Good tennis shoe.
Good shoe. Off-white (cream) color not exactly what I wanted - wanted something more white. Nevertheless, they are comfortable, rugged, and a good fit.

Fila has best value for shoes
I have been wearing Fila sneakers for past 4 years. I see no need to pay for higher priced luxury brands like Nikes, Adidas, Armor. The quality is on par with more expensive brands. This sneaker is very comfortable. I wear 10.5 and the size on this was on par with my size.

Best looking tennis shoe at the courts.
I get lots of compliments on these shoes. They look fantastic. Not all the comfortable because there's not much padding. They're not uncomfortable, but there are more comfortable shoes to choose from. But they are fast on the court because they're low to the ground and lightweight. I usually have to buy New Balance because I have wide feet. These shoes fit my wide feet just fine. I also like the 6 month guarantee on the soles. I will look at Fila shoes each season when it's time to buy new shoes.

Affordable quality tennis shoe
Very good shoe that performs well over all for me. I have a 3E width which no one makes. New Balance 2E are too narrow and their 4E are too wide. I can make these work by cramming a tennis ball inside to help stretch them when new. They do have a low ride on court. I take the factory insole out and put in my custom orthotic. I am 52 and play doubles 4 - 5 days a week and I have worn one of the outsoles down in a little more than 2 months. I do recommend them for the 6th month outsole guarantee alone, plus they look sharp.

Decent court shoe, but could use some improvements for the price.
I have a *really* difficult time finding court shoes that fit me - at all. My feet are almost a half size different, and I'm a 12, so many times the right shoe fits just right, and the left is too tight, and typically - no 12 1/2, just 13, which are... too BIG! Plus I have high arches and my feet are on the wider side. These did fit me so I kept them and gave them a shot for playing higher level pickleball. For the price, these could use some improvements, although your mileage may vary... First, these appear like they would be rather breathable, but they are not - at all. The mesh looking vents in the upper have a rather thick fabric inner "sock" layer that does not breath. I live in a warm climate, and after just a couple games, my feet start to feel swampy already. After more games, they feel pretty gross, and when your foot is damp, that's when you can get blisters, or have callouses peel off. Second, that same inner sock has already started to become detached at the back of one of my heel pockets, so one heel kinda slips around a bit more than the other, and this was only after a few days of playing. Third, the mid-sole (cushion between the outer rubber and the in-sole) is not very forgiving. It's rather hard, so all your cushion is only coming from the insole. In a court shoe that's not enough, and what happens is your big toe will wear through the insole rather quickly if you play hard. Personally, I have pretty high arches, so I always have to put a higher grade insoles in my court shoes, and I had to with these. The stock insole is pretty cheap and pretty flat. So if you live in a colder climate, and play more casually, these shoes might be just fine for you. Or even great. If you have a wider foot, these probably won't pinch on the side, unless you've got hobbit feet or something.What do I like?? Well, like I said the width is good and they do fit me, so there's that! I do like the outer design, with the rubber-y wrap. It feels very durable, and they have so far held up pretty well with my lateral foot-dragging while dinking in pickleball. I typically wear a hole in the side pretty quick if there's not a good shield there. The outer soles have great traction. They move well on hard outdoor courts, slide just enough and don't squeak too much. I can't speak to the outer sole durability as I've only had them a few weeks, but so far, not a ton of wear. I'll see how soon I have a hole under my big toe. A big thing: I wear black, and I'm *really* not into all these day-glow sporty neon colors. I like hard rock, and black t-shirts. I appreciate a court shoe that doesn't look like a shoe a clown would wear on the moon, which is what 95% of athletic & court shoes look like these days. I like an under-stated plain black shoe, and this is one. I just wish some design & construction elements were done better. If they were, I'd buy 10 pairs of these. I haven't found that shoe yet...All the best!
