These are called the Dunlop Ultimate Tour shoes, new for the 2014-2015 season. Thanks to Joe Magor for the tip on these way back when. I am finally posting them!
Even though Dunlop hasn’t put out squash shoes previously (as far as I know), these look pretty sweet:

They have dark soles, but are most definitely appropriate court shoes.

I”ve liked these shoes, i’ve had 3 pairs already. My right ankle is a bit bigger than the left one, due to past injuries, so i usually need to make the shoes to adapt to my feet. These have adapted pretty well. Also due to that, I prefer shoes that are kind of well protected in the ankle, which play against flexibility some times, but I feel these have given me good balance for that: i feel my ankle is safe while at the same time they have been flexible enough. About durability, I play 3-4 times per week, and I can say the sole started to get damage in about 3-4 months (this is, however, affected for the double ankle support i wear). The first pair, i changed quickly. But then i’ve realized it is enough to change the sole, and I can say durability has been good, order 8 months so far, which i would say for how often i play is great (changed the sole two times already and still on going).

Thanks for the review, SuperMario. When you say you “changed the sole”, what exactly do you mean and how did you do that or have it done? Thanks again!

Highly disappointing! The hard front is a constant source of pain, to the point that any harsh movements (which there are many in squash!) means my toe keeps rubbing against it very harshly… I have literally lost half my toe nail now, as it ket getting hit and eventually it broke loose… will have to buy a new pair after only 5 weeks of having them…

Shoe felt great at first, but after 6 months of 4 to 5 days per week of racquetball play, they are completely trashed. Sides are separating from the sole and material has holes on sides. Insoles have holes in the cushioning material as well.
I have used Asics volleyball shoes in the past and they are a much better value and last a lot longer.
These are garbage. I will not be buying them again.
