Secure, comfortable fit
Love these shoes. The key for me was finding a shoe that would really lock in my foot and keep me from getting blisters. These have that inner collar/liner that adds an extra level of hold to your foot, and they’re surprisingly easy to put on (I’ve had problems with other brands that have tried this concept). My foot feels super secure.Other pros:- they are very stable. I don’t feel like I’m going to roll an ankle- comfortable. Plenty of padding. Wide enough for my foot. Follows the natural contours of a foot to let your toes splay out and not be cramped.- great lacing. I like how the tongue is padded near the top of your ankle so the laces don’t dig into your foot- good construction. Seems like really high quality materials of leather and sole rubber.- Good amount of mesh for breathability- quick break in. Was comfortable on the first wear, but then after 2 sessions they are even softer around my feet

Great heel lockdown
Probably one of the best heel lock I've experienced. Feels light and offers great support (and speed). No heel slippage at all. The uppers are very comfortable, soft and plush, so it molds to your feet quite well (as opposed to others that offer harder/stiffer more resistant TPU). However, unless you drag excessively this is fine. Less of a slider as the outsole tends to grip more and feels.Minuses - outsole wears faster than most, and front bottoms out faster too.

No More Heal Pain
Best tennis/pickleball sneaker I’ve worn. (and I’ve worn 23 different types of sneakers in the last 2 years) Wide toe box for my wide foot, extremely comfortable and very supportive. Barely any break in time needed.Getting black ones this weekend. Weight of sneaker is light and stability is strong. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

Best Discontinued Shoe
Best tennis shoes I've owned thus far. A little pricey but super comfortable, rugged, low-to-the-ground-feel, and garnered a ton of compliments on looks. Wish I would have known about and taken advantage of the 6 month warranty, though. I never registered my pair, but I sure did wear through the soles in under 6 months so there's a chance I could have gotten new ones on the house. Womp, womp.

Very comfortable
Singles player. I like this shoe better than the asics ff2’s I’ve been using, mainly because the Mizuno soles are softer, and the forefoot upper has more give so it accommodates my wide foot better. The Mizunos feel lighter than the ff2’s but maybe a smidge slower due to the squishier sole. Overall, better for my knees and foot pain and I didn’t notice a difference in my play so I’m sticking with the Mizunos.

Best Pickleball Shoes (IMO)
I've had these shoes for over 2 months now and I can literally hands down say that they are the best ones that I have tried thus far. I have tried many other popular brands, and these shoes are my favorite out of them all. They're very comfortable, responsive, durable, lightweight and nice looking. I am sold and will stick with Mizuno brand shoes for a while as they seem to have the best product out there as far as tennis/pickleball shoes.Give these a shot and I promise that you will not regret your decision.

Comfy, Stable, Sharp Sneaks
I use these for pickleball, and plan to use them when I'm on the tennis court as well. Straight out of the box they are comfortable, and for me required no break-in period. No hot spots on my foot, and after 4.5 hrs of play in the last 3 days, my feet feel remarkably fresh. Very happy with their comfort, and I have seen no drop in agility or traction vs my other pair bearing the swoosh.
