Between a lightweight and supportive shoe?

[prjacobs]

Hi TW staff and others...
I'm now playing a lot more on hard courts and enjoying it a lot. I'm currently using zoom Vapor 9.5 tours on hard court and SS2s for clay. I love the SS2s on clay! The Nikes are starting to wear out, (no surprise to anyone[emoji4]) and I'm wondering if there's a shoe that's somewhere between a really fast lightweight shoe and a more supportive shoe. It wouldn't be a hardship to buy another pair of the ZV 9.5s. They are excellent shoes. I have medium width feet. I'm thinking about the SS3s for hard court and have always favored lighter shoes, but for some more support, I'm open to suggestions. Thanks for your feedback,
Paul

Are you talking arch support or stability? I wear SS3 with superfeet blue for extra arch support and its a great combo. I also rotate them with a pair of Asics Court FF, which are nothing short of luxurious and incredibly stable

It's such a different experience on clay. I forget I have my SS2s on, they're so comfortable. I've never had any arch issues. I guess for hardcourt, I'm talking about stability as I change direction, and stop and go. Do you find the the FFs fit true to size? I tried on a pair that were 1/2 size smaller because I read that they run a little long and could barely get my foot in. Do you find the SS3s to be stable? Thanks...

prjacobs,

We found the Vapor 9.5s slightly edge out the Solution Speed 3s in terms of stability due to the Adaptive fit technology really hold the feet in place. We have not playtested the Court FF yet (it is on our upcoming playtest list) so we can't compare them personally but they has gotten extremely positive customer reviews.

Thanks,
Brittany, TW
