Bought myself a pair of white GPC1s last week and tried them out today for the first time. I first went with size 47 (my usual) but quickly noticed I should size up for these babies. 47.5 is exactly perfect, even though I need to lace them a bit tighter and more often.
I’ve owned many pairs of tennis shoes over the years, because I like trying out multiple models and brands to see which is most to my liking. Most recently I went with the Cage 4 and Wilson Rush 4.5, and I can confidently say these GPC1s offer so much more. Movement is quick and snappy, I feel like bouncing on my forefeet, and they’re very reactive to sudden movements. I even felt quicker than I’ve ever been before. Cushioning is fantastic, better than all previous shoes (perhaps even when combined).
Curious to see how they’ll hold up in the future, but very enthusiastic so far. I have also bought a pair of ASICS Court FF3 last week and I’m also a big fan of those. GPC1s offer just a tad more cushioning which is right up my alley.
Also wanted to express my thanks to everyone here posting their experiences — it has helped me take this decision and buy the GPC1s. Hopefully this review will inspire other people to try them as well!
