Collection: Boys / Junior Badminton Shoes, Trainers & Footwear

BadmintonHQ stock a large range of junior and boys badminton shoes from badminton brands including Yonex, Babolat, Victor and Forza. 

Why buy junior / boys specific badminton shoes?

Well badminton shoes may look like other shoes, however they have been engineered with specialised technology to help you during badminton play, particularly in avoiding injury and maximising speed around court.

Ultimately this subtle difference is absolutely essential both in terms of reducing risks of both short and long term injuries, particularly around the ankles, knees and hips. So important for junior players!

In badminton we spend a lot of time on the front of our feet, with quick directional changes and explosive movements. Unlike regular trainers, badminton shoes are designed to limit and prevent injury in these often repetitive motions and movement patterns. 

Badminton shoe fitting tips

Getting the right fit is often the most important factor when choosing the correct boys badminton shoes. Due to this all badminton shoe orders will be provided with a free to cut insole as standard. 

Something else to note in regards to fitting is that during exercise and throughout the day our feet may spread/swell therefore trying shoes on in the afternoon or evening may lead to an overall better fit. The foot should be located centrally within the shoes and the toes free to move within the toe box.

How to choose the right badminton shoes for you?

We stock a wide range of boys & junior badminton shoes at a variety of price points, however, unlike many other retailers, we don't just stock the whole catalogue from each brand as we recognise too much choice can lead to confusion. We have specifically identified the best shoes from each brand to make your choice that little bit easier. 

We've also created a separate guide on the key considerations for choosing a badminton shoe, which you can find by clicking here.

Should you you not wish to read our guide here are a few quick tips:

Firstly decide the budget you want to work with and then consider how much badminton you plan to play every week. We've made it easy to look for shoes within your budget range, just use the price filter on the left hand side of the shoes page.

When it comes to men's badminton shoes, a higher price is traditionally linked to greater technology built into the badminton shoe. If you play badminton multiple times a week a more expensive shoe may last longer than multiple cheaper pairs leading to greater value overall. 

Previous or recurring injuries is another reason why investing in proper badminton trainers will be vital for you when trusting your footwork back on court. In this instance it may be worth choosing a more premium, supportive shoe, to offer the best protection to your body.
