The Karakal KF ProLite Badminton Shoes offer exceptional lateral stability due to the heel and forefoot band and lace Loop system which stops the foot rolling on sideways movement. Newly updated, Karakal have tweaked this popular shoe for improved performance, comfort and longevity.

So, what’s changed? The lace support system has been reinforced with long fibre microfibre, this gives the shoe more lateral support and added strength. The heel and forefoot band and lace Loop system also stops the foot rolling on sideways movement.

The improved Prolite shoes are now fitted with a Shock absorbing Gel Insole as standard. The Gel covers the heel and midsole to absorb impact and there is additional padding in the heel and ball of the foot for comfort. The top has a textured surface to cut down on foot movement and breathing holes to keep your foot cool.

The exclusive Karakal non-marking outsole with its built in turning circle is designed to make direction changes easier. The coloured Gum Rubber compound gives great adhesion when the foot is planted and deep grooves across the forefoot allow the toes to bend naturally. The TPU Anti – reverse bend insert provides stability and has the potential to reduce foot and lower limb injuries.

The Phylon midsole density has been adjusted for maximum comfort and support, the under-heel shock absorber and EVA layer under the Gel Insole add to the shock absorption properties.

The upper uses the highest quality Microfibre materials for the support areas and the mesh allows the foot to breathe. Cosmetic changes include coloured midsole units to match the shoe and self-colour tongue.
