New Balance Coco CG1

[d-quik]

Lol! Nah, I just wore through em with how much I’ve been playing. Went through my Raptors about a month ago and couldn’t find them in my size . also ripped the upper in the B.Icons like everyone else did.The the Torneo’s… they’re just not the BS5’s man.

Jeez, the savagery

CG1's came in today. Will get them on court this afternoon for more first impressions. I'm between an 11.5 and 12 depending on the shoe, more often 11.5 than 12, and my 11.5 unisex size in these feel like they might be running just a tad long. Not much, you can probably still go with your normal size, but a half size down might not hurt some people if you're between sizes.

Did you have the option of changing the widths or no?

I did when buying direct from New Balance. TW may have, but the shoe is sold out already that I can't check.. wow that was fast.

I picked up a pair of these in the red US Open colorway. I haven't gotten them yet, but this is by far the most I have spent on a pair of tennis shoes in my life. I can still remember the look on my dad's face when he bought my first pair of Agassi challenge court shoes. Those were my first three-figure shoes.

Coco’s exclusive pair of CG1s for WTA Finals are sick. Assuming they likely won’t be sold, tho.

Hi TW,

No, not these, although I liked these and grabbed a pair. There’s an all black with lightning pair of CG1’s Coco wore in her first match with Pegula.

YES! Those are sick. Thank you @innoVAShaun

Happy to help.

Now that's more like it!!!

If they want to sell them as unisex... they need to make sure they have some that are not too girly in colour (as well as girly colour-ways).

 

[Subway Tennis]

I’m too old to get away with a colourway like that, but those lightnings are killer.

There have been quite a few good CG1 colourways but that’s the best one so far imo.

 

[ArliHawk]

So thinking about trying these because of an ankle issue. What is the consensus on sizing in these? Foot doctor Zach said they run long for normal/narrow feet but tts for wider feet. Other places say tts regardless.

 

[puppybutts]

the lightning shoes would motivate me to move my feet more. cause otherwise i'd feel lame wearing them haha

Can't help but think this is NB's shot at trying to catch Agassi Air Tech Challenge 2 lightning in a bottle.

 

[airchallenge2]

Can't help but think this is NB's shot at traying to catch Agassi Air Tech Challenge 2 lightning in a bottle.

Every brand out there, including nike, wants to catch Agassi's ATC 2 lightning in a bottle. It's been like that since... well, since Agassi showed up wearing those, haha

 

[Mike T]

Any word on a clay version of the CG1?

 

[innoVAShaun]

 

[PFG1]

Hoping to see these get restocked. Would like to try them in a M12.

 

[wt888usa]

New all-white ones seen yesterday!

 

[Classic-TXP-IG MID]

New all-white ones seen yesterday!

I like those... maybe they should go for a "Chicago Bulls" inspired colorway... Red with the black New Balance Logo, black rubber tread... and white cushioning outer sole. Now I would salivate if that one appeared.

 

[East Lions]

Just ordered a pair. They look sick and I liked Doctor Zach's review.

 

[wt888usa]

The "Neon Dragonfly" color way is available to purchase Jan 13

Snagged another pair. These are truly great shoes. Hope an all white colorway for Wimbledon gets retailed, those would look clean.

He’s not wrong. They’re great. The first hour wearing a mid top shoe on court was weird, but once I got used to it, pretty hard to go back.

Thanks. I might have to grab a white pair in wide for casual since I started using my Torneos on court now.

B.Icon is a great shoe, but have to agree with you on the durability. Hopefully the B.Icon 2 coming out addresses that issue. You might want to look at the BABOLAT PROPULSE FURY 3. I have tried all the shoes mentioned, and I have to say, these are pretty sweet! Definitely a shoe to try out. Could be the best shoe of 2023 IMO!

 

[bwongman]

Who cleaned out the stock of Coco's? There was a full size run of the sea salts just a couple of days ago and now its almost all gone. I was deciding between these and the Raptors

 

[innoVAShaun]

Bots from reseller sites?

 

[ArliHawk]

Says it drops 2/17 at midnight:

These apparently dropped early. Picked up a pair from manufacture’s site this morning. Feel like these are to appeal to more guys. The “charm” or whatever you want to call it isn’t on the top lacehole. Not like it bothers me anyway.

 

[Saitamaxpunch1]

I've been wearing the CG1s for about 4 months (tennis 3 days a week) and there's surprisingly little wear and tear. Super comfortable and great for speed. I bought a second colourway a couple months back expecting my current to have worn out now - but they are still very much intact.


Now that I see the Eclipse colorway I think I'm going to buy it as well: https://www.newbalance.com/pd/coco-cg1/UCHCOCO1-43367.html

I grew up wearing basketball sneakers and always felt tennis shoes looked bad in comparison - so these are the best choice IMO

 

[Mike T]

Has any one tried these on clay?

 

[brian anderson]

heads up tw just discounted these by 4cents if u wear size 6 or 14!

They do seem to be selling well.

 

[innoVAShaun]

Anyone try the wides yet?

 

[Saitamaxpunch1]

Anyone try the wides yet?

Yes the first pair I bought was wide, was a bit too wide for me (caused toe drifting), but I wore thicker socks and it was okay after that. 2nd and third pairs I bought the standard width.

 

[n80aoag]

Any sizing recommendations? Is everyone ordering true to size? Love the Lav V2s but curious to try something speedier. Anyone try both and care to comment on the sizing they ordered?
