 Topic: Stiga Instinct ShoePosted: 09/15/2014 at 8:57am |
|
Got these awesome shoes finally after a few months of waiting! I swear I would have mistaken this for a pair of Mizuno shoes due to the design and quality.
Size: 43 Weight: 265 grams per shoe (approx.) The Instinct Shoes are way different from their previous line of shoes. I suspect this shoe comes from different factory. The soles are soft and very much more comfortable compared to the previous Pro Swede model. Almost the larger part of the shoe is covered with a nylon mesh. It doesn't feel hot and comfortable. This is a first from Stiga in terms of shoes. They have not produced this kind of shoes up until this one which is very good. The design is not too flashy but it really catches attention. The soles are of good design and very grippy on a ceramic tile floor which where I usually play and coach. I felt really comfortable on heavy footwork drills especially on the lateral movements.  Shining shivering splendid!         I don't know if other Stiga distributors has this now but I think www.pingpongonline.com will soon have these in 2-3 weeks. |

Must be me, but Stiga shoes look cheap and chunky to me.
These and the older blue and yellow ones aswell. No idea how you are able to compare the design to Mizunos!? |

Yogi_Bear have you played with these shoes something more? How are they holding up? My friend have been playing with the Instinct shoe for a while now and he is really happy with it. I thinking about ordering a pair but would be nice with some more opinions about this awesome looking shoe!

I have an unused pair, size 11 US (but would fit someone who is size 10 1/2 better and that's why I am selling them). They were on my feet for all of about 15 seconds while I decided I need a half size larger. I think they are good shoes.
They are for sale to a good home, $60 inside the US, that includes shipping. PM me. |

Yeah the Mizuno is a great shoe but I think the Instinct is a really good alternative. I would guess many of the pros will start using the Instinct.
