Hi-Tec squash shoes have been one of my favorite brands over my many years of playing squash. Hi-Tec has been around the squash scene for over 30 years. They focused in the early days on creating a squash-specific shoe, and this has translated into a strong position among squash players even to this day.
My well-loved pair of Hi-Tec Squash Shoes
I haven’t tried Hi-Tec shoes for a few years now, in part because I wanted to branch out in terms of my research for this site, but in part because they seem to have radically changed their shoe designs in recent years with the introduction of the Infinity Flare models.

I’ve been weaing Hi-tec classic’s for 25+ years. Be warned for some reason Hi-tec and recently changed the shape of the shoe (even though they look identical). They are narrower and much smaller in sizing now so no longer fit my wider feet. I’m buying up ‘new old stock’ off eBay!

Thanks. Sometime ago, I called the comp in Toronto that was the supplier to the various Canadian shops and was told this model was no longer being sold due to the fact it would compete with the much more expensive shoes it was bringing in.
On EBay, there are UK shops/internet shops who have them but the shipping % is almost as much as the cost of the shoes. I mite bite the bullet & order a pair from the UK. To me, it is a classic squash shoe and I have never found a good alternative. Any suggestions of a brand/model that is as good?

Is there a good source for the Hi Tech CLASSIC squash shoe. I have used for many years and do not like the heavier, stiffer models that seem to be the norm today.
I am in Canada so would prefer a vendor from Canada or USA.
Thanks.

I don’t think you’ll find a supplier easily. Best bet is the auction sites I think for some new old stock if you can find it. Happy hunting.
