Babolat Propulse 4 Shoe Playtest

[Maroon_Tenniskid]

Thanks TW This is an awesome opportunity! I have had good experiences with my Propulse 2's and 3's in the past, and the 4's look very solid as well!

quick question, when will the conformation email be sent out?

[Andyroo10567]

Most likely the upcoming Wednesday-Saturday I'm assuming.

We will not be exchanging sizes. If you have any questions about fit, we can help out.

Alas, do they only go up to size 14? Run big? I wear a size 15 and have heard great things about the P3, but don't have many options (Usually just Adidas/Nike) in finding size 15 shoes.

Hi Brittany,

I keep reading that Babolat is half a size smaller and to go up half a size. I normally wear the adidas Barricade Team in a 10.5 so in my email I put size 11. Can someone at TW compare the fit from a 10.5 Barricade Team if I get chosen? Thanks in advance!

Hi jonnyjack,

We have yet to try on the Babolat Propulse 4's. We should be getting some samples to try on within the week and will update the fit if we find the sizing off.

We got your playtest application so you do not have to do anything!

Unfortunately, size 14 is the highest Babolat goes.

Awesome! Thanks britt! My Stupid email's lying to me haha

[darklore009]

got a question, does the 6 month warranty apply during the playtest?

[Andyroo10567]

6 Month durability wouldn't apply for Playtest. They are merely asking you to use the shoes, in turn, give a review for the 1 month you had them for.

[darklore009]

oh ok. just follow the format that the tw playtester has done with most of the shoes?

[Andyroo10567]

For the review portion?

wishful thinking that I'm going to be selected...

I wear a size 12 in Asics GR3 and Nike Lunar Vapor 8s. Would they fit the same/true to size?

Will keep my ears perked on your findings.

Thank you.

What is the selection process? Out of curiosity, does it matter when you send in an email application? Or do you wait until all of the e-mails are in and then select?

[Andyroo10567]

Most likely first come first serve basis. As long as the first that came meet the requirements listed, there good to go. They announce when they are going to stop accepting email applications. Until then, just email away.

The selection process for smaller playtests like this one is based on numerous factors. We keep the application process open for a couple days (about 4-5 days) and collect all the information from the applicants. Once we close the application process, we go through and pick the playtesters based on factors like previous playtest reviews, interaction on the board, etc.

I currently use Propulse 3 which is,IMHO, uniquely low profile in front but kinda fat
near heel. I would be very interested in how Babolat updated that unique
profile.
