Babolat V-Pro All Court Wh/Bk/Red Men's Shoes Customer feedback
Comments: I play a lot of tennis and these shoes were pretty good for the first month and then the outer sole seemed to shift and squeak a little bit. After about four months later, the side of the shoe completely tore away on the court leaving me with one bare foot on the court.
Comments: I really enjoy a shoe that is low to the ground, flexible, and one
that places a premium on traction. IMHO, there actually aren't many
tennis shoes on the market that meet these requirements. The masses
want a lot of extra cushioning and a lot of extra support. However, I
feel these two qualities in a shoe make them less nimble and actually
increase the chance of injury. The thicker the sole of the shoe the
more leveraged force is placed on the ankle and knees especially
during mis-steps, ie ankle rolls. Similarly, the more support, the
less give there is in the shoe when you do misstep, and that can mean
a lot more strain on the ligaments in your knee. This shoe is the best I've found so far, although I feel it could
still be improved in all of those departments (again low to the
ground, flexibility, and traction). I actually removed the midsole
insert just to be that little bit closer to the ground. The one weakness of this shoe is the lacing. It seems that they
intentionally left the shoe short a couple of eyelets so that their
flagship shoe, the Propulse 3, would seem all the more important for
competition with its strap locking system. However, I took a drill to
the sides of the shoe and added eyelets as I saw necessary. Problem
fixed. HUGE improvement! As for durability, I burn through shoes, and these have lasted most of
the winter playing 1-2 times a week. So I'd say great durability. I
really can't stand it when a shoe is super durable, but at the
sacrifice traction. No shoe has both. These actually manage to have
better than average traction and better than average durability. I'm going to order a new pair for spring, and I recommend them
highly to all court players looking for a fast shoe.
Comments: Third pair if these and they squeak when moving. Weird! Very annoying. Other than that, which caused
me to replace one pair I love playing in them. However, if this
problem doesn't go away I am on to another lightweight shoe.
Comments: These shoes are a great update to the team all court 4's. Not only do they look great, they also feel
great. They make me feel faster when I am on court!
