    Nike Air Tech Challenger feedback

    Picked up my pair after waiting in line for an hour. Worth it. Leather is a step up from 2014 pairs in my opinion

    Lacoste AG-LT23 and LT23 Lite

    Not sure what to make of sizing on the ultra. I don’t have the opportunity to try them on. I wear a 9.5us in the on Roger pro as well as the vapor 9.5. This fit absolutely perfect without much room. Should I get a 9.5 or 10? Any help would be great!

    Official Nike Zoom Vapor 9.5 Thread

    The issue I’m most curious about is whether or not people are playing through the toe on the leather version. Seems like the toe would be much less durable than the mesh ones with the rubber toe guard

    ON (The Roger) tennis shoes

    Vapor 8 is an interesting choice given that Roger never fully committed to it and that I don’t recall being as popular as the Vapor 6 or 9 models

    ON (The Roger) tennis shoes

    Anyone have any info on whether there will be new colours available for the AO? Been wanting to try this shoe out before it gets updated but not too keen on the white and blue that seems to be the only one available in my size right now

    People asking Wilson Tennis to re-release Pro Staff 90 on Instagram

    why not release the RF 97 in all the cosmetics of his previous grand slam winning frames. Call it the grand slam pack, stagger the release throughout the year and watch the money roll in.

    as others have said, that is the new GP Turbo. I had a sample in that colour as well as a more Wimbledon colour on my feet

    Adidas Stycon Laceless Tennis Shoe

    ^^ there will be no boa system on the shoe. Also Adidas has been doing laceless shoes in other sports like soccer and basketball for some time so I would guess it's more them looking to roll this out across all sports rather than the specific Tsitispas incident

    Rumor of a new RF racquet at French Open 2018

    ^^ slightly off topic but those posts of the new head speed are not the final paint job. similar to the previous speed, there are blacked out cosmetic samples going around but the finished product will have white in the paint job. these black outs are to build social media hype

    Djokovic shoe switch

    I wouldn't be surprised if adidas dropped novak, moving forward they are going to be promoting Zverev big time. This includes his own signature shoe built off the ubersonic platform called the Gen Z

    New Pure Drive 2018?!

    I skimmed the thread and couldn't find anyone confirming it so I will. There will be a Pure Drive VS and VS tour (I believe this is the naming they are going with) they will be 98sq inch head size and thinner beams while maintaining the same oval beam design of the drive line. Those are all the...

    Bonjour from Babolat: Part Trois

    saw the new pure drive a couple of days ago, not terribly impressed. Looks like they stuck with the pure aero design turned it blue then slapped drive where the aero is. tech wise, i've been told it's a return to the traditional string pattern and cortex has been internalized and moved further...

    LUNAR BALLISTEC OUTSOLE : ( !!!!

    had three pair of the lunar's and they all wore like that. I chalked it up to my sliding on court wore away the foam in the middle which allowed the outsole to peel away. Stopped buying them and lesson learned

    Are Rackets really where the $$ is?

    ^^^ having worked in the industry for a long time, I can say racquets are not high margin. Balls and frames are low margin, strings/stringing labour, clothing and shoes are where margin is made
