Light on Your Feet. Stable Under Pressure.

Premium Performance. Without the Premium Price.

Developed through NYDHI Labs, the NYDHI Ascend Regular Fit is a performance-focused badminton shoe created around the demands of fast indoor court movement. From explosive starts and sudden stops to deep lunges, lateral recovery, jumping, and landing, Ascend combines responsive movement with the cushioning and support needed for demanding play.

  • Enhanced midsole cushioning for impact absorption and lasting comfort

  • Regular Performance Fit designed for standard-width feet

  • Non-marking gum rubber outsole for indoor court use

  • Multidirectional traction pattern for badminton-specific footwork

  • Breathable mesh areas for improved airflow

  • Reinforced forefoot and heel for demanding court movement

  • Developed through NYDHI Labs with a focus on badminton performance

Lightweight Feel with Enhanced Cushioning

Ascend is designed to balance speed and comfort rather than forcing players to choose between them. Its lightweight construction provides a responsive feel during quick exchanges, while the cushioned midsole helps absorb repeated impact from jumps, lunges, split steps, and hard landings.

The cushioning is supportive rather than excessively soft, helping maintain a stable court feel during long training sessions, competitive matches, and tournament play.

Graphite Stability Plate

A built-in graphite midfoot stability plate reinforces the center of the shoe and improves torsional support. By helping resist excessive twisting during sharp lateral cuts, hard push-offs, and uneven landings, the plate creates a more controlled transition through rapid changes of direction.

Graphite provides additional rigidity without requiring a bulky support structure, helping Ascend maintain its lightweight and responsive performance feel.

Stability Core Support

Working alongside the graphite plate, the Stability Core provides additional support through the midfoot and heel. It helps create a planted platform during sudden stops, lateral movement, and demanding landings while allowing the mobility required for quick badminton footwork.

Performance Fit - Regular

The Regular Fit version is designed for players with standard-width feet who prefer a close, performance-oriented fit.

Supportive synthetic overlays help keep the foot securely positioned during rapid movement, while strategically placed breathable mesh promotes airflow without adding unnecessary bulk. A padded tongue and collar provide additional comfort around the foot and ankle during extended play.

Badminton-Specific Court Traction

Underfoot, a non-marking gum rubber outsole provides dependable grip for indoor court play. Its multidirectional traction pattern supports the movements badminton players rely on, including explosive acceleration, sudden braking, lateral pushes, front-court lunges, rotational movement, and rapid recovery steps.

Reinforced forefoot and heel areas add support in high-demand zones for the repeated movement of badminton.

Developed by NYDHI Labs

NYDHI Labs is the product development and performance -focused division behind Ascend. The shoe was developed with a clear objective: combine the cushioning, stability, traction, secure fit, and responsive movement serious badminton players look for in a performance court shoe while keeping it accessible at a competitive price.

The result is the NYDHI Ascend - a badminton shoe built around the movements and demands of the sport.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is your return policy for rackets?

Rackets can be returned within 30 days only if they are unused, unopened, and the manufacturer’s plastic wrap on the handle is fully intact. The original cover and all tags must be included.

2. Are custom-strung rackets returnable?

No. If NYDHI strings a racket at your request, it becomes a customized product and is final sale, even if unused.
