TOKYO, Japan — Yonex is honored to announce the global launch of Grpht Thrttl (Graphite Throttle) on October 24, 2025. The new “Grpht Thrttl” structure in Yonex shoes brings together graphite technology and advanced cushioning, blending expertise from racquet and snowboard development with more than 25 years of POWER CUSHION innovation.

Grpht Thrttl is both a breakthrough technology and the first flagship concept shoe created for people to experience it directly. This innovation channels energy to key areas of the sole to deliver greater return, stability, and comfort, seamlessly bridging the worlds of sport and everyday life.

A Defining Moment for Yonex Footwear

This model represents a turning point in Yonex footwear DNA. It is not just another launch, but a redefinition of how Yonex envisions shoes. It is also the foundation for all future Yonex footwear development.

Driven by Innovation

The Grpht Thrttl structure is designed to operate like a throttle, allowing you to regulate power with ease. At its core are two Yonex-exclusive innovations that redefine how energy flows.

• POWER CUSHION REV: the most responsive cushioning Yonex has ever developed, delivering a 37% increase in shock absorption and 42% greater repulsion than previous lightweight midsoles, without adding weight. The result is plush comfort that transforms impact into forward motion.
• POWER GRAPHITE: A carbon plate integrated with the cushion enhancing lateral stability and forward propulsion, while flexing optimally for badminton and tennis movements, and everyday walking.

This key innovation debuts here and will be carried forward into future competition models that adopt the same breakthrough construction.

For Active Lives On and Off the Court

The Grpht Thrttl concept shoe is made for active lifestyles, from tennis and badminton players to anyone seeking versatile comfort. Every design element balances performance and sustainability, with an engineered mesh upper for breathability, a low-rebound insole for personalized comfort, and a high-cut silhouette inspired by Yonex heritage. All mesh and laces are made from recycled polyester. Lightweight for everyday wear and light on-court play.

The Grpht Throttl is a unisex concept shoe featuring Yonex's latest footwear innovations derived from expertise in crafting the world's best tennis and badminton racquets.

• Heritage and innovation: Blue and Green details on each shoe act as a nod to the Yonex Brand.
• Heel-to-toe comfort: Full-length Power Cushion Rev and Power Graphite combine for explosive comfort without sacrificing control, providing players with precise propulsion.
• Performance in each step: As a concept shoe, the Grpht Thrttl pushes the boundaries of what a Yonex shoe can be.
• Power Cushion Rev: Our most explosive cushion ever is an immediate sensation felt from the very first step. Running full length from heel to toe, Power Cushion Rev sandwiches the carbon graphite shank.
• Power Graphite: Decades of experience and expertise crafting the world's best tennis and badminton racquets. Exposed wing design throttles the explosiveness of Power Cushion Rev.

Lightweight Upper: Upper is made of light and breathable engineered mesh with strategic support in key areas prone to wear in badminton and tennis. 

The Yonex philosophy: Every Yonex product is a proof point of our philosophy. Now included as a detail in the medial heels of the Grpht Thrttl.

Power Graphite: Details shine through the midsole.
