This pair of budget sports shoes would be great for beginners or for kids – they are available from size 3 upwards – as they are designated ‘Multisport’ shoes. They come with a synthetic outer for breathability and strength, and a removable textile inner sole for comfort. Designed with racquet games in mind, the gum sole is a non-marking one so we have that covered.

Another area of comfort is provided by the weight of the shoe. There are many different shoes to choose from that will be variable in weight, and this is another factor that comes down to personal choice. Lighter shoes – it should be remembered – will perhaps not be as durable as heavier ones, but if your shoes are too heavy you will not be happy moving around. In 2024 Hi Tec will be 50.

Squash shoe soles are usually made from a form of gum that is sculpted to give you maximum grip and stability, and the science that has gone into designing these soles is quite advanced. The sole should also help with weight distribution, and aid your agility. Members would often remark on how unsuitable the footwear was, so Frank decided to create a light and comfortable squash shoe.
