Wilson Tour Ikon Silver/Black/Red Men's Shoe Customer feedback

Comments: Bought these shoes less than 3 weeks ago from a local store. Had been using Prince T-22 but the Wilson felt great and I thought their top shoe would be pretty dang nice, however...I have had a similar experience as the gentleman who said the he got 2 inch tears on each shoe sole. I only play about 8 hours a week on hardcourt (Wilson website describes these as "All-court low-profile multi-directional full herringbone outsole"), so maybe had 20-24 hours of use before the outsole on the inside edge of each shoe wore down to almost nothing and then started tearing. It almost caused my ankle to roll over due to the outsole got so thin that it felt like it had rolled on itself when I was trying to stop. Later that game it just started to separate. The shoes are pretty useless at this point and even with the outsole guarantee I'm not sure it's worth the postage to send them to back to Wilson if they only last 3 weeks. I CANNOT recommend these shoes. Yes the shoes are comfortable, but I agree that Wilson totally fumbled this for what is supposed to be their top shoe and hopefully they will fix it.

Comments: Awesome shoe! Great comfort, support and traction. Relatively light considering how much cushioning and support they provide. Like an adidas Barricade with a more snug fit. Way to go Wilson. This is a home run ball!

Comments: Great shoe! Much more comfortable than previous Wilson shoes - a true pro level shoe. They feel great right out of the box and still have a 6 month durability guarantee on the outsole and the toe guard! Wilson is stepping up!

Comments:I bought these shoes a week ago and played a futures tournament in Portugal with them. I played 2 or 3 matches with them and practiced all week long. Yesterday morning during warmup, to my surprise, the shoes started "squeaking". I looked at the soles and there was a 2-inch tear on each thumb side of each shoe sole, which opened up into a hole beneath the sole. So basically, the shoes are ruined. The sole wears out waaaay too fast for hardcourt play (which was my case) and on top of that it rips itself apart in an instant (which can also be dangerous). Although the shoes are very comfortable and easy to wear, Wilson made a serious "fumble" on this one. These are supposed to be the top shoes from them, the ones the pro athletes wear... but they have a big manufacture defect, something that I (and most certainly everyone who uses these) find unacceptable. Unless this has only happened to me... So, for anyone who plays competitive/regular tennis with some intensity, I do NOT recommend these shoes.

Comments: Huge upgrade over their previous shoes. The red and silver is sharp! The best part of this shoe is you don't notice it! Not too heavy, not too soft, not too stiff. Solid shoe!

Comments: After receiving this with my Advisory Staff package I am pleased with these shoes. The arch is just the right height and the fit is true. Not to bulky for a durability shoe. I was able to wear these right out of the box and teach for 8 hours. The durability would appear to be good from what I can tell. I really like the red, black and silver.
