Hundred Phenom Badminton Shoes - White/Blue/Yellow

The Hundred Phenom Badminton Shoes HBFS‑5M243‑5 are built as a complete performance shoe for modern badminton players. Rather than chasing the lightest, softest or stiffest design, Hundred made the Phenom an “everything shoe” – balancing speed, stability, cushioning, durability and control for explosive attacks, fast recoveries, aggressive lateral movement and long-match endurance. It marks Hundred’s entry into the professional performance category.

Key Features

• Goodyear® DuraGrip outsole – developed with Goodyear, a specialised rubber compound balancing aggressive traction with long-term durability; the tread supports rapid changes of direction while resisting abrasion. Reliable grip and consistent court control.
• Thrust Foam heel cushioning – absorbs heavy landings and returns energy without compromising stability. Reduced joint stress and faster recovery between movements.
• Carbon‑Kinetic support plate – built into the base to improve torsional resistance and midfoot stability, keeping the foot aligned during lateral shifts and defensive reactions.
• Z‑Lock stability base – a stiffened foam structure that increases torsional resistance for a firm, anchored feel in fast side-to-side movement.
• Skeletal Insole System – a sculpted insole with built-in arch support; foam-padded forefoot ridges prevent internal sliding during explosive starts and stops.
• ArmorMesh upper – breathable with structural support, for cooler feet, a lightweight feel and a secure, close fit.
• DuraCore reinforcement zones – panels protect high-wear areas from abrasion without adding bulk, for a longer shoe lifespan.
• Performance-tuned midsole geometry – balances cushioning, court feel and stability for smooth transitions between attack, defence and recovery, with less fatigue in long matches.

Performance Overview

Studying the professional market, Hundred found that every shoe excelled at something, but none excelled at everything. The Phenom was designed around the full performance needs of professional players and avoids extremes:

• Stability without stiffness
• Cushioning without loss of court feel
• Durability without excess weight
• Speed without sacrificing control

The result is a shoe that performs consistently in every phase of play, from explosive attacks to defensive recovery and extended rallies.

The White / Blue / Yellow colourway is a clean, tournament-ready look that reflects the Phenom’s all-round identity. (Other HBFS‑5M243 colourways available separately.)
