Turbo’s
overall not as snug, although some mention a tight toe box.
also some have mentioned the turbos have a loose ankle. I’ve found using the heal lock lacing a perfect remedy.
the sole is 100x more durable. Been playing in these since August and they show almost no wear. The Zoom Zeros’ outsole had worn through the toe after only a few hours on the court.
the turbos are not a forward biased as the ZZ’s. It’s there but not as pronounced.
the cushioning of the turbos is what puts them over the top for me.

Great review and comparison thank you. I still have 3 pairs of ZZ's in the closet but will def keep an eye out for Turbo's in the future.
I really like the ZZ cushioning and overall fit to my narrow foot, though I do have to lace them up tight. Durability has been decent, not as bad as Vapors.
Thank you - any other comments/thoughts are appreciated.

I pulled out my grass sole Zoom zeros today to play on artificial grass. Forgot how awesome they felt and how quick I was able to move in them. Bringing out the hard court pair for a match in a couple of days and leaving the Kyrie Vapors and Cage 4 in the cupboard for awhile.

ZZ was way too tight up top. so much so it was cutting off circulation to top of my feet. very bad weird feeling after 2 hours of playing if you ask me. Try the GP Turbo, your feet will feel like it is walking in HEAVEN. Or if you must have a super light shoes, then wait for Vapor NXT

I am down to my last pair. Quite a unique shoe. I wish now that I had stocked up during their closeout.

They weren't hideous enough for Nike.
For the GP Turbos they got Kyrgios drunk and gave him some Legos to play with and worked like a charm.

For me, the ZZs are very comfortable, but lacked stability. Maybe that’s why the GPTs replaced them.

Love the ZZ -- stocked up enough to at least play a couple years I hope. Luckily they are still out there if you look hard enough.

Nice I have 3 pairs in reserve. Typically I rotate between 2 pairs of shoes at a time.
