So that's why my cages came from Holland. Interesting

Yup, I always wondered why that was. Found out from being on a sneaker forum. We share the available stock with Europe. These shoes (and the new Rafa color) are all up on the EU site, the GB site, and Canada.

Hey guys! Do we know anything about the Wimbledon collection? When it will drop or what will the accents of the whites will be?

I loved playing in these shoes up until this weekend. They're gorgeous, light as feathers, and fit my feet really well. My issue is that my left achilles was in terrible shape after playing five singles and one doubles match at state this past weekend. That's a lot of tennis and it's probably unfair to judge the shoes based on how my body responded to being on the court that much when I'm not used to it, but after seeing others write about similar achilles issues I'm going to switch shoes. If I'm only playing once or twice during the week I'll probably continue to wear the Vapors until they're worn out

I tried these on today and in comparison to Asics Court FF 2 I felt like I used some cheap $20 shoes from unknown company. They look like they can be torn apart with ease. Compared to this, Asics feel like some outstanding NASA shoe from the future…

Are the Vapor pros better than the react Vapor NXT tennis shoes for someone who is a base liner predominately?
Depends what you want.
My understanding is the Vapor NXT are very cushioned but the Vapor Pro are lighter/faster more of a minimalist shoe.
Never used the NXT, I do use the Vapor Pro on clay courts.

Normally I use the barricade 2021/22 shoe on all surfaces but they seem to be less durable compared to previous generations and they are very chunky shoes if that’s the right way of putting. Vapor NXT sound similar to a barricade I think but the reviews aren’t great from what I have seen. The Vapor pros are always reviewed highly by most people but look like a very narrow shoe which is a little concerning. If I was to change from the barricade to a shoe that offers the same characteristics but are lighter and more cushioned, which do you think would be better suited?

Vapor Pros, to me, are not as narrow as the Vapor X.
If you are after cushioning I would say the Vapor NXT.
The Vapor Pro are going to feel quite a bit different than the barricade.

Are they a fair bit narrower than the barricade then the Vapor pros? Ideally after a shoe that is a bit more lightweight than the barricade, offers good cushioning and stability and good levels of durability and comfort. So you think the Vapor NXT would be the better option compared to the Vapor pros?

I've never used the barricade or the NXT, but based on reviews the NXT are more cushioned than the Vapor Pro.
You can also see the soles are much thicker on the NXT.
You may want to give the Gel Resolution 8 a try. Many people speak about the comfort of those shoes.

Yeah the NXT look like they offer more cushioning and stability but some of the reviews seem very hit and miss with the shoe overall, especially when it’s that price. Would have loved ASICS to release some court ff2s again but not sure if that will happen. For a baseliner who moves aggressively and slides quite a bit, do you reckon the NXT are the shoes worth giving a go then?

I can't say, I have never used the NXT.
I am sure there is a thread about them though, I'd check there

Will have a look through that thread on the NXTs to see what people make of them as I believe most tennis players on this forum prefer the Vapor pros over most shoes but the width of the shoe puts me off a bit.

Wanting a clay court version, sadly this looks to be "all-court" only as I have checked some Euro sites.
Sad because this is the best looking colorway since the original french open-forest/dark green
