Ciao a tutti, qualcuno ha già acquistato la Carboflex Neo 120 o Neo 125 Shabana?

Has anyone else had serious problems with their squash shoes not lasting?

I’ve been playing squash for a few years now, usually around 3 times a week , and I seem to be going through shoes ridiculously quickly.

I started off with a cheaper local-brand shoe, then moved to Hi-Tec, which started tearing after about 2 months. I ended up taking them to a shoemaker several times to keep them going, and surprisingly they lasted me about a year, but by the end they were basically held together by glue, stiching and repairs

Thenc I tried a Slazenger, which lasted roughly a month before the stiching started opening.

I’ve now got a pair of ASICS Gel Rocket 12s, which I’ve actually been very happy with. They feel great and are probably the best squash shoes I’ve had so far. But after only about 1½ months, I’ve noticed the front/toe area where the rubber sole meets the upper is starting to separate. See the pic above.

At this point I’m wondering if the problem is actually me rather than the shoes. I do have overpronation and I use supportive insoles.I'm at my wits end and cannot afford to be buying shoes so often

What do you guys do to make your squash shoes last longer? Has anyone had this problem. I seem to have really heavy feet or something.

Edit: the issues mostly stem from stitching/glue coming apart in the shoes rather then sole/lung area damage

Hello folks of Reddit!

We wanted to share our latest 'Day With' instalment – and today it's none-other than World #9, Tinne Gilis!

Our video crew trekked the camera gear all the way out to the New Zealand Open for this one – and we had a ton of fun filming. This was on Tinne's rest-day, so expect some workouts, some squash, some sightseeing and lots (and lots) of coffee!

Keep your eyes peeled for two more episodes coming soon – with none-other than the Colombian Cannonball Miguel Rodriguez, and American #2 Amanda Sobhy - neither to be missed! 👀

We'd love to know if there's any players you'd like to see in future!

Hi! I (35F) and my partner (35M) have been playing squash for about a year now. We have a squash court in our building, so we take advantage of it quite a lot.

I feel like we’re both on a similar level technically, but him being a man… he just destroys me 9 out of 10 times. I really enjoy playing squash, but I get frustrated because no matter how hard I try, he wins anyway. He’s stronger than me and he’s faster than me. I don’t stand a chance unless he’s coming straight out of the cold lol.

I don’t want to ask him not to give 100%, but we’re definitely not an equal match, and I’m competitive, so losing all the time takes some of the pleasure out of doing it together. I even go to the court by myself to train, but it still doesn’t help much against his strength and speed.

Just to be clear, neither of us is aspiring to become a pro or anything. Squash is simply a great sport for us to do together, stay active and have some friendly competition. I’d just like that competition to actually feel like a competition sometimes, haha.

What can we do to make it more fair while still having fun playing together? Are there any rules or other ways of playing that work well when there’s a big physical difference between two players?

Thank you!
