Mizuno are the best table tennis trainers I have had. Be careful though, as those on eBay tend to be fakes.

Mizuno shoes are quite recent arnt they?

Don't think so. Huge in Asia. I've got the Mizuno Wave Medal.

I bought another 2 pairs last week on eBay from a UK based seller. They were fake. I've managed to get my money back. I took some photos and will be putting them online so other people don't get scammed.

Ironically, those fakes are probably the same quality or close to it as the real ones in most cases. The reason is because companies like Mizuno go into countries like China, find a company that can produce cheaply their clothes and shoes. Well those companies that make the fakes, do basically the same thing. They sometimes even use the exact same factory, or if not, some factory that is exactly the same, they use the same materials, same design, but just appeal to a different portion of the population, those who want the stuff, but aren't willing to pay the brand price that Mizuno charges for them.

The quality of these trainers were far from the quality of the genuine item. You could visibly see the quality of the materials used and finish was far from equal. Also, the detailing was sub-par and looked cheap.

I bought them from eBay of a Chinese guy based in the UK. He claimed there are two versions, a Japanese version and a Chinese version. Having bought originals (which were made in China), this simply didn't wash. I'm going to publish the photos as soon as I get chance.
