Nostradamus, there is o Eclipsion shoe listed on the website. But the shoes Stan is wearing is not on the site either. So he may be right. Either way we are not finding any info on Stans current shoe.

It's gonna come in fluoro yellow and orange similar to his Australian Open shoe this year but a little more red, the whole shoe is just that one color.

If you guys could find any information on it then you wouldn't need to listen to me, but as it is now, you have nothing to go by but my words so make of it what you will

Will it be lighter than Powercushion Pro ? because that shoe has good cushioning but was just too Heavy for me......

Thanks for the details sixone90! Sounds like you have spoken to Yonex Japan on the phone :) Hopefully we will see these released online soon. Did you manage to get any details from Yonex about a release date?

There will be some advertisement somewhere before the Release. and that Ad will have the release date. I just hope this one is little more light than the previous powercushion pro. if this shoe is 13.8-14.2 OZ, I will buy this but if more, then I am not buying.

Because they always show on their website before the release date

Well it's too far before the release date. It should be released around January in time for Australian Open. Release dates may vary depending on where in the world you are

yea but we can search the internet in the world. we can find anything anywhere in the world today, right ?
 
Yonex power Cush pro = Most comfortable shoes I've used. Just bought another pair to replace the gel res I was using past 6 months. Gel res have also been good but a little bit tighter fit and I think they lasted a little longer. The fit of the Yonex was perfect.

Haven't seen them on Rakutan yet. That was where I got my FusionRevs last year before they were released in US.

Love the new color. But hate to say it looks like they did not increase the ventilation at all. Also they look like they might be a tad heavier than the power cushion pros. I hope not. Time will tell. Either way I am sure they will be comfortable. And that is number one for me.

Yea, if they are actually heavier,, I am not buying it, and that would be sad,, indeed. I may just have to buy the Aerus shoes which will be very light and well ventilated with same great Powercushion.

Love the Power Cushion Pro...only shoe I can wear that doesn't aggravate my achilles tendinitis. My only small complaint would be the weight. I'm overdue for a new pair, and I've been trying to hold off until the new version is released. I sent an email to Yonex USA inquiring when they would be hitting stores, and they sent me the below reply.


Thank you for your email dated December 14th, 2015and thank you for your interest in YONEX equipment. This email is in response to your inquiry regarding when the new tennis shoes will be released.

We do not have a specific date on when we will have the new power cushion shoes but the rough estimate on when they will be launched is late January to early February.

Please do not hesitate to contact us if you require further assistance.

All the best,
YONEX USA Support Team

I got a Good news for Everyone that is interested in new Stan Wawrinka Eclipsion shoes.............They are pretty Light....

size 8.5 has been measured and is at 380g per shoe. ( this is Without the Box and any wrapper/packaging.

380 Gm is equal to only 13.4 OZ. That is pretty light weight for top of the line tennis shoes from Yonex.

WHAT ???????????????? Where did you Get that ???????????? I can get a pair from overseas in black but they only have pair that is 1/2 size bigger than what I need.......... Should I still buy one from England and see what it is like ? Or should I wait til late January which I think is the projected release date...

Also I think Weight of the shoes is slightly Lighter than power cushion pro. Since the Size 9 in USA size is 13.4 OZ, I figure size 10.5 would be little bit heavier.... since the powercushion Pro in size 10.5 was 14.9 oz.

I guess I envy people who can choose tennis shoes based on looks. I try to find tennis shoes that fit and have the characteristics I like. Looks are a far secondary consideration.

Has anyone tried the new eclipsion and have an opinion about how they fit?

Well, it is supposed to come out in late January and TW will likely carry it early Feb. that is what TW said. Do you think 1/2 size bigger makes that much difference at all ??

Nostradamus did you convert the price to US dollar? They are asking way to much for the shoe. It's $165 plus shipping.

Also after doing some research Rostradamus I have only been able to find the blk/pink shoe on that one site you posted. They claim to have it exclusively. I know for the general public it will be relased in blk/white, red/blk, and yellow/blk. So if you really want the pink you must order from the UK site.

Yes, the dollar is doing fairly well. But the Britsh Pound is still stronger. It is $165 for the shoes plus shipping. I personally love the shoes but refuse to pay that much. I will wait and get one of the other colors

@Nostradamus - have you ever done a blind test with shoe weight? Like have someone add a bit of lead or a pebble and see if you can tell the difference? Do you wear super thin socks so you are not weighted down with sweat?

Just wondering because you seem REALLY obsessed with an ounce here or there!

And to add to that....some shoes do not feel there actual weight once you are on the court playing.

Agree, that Powercushion Pro felt much much more heavier than their actual scale weight of 14.9 OZ from TW. I could not play with them ON. But old SHT 308 from Yonex was Perfect weight at 13.8 OZ, I felt very light on my feet wearing SHT 308 shoes. so I am hoping the new Eclipsion feels and weights more like the SHT308's.

Based on my scale the size 12 I have hits at 15.4 oz...........
so then what is size 10.5 USA size weight ? that is what we go by here.

US size 9 has been measured and is at 380g (13.4 OZ) per shoe. ( this is Without the Box and any wrapper/packaging.)

That is huge difference in weight from what you got. So there is that much difference in weight from Size 9 to Size 12 ????????????????? lol

^^^^^^^With some Brilliant Deductive reasoning,,,,i figure Size 10.5 would weight 14.4 OZ. Powercushion Pro weighed 14.9 OZ so it is slightly lighter but not by that much.............. Not sure if I should put up $165 to buy this early from UK. or should I just wait til Febuary when it is supposed to come to USA ??
