Best tennis shoe ever made
Very light weight yet still supportive. Great for speedy high acceleration/deceleration. Tends toward mediumish narrow-medium width, which would only be a problem for someone already a little tight in a standard medium width shoe. Unfortunately discontinued by asics, and none of the three replacement "FF" models compare to this perfect shoe. The shoes have very good durability for a high-gripping shoe. Any tennis shoe with better grip will wear out significantly faster, and any shoe with greater durability will not offer such amazing grip. If you prefer a hard-court sliding shoe, then there are better options, but not if grip is your thing.

Super for Pickleball!
Awesome shoes for Pickleball! Great lateral stability. My feet get hot and these give plenty of venting while still maintaining the integrity of the shoes. Arch support is good, and there is a noticeable collar keeping the heel down. Gel in forefoot and heel is all-day comfortable. I play singles and these are great for fast cuts or sudden charges to the kitchen after a drop shot. Great shoes!

Good product and is usually true to the correct fitting for size.
There has been a shortage of ASICS products and made it difficult this time. If you purchase product and like the style, it is recommended you purchase another pair immediately. Reportedly manufacturer will change there styles every six months and it is frustrating to me.

My third pair, glad they are still available
I love these shoes, fit me perfectly. Light weight, no break-in, flexible, comfortable good traction and decent wear. I play 4-7 times a week for 1-2 hours per session. My Head shoes get better mileage but I like these better because they are lighter and cheaper. My foot is a little wide but the foot bed has plenty of room and length was perfect. Price is fair in today's market.

Excellent traction and cushioning on outside hard court surfaces.
I bought these for pickleball play on outside asphalt hard courts, both on dedicated pickleball courts and on temporary set-ups on older, rougher, tennis courts. Since I have some foot issues, I needed a shoe that would provide high quality cushioning and would flex appropriately. These are working out very well, but I will note they DO require some breaking in. They're not "house slippers" and might feel overly stiff the first handful of hours of play. After that, however, they're great.

Excellent shoe for pickle ball
I had been using a pair of running shoes for pickle ball. I play every day and my feet were hurting. A friend recommended Asics.Sizing is something I am always skeptical about when buying apparel online. I ordered my size and they fit very well.I've been playing with them for several weeks. Foot pain went away. Very comfortable shoes.

A little snug, but loosen up with use.
Seem to be fine for intended use ( pickleball). Not as comfortable as other Asics I have worn, but these are designed for stability on court so expected a little loss of cushioning. They do the job, and will probably re-order when these wear out.
