The Yonex Power Cushion 65 Z4 VA Wide brings the proven all-round performance of the 65-Z series to a noticeably wider fit. The 4E-Wide construction offers more room in the shoe, making it especially interesting for players with wider feet or anyone who finds the regular 65 Z fit too narrow.
On top of that, you get the familiar combination of cushioning, stability, and fast footwork, plus the distinctive look of the Viktor Axelsen Collection.
Highlights
- 4E-Wide fit for wider feet
- POWER CUSHION+ for comfortable cushioning
- Power Graphite Lite for extra midfoot stability
- Inner Bootie for a secure, comfortable fit
- Radial Blade Sole for reliable grip
- Lateral Shell for support during sideways movement
- Versatile all-round badminton shoe for training and matches
- Viktor Axelsen Edition
More Room with the 4E-Wide Fit
The main difference from the regular version is the 4E-Wide construction. The shoe is designed for a wider foot, offering more room without sacrificing the support that matters so much in badminton.
If regular badminton shoes feel too narrow on the sides, or you notice pressure in the foot area with the regular 65 Z, the Wide version is especially worth considering.
Important: Wide doesn't mean you should automatically buy the shoe a size smaller or larger. This version primarily changes the width and fit of the shoe.
Comfortable Cushioning for Fast Movements
In badminton, jumps, lunges, and fast starts often follow one another directly. POWER CUSHION+ helps cushion hard landings comfortably while supporting a dynamic feel for the next movement.
This keeps the shoe comfortable without feeling unnecessarily soft or spongy.
Stability Despite the Wide Fit
More room in the shoe shouldn't mean losing support during fast movements. Power Graphite Lite stabilizes the midfoot area, while the Lateral Shell provides extra support during sideways movement.
This keeps your foot controlled in the shoe even during fast stops, changes of direction, and explosive starts.
Secure Fit and High Wearing Comfort
The Inner Bootie construction wraps the foot comfortably and, together with the Seamless Upper, provides a comfortable, secure fit.
Especially during longer training sessions or tournament days, the combination of more room and a stable fit is a real advantage for players with wider feet.
Grip for Fast Footwork
The Radial Blade Sole supports fast movement in different directions and provides reliable grip on the badminton court.
Together with the Round Sole, it supports fluid transitions between lunges, sideways movement, and the fast return to your starting position.
How Does the Yonex Power Cushion 65 Z4 VA Wide Fit?
The 65 Z4 VA Wide has a 4E-Wide fit and is therefore noticeably wider than the regular version.
The Wide version is especially worth considering if:
- you have wider feet
- regular Yonex badminton shoes press on the sides
- you prefer more room in the forefoot and midfoot area
- you generally like the regular 65 Z but find it too narrow
On the other hand, if you have a normal or rather narrow foot and already get good support from the regular 65 Z, the standard or slim version is likely the better choice.
Who Is the Yonex 65 Z4 VA Wide For?
The shoe is especially suitable for players looking for a versatile badminton shoe with more room.
It's a great fit for:
- players with wider feet
- ambitious recreational and club players
- tournament players
- singles and doubles players
- players with fast, dynamic footwork
- players who want to combine cushioning and stability
- fans of the Viktor Axelsen Collection
The strength of the 65 Z4 remains its versatility, even in the Wide version: a comfortable, stable all-round badminton shoe that still offers enough mobility for fast footwork.
