    Good shoes at a great price!
  

*by K***N on Reviewed in the United States on October 10, 2019*

I got these tennis shoes because I wanted to start playing pickleball and wanted to have the right footwear. These are my first pair of actual tennis shoes, so I don't have much to compare them too. I think they are great so far. They seem to have a few negative reviews but I haven't noticed any of those issues yet. They fit a little tight but from what I read tennis shoes are supposed to fit that way. The outsoles seem pretty durable, so far, after 3 weeks of use. I don't see any signs of wear at all. They are pretty comfortable and provide a good level of support. The only negative I have is that my heels don't always feel super locked in, even when tied as tight as possible. Overall I think these shoes are great and you can find these for pretty cheap. So, if you're looking for your first pair of tennis shoes, or don't want to spend too much on a pair I'd say these would be a good choice.

    These shoes are stable
  

*by D***D on Reviewed in the United States on September 18, 2019*

I bought these for playing Pickleball after rolling my ankles a few times while using running shoes. These are much more stable than running shoes as you'd imagine.They weren't very comfortable out of the box. They had very little arch support and thin insoles. I replaced them with a knee support insole from Dr. Scholl's and they are great now. Might want to go half a size up knowing you'll need an insole, I had already gone up due to other reviews so it worked out well.

    Great Shoe
  

*by J***S on Reviewed in the United States on October 26, 2019*

The reviews are correct that the size runs small.  I ordered 1/2 size larger and the next width wider and the shoes fit perfectly.  The shoes are also very light but with very good support.  The low tread wear is amazing.  I have tried many brands over the last two years and I wear the tread out in about 4 weeks ( I play 15 hours of Pickleball a week on hard courts).  I have had these shoes about 4 weeks and there is hardly any wear.  These are by far the best shoes I have found and the price is great. I just hope  they keep making them.
