Category Performance Ratings
9.5
Traction
Translucent rubber with aggressive traction pattern. Excellent grip on clean courts, minimal dust pickup and long lasting bite.
9.0
Cushion
Plush, bouncy foam midsole with pronounced heel cushioning. Provides impact protection and good court feel while remaining lively.
5.5
Materials
Thin synthetic upper materials that feel cheap in hand. Functional for play but durability and perceived quality are low.
6.5
Support
Soft midsole and loose upper with no outrigger. Side to side movement and limited lateral stability under quick cuts.
6.5
Fit
Slightly long and slightly narrow fit with sloppy toe box and some bunching. Lockdown and containment are weak.
75%
Outdoor
Hard, durable rubber outsole that holds up well outdoors. Upper materials likely wear faster with heavy outdoor play.
small
large
Sizing
Reports vary between true to size and slightly long. Try on if between sizes or consider a half size if unsure.
narrow
wide
Width
Fits slightly narrow. Best for narrow to regular feet. Wide footers may feel constricted in the forefoot.

Even for only $90, I wouldn't recommend this shoe. The materials are absolute trash and there are just too many stability and containment issues.

Outstanding traction and durability. I've played in these for 2 years in outdoor courts and the traction pattern is still not completely worn out.

The translucent rubber works really well on clean courts and the dust pickup on dirty courts isn't bad either.

I didn't feel stable laterally because of the lack of an outrigger and the very soft cushioning.

The materials don't offer enough containment and I had some side-to-side movement on the footbed.

The fit is just super sloppy, there is a lot of dead space in the toe box area and the materials don't conform to your feet at all.

The rubber is very durable and will work outdoors for a long time, the upper materials probably won't last that long.
