Usually Robinswood..I play on two USTA teams based out of there. Pro Sports Club in Redmond to hit for lessons.

When I play outdoors to hit around, I'll play at Hazen HS or Grass Lawn Park in Redmond. I have bad luck scoring courts at Lake Boren since there are only two there and you tend to get a lot of recreational players.

Are you in the area? I'm guessing you are if you're asking.

Here I got the Adidas Triand III, air zoom vapor iv, then the breathe cage 1, then the trusty track spikes (yes I run track for the nice conditioning) then we got the newest addition my air zoom vapor tour vi ($6 then my favorite non tennis shoes, Vans slip ons true white. Then some trail shoes to run in and some crap addidS shoes. None of these are over 70$.

that was probably a bad idea posting this in the non classified part of the board and to make things worse the product is new. That is pretty ballsy of you.

hey pcmacino,

could you compare the fit between the Babolat Propulse 2, CB 1.3 and Vapor VI? I wear the PP2's in a size 12. I really want to get myself some CB's and/or Vapors, but it's hard to find a store around here to try them out. The spot I have trouble with most shoes in the toebox. I like a little room to wiggle. I hate shoes that seem to jam my little toe. I don't want an extremely wide fit, but a bit or space for my little toe. any info would help.thanks.

Sure, I wear a half size smaller in both Nikes. So in the PP2s I wear a 10 1/2 and in the Nikes I wear a 10. The CB1.3s are a little wider than than the Vapor VIs, but I wouldn't say either are a narrow shoe. I don't have narrow feet, but have no complaints with any of them in the toe box. Now the PP1s did tend to pinch me in the box (on the pinky toe side) every now and then.

Hope that helps.

Thanks. I did try both my Babolat shoes in a .5 size smaller, but then went up and that made a good difference. I'm hoping I will be able to fit in the Nike shoes. I'm heading to an Factory store later to try some on and see how they fit. It helped, just gives me a reference point. obviously everyone is different, but any little info is appreciated.

[theProdigy]

just picked these up today for $59 at the nikefactory store. they're actually a sample pair. no difference to the actual ones at all, just some fancy insoles.


and also picked these up recently. the kobe V's. not for tennis but IMO one of the best shoes ever made.

Just got my 2.3's!

They fit about the same as the 1.3's, maybe a little snugger, and they are NOTICEABLY lighter.

[a-naik.1]

They look really sweet in the shadow...a little bit of a smokey look...so go 1/2 size smaller?

[pmacino]

I got my 2.3s and actually played on them today for an hour or so. WAY lighter feeling than the 1.3s, VERY comfortable, and VERY STABLE (especially in the heel and ankle)...

...and yes sizing was the same as the 1.3s so order them a 1/2 size smaller.

They felt like butter right out of the box. I was really impressed and don't care for my 3 week old vapor VIs at the moment (compared to the 2.3s). ....quickness of a Propulse 2/Vapor, Stability of a Propulse 2/CB1.3 and cushion of a 1.3.

The 2.3 will be a benchmark shoe IMO

I didn't go a half-size smaller when I ordered my 1.3's, which were a little bit big, so I think going with your regular size for the 2.3's (and a half up from the 1.3's) would be the best fit.

I just added a pair of Barricades for hard court:
