Emms and Robertson reach semi in Hi-Tec shoes

Hi-Tec-sponsored badminton aces Gail Emms and Nathan Robertson helped England to their first ever Sudirman Cup medal.

A fine win from the pair, wearing 4SYS Badminton shoes which are due for release in a couple of months, paved the way for England to reach the semi-finals of the tournament for the first time.

Finishing in the last four guarantees the team a bronze medal at the very least.

However, despite Indonesia's fearsome reputation, England coach Ian Wright believes his team could go all the way to the final.

He told Chinese newspaper People's Daily: "We aren't settling for bronze. Now we want to make the final and we believe we have a real chance.

"Indonesia will start favourites but if we can get our players mentally right again and free from pressure maybe we can get a win."

England will face Malaysia in their semi-final, while China take on South Korea.

Fitness Footwear sells a range of court footwear including an extensive selection of Hi-Tec shoes.

Particularly recommended are the Sigma II, Phantom and Classic models from Hi-Tec.
