Hello everyone, I am fairly new here on this platform so I hope this thread is in the right place. I want to talk about the vapor pro 2. What do you guys think about this shoe? I loved the vapor pro 1 and am very sad that you can't buy these anymore. I recently had to buy the vapor pro 2 because my last pair of vapor pro 1 were too worn out. I do not feel comfortable in this shoe, I feel like my feet are stuck in the ground, the first time I wore these shoes when sliding across the hardcourt I buckled my ankle and tore a ligament in my ankle. Luckily it was only 2 weeks of rest and treatment, and now still doing stability exercises. I just want to know what you guys think of this shoe, but I don't like it, even the fact already that half of the nike-sponsored players are still playing with vapor pro 1 (Alcaraz, Rune, Fritz, ...). Would love to try the vapor 9.5 but the price is holding me back a bit

Thanks and greetings from Belgium
 
I like the vapor pro 2 because it's very much a sliding shoe. Maybe a little more bottom heavy but the air zoom unit in forefoot is in my opinion better than it being in heel where it's kinda useless. Shoe is flexible as well and supportive, but interesting why you had problems with that. If you want another vapor pro 1, as far as Nike shoes maybe try gp challenge pro. similar midsole and even though not as fast, I heard from foot doctor Zach it's a comparison as far as sliding and feeling on ground. In terms of speed, if your will to give some sliding ability for speed, try Asics solution speed ff 3 tennis shoes. Also, if you want a little more support than the vapor pro 2 with eh same air zoom unit placement, features and lockdown, get vapor 11. Major discounts on it now.
