Badminton Shoes Victor A970 NitroLite A
The Victor A970 NitroLite A are the flagship badminton shoes from the Taiwanese brand Victor. Featuring NitroLite technology—a high-density nitrogen foam—they offer exceptional cushioning that protects joints on hard courts, combined with lightness and responsiveness that rivals high-end Yonex shoes.
NitroLite Technology: Victor's Secret Weapon
Where Yonex relies on Power Cushion, Victor has developed its own answer with NitroLite technology (nitrogen-infused foam). This foam incorporates nitrogen microbubbles that absorb shocks upon impact and return energy upon propulsion—exactly like Power Cushion but with increased lightness. Players transitioning from Yonex to the A970 often notice a perceptible gain in lightness during use.
Technical Specifications

A970 vs Yonex PC65: Which to Choose?
Both are excellent badminton shoes at similar price points. The choice mainly depends on your priorities:
- If you are looking for maximum, proven cushioning: Yonex PC65 — the absolute benchmark
- If you are looking for a lighter shoe with good cushioning: Victor A970 NitroLite — excellent choice
- If you have sprain issues: A970 — the VSR system offers better lateral support
