Adidas Squash Shoes

Updated 21 Comments

Adidas squash shoes have been quite popular among professionals as well as club players over the years, although now in 2018 they are not as popular as they used to be. You’ll still see pro players using Adidas but often they are using older models like the Adidas Stabil 11 that they’ve stocked up on.

Adidas actually do not make a squash-specific shoe. They make handball and volleyball shoes, which are appropriate for the squash court.

The most common shoes for squash (in my opinion) are: Stabil | Court Stabil | Essence

These others are also non-marking court shoes and can be used on the squash court, I just don’t see them as often: Counterblast Bounce | Crazyflight X | Crazyflight Bounce | Crazyflight Team | Counterblast Exadic | Ligra | Volley Response Boost | Volley Team

Adidas Stabil

These are one of the top-end Adidas squash shoes. Usually that means these have the most cushioning, but are the most expensive.

The Adidas Stabil X is the latest edition of Adidas’s top-end shoe.

2018 versions:

2017 versions:

The Adidas Stabil Bounce came out in 2018 and I haven’t seen any squash players using them but they look promising based on the photo:

Adidas Court Stabil

This is a mid-range shoe from Adidas — a little less cushioning, a little lighter, and a little less expensive than the Adipower Stabil.

Spotted in 2017, a new version called simply Adidas Court Stabil:

The 2016 version was the Adidas Court Stabil 13:

Adidas Essence

The Adidas Essence is the least expensive shoe in the Adidas range. Least cushioning, but also the lightest shoe in the range.

This is a high-end court shoe from Adidas.

The 2017 models are called the Adidas Crazyflight X:

      Adidas Stabil X : Mid-Cut, for Wide feet, Full upper Mesh, extra cushioning, side bracing stripes holding the shoe and i think this is the best model in market right now.

      Adidas Stabil Bounce : short-cut, almost same specs as the Stabil X model, but back side is slightly different with no bracing stripes in the mid. i believe this is a light version of Stabil X

      Adidas Counterblast : Mid-Cut, for slim feet, not breatable like the stabil x model, Ultra light (made for quick feet), less cushioning than the Stabil x with less padding. looks semi arch shoe from the pictures.

    I like the counterblast 7 shoes softer on the toes compared to the stabil 11

    no issues with blisters or slipping

        Pretty decent pair of shoes. Coming from the Adidas Stabil 10.1 this certainly not in the same class. But if you need an affordable pair I think you won’t go wrong with this.
