These are called the Babolat Shadow Tour. They’re made as a badminton shoe, but they have non-marking soles.
Here are the models I’ve seen in 2023:

Hi Pierre,
I bougth the ‘Estate Blue / White’ – 2020/2021, size 8.5, (PDHSports – GB) in 2021 and they fit as a glove. Powered by Michelin (France). So you’ve got Formula 1 soles. But above all … hip & happening ….and no squashshoes for me.
Damping on the heel is perfect, never a slide in a tred (other than in the video), but the one and only reason I only used them – after playing games – for giving lessons is …. the heel is somewhat to high.
Explanation: high on heel is oké for getting a quick(-er) manouvre forwards. But backwards … is another story. It didn’t felt well. I had to put to much pressure on toes and later on my “Musculus tibialis anterior” told me … ‘i’ve got a problem.
So, to keep a long story short … Babolat, when interested …. I look forward for contact for one of the new lines you will bring …. but squashshoes need to be more flatter in the heel.
I like these stubburn French … working on a market where – in squashshoes – are only 2 labels really working on the human extremeties (legs).

Bought these 3 weeks ago. A bit bulky. Will try to get used to wearing them.
