Fila Shoes!

Hello,

Does anyone think fila shoes are good and do they recommend and type?

Thanks

Torneo II are quite good, and you can find them at good prices if you look.

The Punto's lacked cushioning and did not flex very well.

I have personally have worn the Flow Prossimo I. It was comfortable and had great traction. The only problem is that it wasn't durable at all. Whenever it starts to wear, the traction immediately plummets. Even the Flow Prossimo II has the same tread pattern and is made of the same material. I would warn you from these shoes unless you don't burn shoes out quickly.

I've worn the Torneo and Prossimo. The Torneo was ok. i thought it felt a little heavy. The Prossimo though was a great shoe. I felt very light on my feet and it had great traction. For fit, though, neither offered a very good fit for me. The Prossimo runs a bit large from what I remember. The Torney seemed to be for wider feet.

But, yeah, every Fila pair I've owned got worn out fast. Plus I've always thought Fila shoes were kind of funny looking. I really just bought them because I was curious how they were, and wanted something different than Nike or Adidas.

Those new Filas that are advertised in the current issue of Tennis Magazine look awesome.

Bought a pair of Torneos at half off. They wore out after 5 months of heavy use. Fila replaced them for free with a pair of Torneo IIs. I found the Torneos to be a very comfortable shoe. The Torneo IIs are even more comfortable and have better support. My preferred shoes are Addidas Barricades. The Torneos have nowhere near the stability of the Barricades, but they are just as comfortable and weigh a good bit less. Kind of a Barricade Lite.

Ivo Minar uses the Fila Prossimo. Hes a Pro, although not a very good one but still a pro.

I find ther Tourneos II very good for serious play. Hell all the sneakers wear out depending how rough you are with shoes. Look at the pros, they don't wearv them very long. The T II's are very good and plus you don't look like all the clones on the court who wear Adidas and Nike:
