   Anyone have the S Line shoe (2018/2019 or even the new 2019/2020 model) that can put it up on the scale and give it’s weight in ounces/grams? I’ve heard mixed reviews on the S line; some people complain about durability, while others who may be a little easier on their shoes had no durability issues other than reasonable expected wear and tear really love these shoes all around.

   Thanks in advance for any input!

       Thanks for the comments Vagos! I’ve used wide variety from Adidas, to Salming Kobra 2 to currently Asics. My current choice is Asics, have great feel and support, the weight for my current shoe is 12.8oz (converts to roughly ~362 grams), so seeing if there are any other options out there for great support and comfort still while shaving some weight off. I am liking the looks of the new S Line coming out, I think I will give them a try.
       Cheers,

           My US size is 10.5 in my Asics shoes weighing at 12.8oz. So I would get the Euro 45/UK 10/US 11 sizing in the S Line

   I have had Eye Sline shoes for about 6 months now…..have played about 3 times a week in them since then. Firstly I got size 12US instead of my standard Size 11 that i wear in Salming Kobras, based on review on their size fitting small. However in hindsight, i should have gotten the actual size as the 12US is a little lose. I do suspect that 11US will be a little tight. Ideally 11.5US would have been perfect but Eye doesnt make half sizes.

   Secondly, although the shoes are low profile and have great stability and grip, their quality is quite wanting. I havent had any shoes(salming, prince, dunlop) ever wear down this fast. In my case, the left shoe tow rubber has started breaking apart, and at other spots, u can feel that the toe rubber has worn out to quite an extent and will break open any day. Eye seriously needs to work on durability. I have had Salming Kobras for a year now and they are still playing without any issues.

   I am not sure if it is permanent or not, according to squash gear it is a limited edition.

   The shoes are very stylish and look good on anyone, BUT they are very expensive when you get to notice that they are too heavy ,and also very flat on the sole (not cushiones at all,even if the appearance makes you think they have cushion) not to mention that they don`t make the shoes in 27.5 cms ,so you have to buy either the 27 cms or the 28 cms, which will lead you to injuries and feet pain in the period of a week. for that price you can get Adidas indoors or even better

   Can anyone provide an up to date review on these shoes as I’m looking at possibly buying a pair.

   These are very cool looking shoes, and the materials are great. Decently breathable and cushioned. My only problem is that they’re too heavy. I would expect very high support and cushion from a shoe this heavy, but it’s a bit lackluster. That combined with the price makes it hard for me to recommend these shoes over other shoes from Salming and Asics. If you want a shoe like the S-Line that has looks, cushion and the nice materials, I’d just go for the Race series of shoes from Salming. I’ve tried the Race X and R9 and they’re both great.

     I completely agree with this. The only issue with the Race series that I have noticed is that they break way too quickly. The toe-guard on the inner side of the Race X will wear down within a few weeks and then the gum rubber will break down after about two months.

       Yeah, the Race X‘s durability is one of its downsides. If only it lasted longer. Because of that, the gel blast 7s (maybe the FFs, have to try them out) are my go-to shoe, but the Race X’s would be if I had an unlimited supply of them.

       The Salming Hawk seems like a great alternative to both the Race X and the S-Line. I have to try them out too.

    I bought a pair of Eye shoes (the light blue model) in March, and I have to say that I disagree with JLB regarding their durability; even more if compared to the Salmings.
    Since I own them, I’ve used them the same amount of times as my Kobras (which I have since October), and while these are still in perfect shape, the Eyes have completely torn apart in the toe areas; specially the left shoe, where my sock is now completely exposed.
    However, I was very happy with the comfortability and performance of the Eye shoes (at the same level as the Kobra or the R1, and above all the Adidas models I used to wear), although I’m not even thinking of replacing them with another pair: their price is too high for a 6 month life.

    Do Eyeshoes make Squash shoes in women’s sizes?

    If so, where can they be purchased in Canada (Nova Scotia specifically)?

    Thanks

    Any thoughts on their sizing though? I wear a US 9.5 and it seems like they skip from 9 to 10 (because of EU sizing). Suggestion?

        These are nice shoes but the sizing is messed up. basically i usually wear 43.5-44 but these I wear 45- 28 cm.

        The sizing on their official site is wrong so watch out for that. Here you ll find the correct sizing:

        Otherwise the shoes are ok. They look really nice, but comparing with any Asics shoes the durability is far worse.

          I wear a size 10UK/11US/29cm in Salming Kobras. Does that mean I should go up a full size in Sye S line? That would make it 11UK/12US.

    These new Eye shoes look very familiar.. very familiar indeed. Almost like…. Asics shoes.

    Asics Gel soles are quite distinctive, with (1) the circle at the ball of the foot and the lines leading away from it and (2) the plastic support at the shank, between the heel and the toe.

    Even the outsole looks like Asics.

    Eye Rackets is a 100% squash brand, so all their products are developed thinking about their use specifically in our sport. All their efforts are focussed on squash, and we can perceive that feeling in their products. I´m waiting for the new 120 X.Lite Control, and if their shoes are good, when my Asics Fireblast break down, probably I´ll buy these beautiful shoes. The desing looks quite good, waiting for your review Pierre!!
