Curious if Nike will extend the 6-month period since the local courts are all closed due to coronavirus.
no chance on that.. but they are green lighting quick processing and offering full retail vouchers at the moment. tennis by the way should be allowed. i played yesterday and never got closer than 20 feet from my opponent.. 90% of the tennis courts are locked.. but still have 2 that are open. one by my house and one by my work.Curious if Nike will extend the 6-month period since the local courts are all closed due to coronavirus.
Honestly, outsole needs be exposedmidsole (foam) in order to get the warranty.
Thanks for the feedback @norcal @kimguroo and @Uncoil
I agree about wearing through the outsole and showing the midsole for the warranty.
From these pictures, I have already worn through the outsole on the side and already wore through quarter of the midsole. Shouldn’t this qualify for the warranty? Am I looking at this wrong?
What exactly does outsole mean though?Nope, gotta be through the outsole. Impressively neutral feet though, very even wear!
Does anyone have any experience with Asics returns? Preferably from the UK.
Vapors don't do warranty exchanges so you are outta luck there..the Cages do but u gotta wear the shoe out within 6 months of date of purchase..I’ve never sent a shoe in but I’ve got some pictures of some cage’s with holes and a vapor that is almost gone.
I know. I just love this thread because I love seeing snarled and roughed up tennis outsoles!Vapors don't do warranty exchanges so you are outta luck there..the Cages do but u gotta wear the shoe out within 6 months of date of purchase..
I am about to send off some Asics Gel Resolution 8s. Do I have better chance getting the replacement through the tennis retailer or directly from Asics? The shoes are definitely worn through the sole
Wasn't aware people were having these kind of problems. Thanks for the threadIf you bought them from Tennis Warehouse, definitely send the shoes back to them. That's what they instruct you to do, and customer service is great. Seems Asics hasn't been so responsive: Asics Warranty Replacement

Me too for 996V4.Update: I sent in the shoes and got a voucher to order new pair of shoes from New Balance. No questions asked.
Are the 996's in stock anywhere? the 2E's seem to be out everywhereMe too for 996V4.

Oh yeah, the new blue colorway,looks very nice.Yeap. NB just came up with new color. Check their official site please.
No it’s not. It has to have a physical hole, so not just barely showing of the foam.I bought these cages on 1/4/21 so I have a little less than a month left; but just curious to see if this is good enough.

So am I good to send it back?So, the companies like Nike are balking at covering their warranty, because the traction of the shoe is compromised the moment there is foam, and not rubber contacting the court surface. There is a clear distinction as to what is there for what: rubber for traction, midsole foam for cushioning.
There IS a "physical" hole in the rubber.

Midsole is slightly exposed so you're probably good. I'd personally play on them for a couple more hours to expose more midsole.So am I good to send it back?![]()
I have not claimed any warranty for a while but Nike is/was very generous for their warranty.I bought these cages on 1/4/21 so I have a little less than a month left; but just curious to see if this is good enough.
Bought these Asics August 2020, outsole is good,though they are both tearing on this spot, right more then left, what do you think?
These are Asics Solution Speed FF Clay. I sent the pictures to tenniswarehouse and they rejected the warranty saying it is due to extensive use. I believe this should be covered, shoes were used under around 60 hours. Even though I am 'running type' of player.Considering the shoes are 9 months old and that's not the outsole, I'm going to go with a resounding "no". Actually what Asics are those? They don't look like Resolutions, so they wouldn't even have a sole warranty.
If that happened in an hour or two of use, I can see them possibly honoring a return/warranty.These are Asics Solution Speed FF Clay.

I thought these things would be covered by warranty ... my bad ..9 months old shoes?
Why do you believe they should be covered? I'd say if out of the box like that -- Yes. The day you took them out, no.
There is a reason why the sole is covered for 6 months on some shoes...
So you end up trying them? Did it come with a warranty?Vapor X Knit
The knit nor the standard vapor x came with a warranty.So you end up trying them? Did it come with a warranty?
