The Yonex Graphite Throttle (Grpht Thrttl) Concept Shoe is an all-new Yonex court shoe focused on energy return, stability and comfort, blending racket sports technology with everyday, active-lifestyle wear. Yonex positions it as a turning point in its footwear design and the foundation for its future high-performance models. This unique concept shoe is very limited in numbers – a way to get the feel of Yonex’s new technology before anyone else.
Key Features
- Power Cushion REV – Yonex’s most responsive cushioning yet, with a 37% improvement in shock absorption and 42% more repulsion than previous lightweight midsole designs. Heel-to-toe, it combines plush comfort with explosive rebound.
- Power Graphite plate – a carbon-infused plate in the midsole/outsole that flexes progressively for lateral stability and forward propulsion.
- Graphite-Throttle structure – engineered to channel energy precisely, like controlling speed with a throttle, for responsiveness in every step.
- Lightweight engineered mesh upper – light, supportive and breathable, reinforced in high-wear zones for durability and airflow.
- Yonex philosophy detailing – subtle brand elements built into the shoe; a classic reimagining of an “old school” shoe reflecting Yonex’s history, with subtle blue and green on either shoe as a nod to the Yonex brand.
- Eco-friendly design – mesh and laces use recycled polyester without compromising performance.
