Badminton clothing options are relatively a lot easier. But not just any sweatshirt qualifies to be a badminton clothing. There are still some principles when choosing. Do not choose cotton clothes, because cotton clothes, although absorb sweat, but the ability is limited, and is not easy to evaporate, with the absorption of sweat, self-weight will increase, to the end will be attached to the body, very uncomfortable. Do not choose polyester cotton clothes in the summer, polyester cotton clothes, although a lot more comfortable than cotton, but the hot weather will still appear with cotton clothing.

Same result. In winter, if you are not in a very warm area, choosing polyester-cotton garments will improve the warmth. Don’t choose clothes that fit too snugly. Clothing that fits too snugly has the potential to restrict a player’s range of motion and will be less comfortable when playing. Go for lightweight clothing. Not every piece of clothing will be as lightweight as the well-known brands of badminton clothing. When playing badminton, it is better to wear special badminton brand clothing or clothing developed for the characteristics of badminton.YONEX clothing has a heating and cooling function. Summer and winter can provide a feeling of 3 degrees lower and 3 degrees higher respectively, which is a fine product of badminton clothing. Choose sports shorts with high elasticity, because badminton often requires players to move with stirrup stride, an elastic sports shorts can make the action more stretch without worrying about posing any harm to the clothing.

A brief description of the characteristics of badminton clothing:
YONEX:YONEX brand clothing is the most photographed. Its characteristics are also more obvious. The materials are roughly divided into two categories, special functional fibres and ordinary functional fibres.

Ordinary functional fibres are the common YONEX 100% polyester (polyster) products. A special note here is that there are many smuggled waterborne YONEX garments, or counterfeit YONEX garments, that are polyester + cotton. This type of clothing is far worse than genuine licensed products in terms of drainage and the ability to evaporate sweat. When you wear them in hotter weather and sweat more, the clothes will stick to your body because of the cotton content. It is very uncomfortable. SHBC does not recommend wearing such garments on the court, but if you really don’t want to spend a lot of money on YONEX branded garments, there is also KASON garments available, which are also available in 100% polyester, providing a lower price while guaranteeing the performance that badminton garments should have. performance that it deserves.

Special functional fibres refer to YY’s HEAT CAPSULE and VERY COOL fibres. These two materials are also 100% polyester, but the materials used are different from ordinary YONEX garments. VERY COOL garments are usually marked with VERY COOL at the back of the collar underneath the hangtag, which is more recognisable. It should be noted that the SP version of the clothes use a marking called TRUE COOL, TRUE COOL marking is similar to VERY COOL, but the so-called TRUE COOL is 100% cotton production, this kind of clothing is obviously not worth buying at all. And cotton products are easy to wrinkle, put in the ball bag squeeze after wearing will be more difficult to see.

VERY COOL and HEAT CAPSULE can provide the body surface feeling of three degrees Celsius higher or lower, and it is very comfortable to play in the appropriate season wearing the products with the corresponding characteristics. Because of its special function, the price is much more expensive than normal products. It is about 1.5-2 times the price of ordinary functional fibre clothing, but it is still very popular because of its outstanding comfort.

Although VICTOR and KASON are not as famous as YONEX, their quality is good. Especially VICTOR’s clothing, the 06 design is very innovative, and the colour is very pleasing to the eye. It is also made of sweat-wicking and quick-drying fabrics, so if you are not looking for a brand name, you can wear it comfortably.

There are other such as BONNY (Polly) silver fibre, bamboo charcoal fibre is also very good clothes, just slightly lack of design strength, if you can buy the preferred style, is also a very good choice.
