight carbon-graphite plate in the midsole increases torsional stability and minimizes the risk of twisting – without making the shoe heavier.
Wide fit for added comfort
The wider version of the Aerus Z2 offers more room in the forefoot without sacrificing control. Ideal for players who need a little more space but still want a snug, precise fit.
