TW BUYER - NIKE AIR ZOOM PRESTIGE - CLAY?

[Carl Roude]

TW Buyer - I noticed that there is an new Nike shoe the Air Zoom Prestige and there is a clay court version for the women. Will there also be a clay court version for men? If so can you disclose the color way?

Finally, have you seen this shoe and is it close to the Vapor 9.5 (which would be amazing as I did not like the Vapor X).

Thanks as always!!

Hi Carl,

I'm not the buyer but can try and help answer your question!

Why Nike didn't make this shoe in a clay outsole for the men is a great question and unfortunately, we don't have the answer for that one. We have asked...

There are/will be several clay options of the Prestige available in Europe -- men's, women's and juniors. They are waiting for them to be delivered before making them live at Tennis Warehouse Europe.

We did see samples of these shoes in meeting several months ago, but haven't seen the Prestige up close and personal yet as we haven't received ours but are looking forward to seeing how it compares to the Vapor 9.5 Tour. But in all honesty, I initially am thinking it may be more comparable to the Vapor Advantage -- still has those Vapor genes, but I would assume the durability will be similar to that shoe.

Hope that helps,

Michelle, TW
