I'm an aging tennis player that was looking for the best 3/4 shoe with industry best cushioning. I'm happy to say I have found it too. It's called the Adidas Crazy Explosive.For the elders among us that require a super plush and responsive feeling look no further than this lightweight basketball shoe. The Boost in the heel makes you feel like you’re on cloud nine, while the forefoot feels a little lighter on the Boost pellets. Lighter? Yes. For the Crazy Explosive,whether it be the Primeknit or the neoprene model, the Boost cushioning is the same and it’s super awesome. I can change direction so easily in these.
Is there a drawback? Yes. The sole of the shoe is soft and if you play super aggressive on hard courts, you'll burn them smooth in no time.
However, if you are anything like me, you play mostly doubles 2-3 times per week and guess what? Your knees will thank you a thousand times.
For you traditionalists, you can actually get it in ALL WHITE and it looks fantastic. The GeoFit system on this shoe locks your foot in much better than any flat tennis shoe I have used in recent memory.
