These are the only tennis shoes that I buy. I have played tennis 3-4 times a week for over 40 years. As I have gotten older they are now the only shoes that I know will fit me comfortably right out of the box. New Balance is the only tennis shoes that come in a variety of wide sizes. Isn't most of the population entering their later years? I know that a lot of them now have wide feet. Why is it so hard to find shoes that way?

Amazing shoe. I have gone through this shoe for the last 8 yrs. They have tweaked and changed the model no. over years but it fits well with good ankle support. I love them.
Highly recommend.

I always wear this shoe, but it's going out of stock. I usually purchase it for much less money, but I needed a pair immediately. The Amazon price was $40 more than usual.

First purchase of this shoe on line. I typically buy them at brickand morter stores. I received the usual good quality at a betterprice.

I play squash at least once every week. These shoes perform well and are esthetically nice :-).
Before I used to play with regular tennis shoes, but due to the swift nature of the game, I often ended up with blisters on my feet, until I switched to courts shoes like these ones.

Yo juego Squash frecuentemente. Estos tenis tienen buena traccion y son esteticamente aceptables :-).
Antes jugaba squash con cualquier tenis y continuamente terminaba con ampollas en los pies debido a los rapidos cambios de direccion/velocidad en el juego. Ahora que uso tenis para duela, como este modelo de New Balance, el problema ha desaparecido.

It is possibly unfair to rate this shoe when they sent me the wrong size....but I did keep it and seems to work anyway. I like the comfort and weight. I have played 4 or 5 times wearing them and they feel good and seem to be wearing well.

If you're near 200 pounds or over, I'd avoid these shoes for tennis. I came from Prince/KSwiss shoes and bought these impulsively, I'm sorry I did. I knew by the 2nd ball I ran after these were going to be unsuitable for tennis. They are narrow and minimal, there's just not the support there. If you're a 150 lb. male, then maybe. Otherwise, go for a more substantial shoe.
