This 10th generation of the Gel Resolution delivers stability, durability, and comfort! A great option for players looking for trusty and comfortable shoes.
The Asics Gel Resolution X (2E) takes stability, durability, and comfort to the next tier as Asics incorporates key updates, and builds upon the popularity of the previous generation (Asics Gel Resolution 9). A re-engineered Dynawall maximizes the lateral stability, while maintaining comfort as you plant and cut aggressively for changes in direction. The midsole is now more plush than previous versions with a combination of FlyteFoam Blast+ and ECO Foam; forget not the signature Gel cushioning in the forefoot. The medial side of the ankle collar has been raised to provide comfortable padding, while the PGUARD on the medial side of the toe box provides drag protection, for those players who slide on hard courts. A Full length AHAR Plus rubber outsole carries on the reputation of being one of the most durable in the industry, and the tread pattern provides good grip on a variety of surfaces. Backed by a Tennis Warehouse six month outsole durability guarantee.
- Upper: DYNALACING for a customizable fit and added comfort when cinching the laces tightly. Full length Flexion Fit upper with increased support, comfort, and ventilation.
- Midsole: FlyteFoam Blast+ and ECO Foam combine for cushioning and energy return. Asics' signature GEL adds to the shock absorption, and a responsive feel under foot. The Dynawall system is redesigned for more lateral stability and improved comfort on the lateral side of the foot.
- Outsole: Full length AHAR Plus rubber outsole in a multi-directional tread pattern, with pivot points for durability and traction on any court surface. PGuard Toe Protector for those who slide and toe drag. Backed by a tennis warehouse six month outsole durability guarantee.
- Color: Greige / Oat

Customer Reviews
Best optionMS150/Asics Gel Resolution X 2E Wh/Black Men's Review. There are a lot of strong opinions on this shoe. After buying two pairs of NB 1007s I wanted to see how these stacked up, despite the reviews. It is a lot stiffer shoe that the NB. That is a positive to me. The NB flexes too much and is soft out of the box. In contrast, this has less flex, which my feet needed (15EE). The NB midsole was too soft and flexible and causes issues for me. This shoe fits true to size lengthwise. Maybe a little less than a EE but every shoe has its "personality". The toe box is what I look for - no pressure on my toes/toenails without the shoe feeling loose. I can tell this shoe is going to be hot, so making sure the shoe dries out after play will be important. Ventilation is limited. I empathize with several reviewers that ask why these companies mess with great shoe models. They spend a lot of money to do so. Seems wacky. I end up buying 2-3 pairs of great models because I know the manufacturer will surely screw up and change them before I need the next pair...
A big downgrade from the v9I've worn Asics Gel Res since v6 (wide) and absolutely loved them. I've never had any foot pain or injuries. I started wearing this v10 model and heal pain began almost immediately. The lacing system is awful too. I can't really define what it is specifically that's causing my frustration with these shoes, but it's enough that I'm switching to a new make/model ASAP.
Why did they changeBoth my son's have worn the Asics Gel Resolutions for the last 4+ years and have absolutely loved the shoe. Now Asics makes a radical change to the design that results in a shoe that is heavier, stiffer, higher side walls that dig into their ankles, and just completely uncomfortable to wear. Sometimes you need to recognize that when you have the most popular item on the market change, especially significant change isn't a good thing. Just ask Addidas when they changed the Barricade to the bootie design about 4 years ago when we switched to Asics. I could continue to complain and express my disappointment but I need to find new shoes for my players. I do not recommend the Gel Resolution X.
Res XNeed break in - have me blisters first use
ASICS flopI see the future, and its people studying the fall from grace of the resolution. As asics how do you take the most popular tennis shoe, one that has been solid for generations and drop the ball this hard. This shoe is a dumpster fire in all ways (fit, sizing, weight, etc) if I could go back in time I’d buy every resolution 9 I could find. Keep some for me and sell the rest, people are literally listing the past gen’s at double the price because of this disaster of an update
Wish for the Gel 9'sI waited for these until my Gel Resolution 9's wore out. Bummer as these pinch into the top of my feet and seem tighter than the previous generation. I like the other improvements with the sole and laces and tongue, but they bite into top of my feet and unwearable.
Really Wanted These To WorkThese looked stylish, but they were a huge letdown. Despite their wide fit, the toe area tore up the tops of my toes, causing blisters, and the ankle collar rubbed my skin raw with short socks. I tried breaking them in, but the scratchy, heavy feel—like wearing metal knight’s boots—made them unbearable. For the price, these shoes were a waste, prioritizing looks over comfort, and I’d recommend choosing something more comfortable.
Too hot for South FloridaThis generation doesn’t have good ventilation. After a 2 hour play, my feet end up pruney. Like if I was inside a pool the whole time. Need to wait until winter to continue using them. Additionally, took a while to break them in.
Currently, I am looking for alternatives.
Unfortunately the reviews were rightThe Gel Resolution 9s were my favorite tennis shoes Ive worn. I wore my normal size 12 and never had any issues.
I went down half a size for the Xs per Tennis Warehouse recommendations and generally the shoe fits fine on my foot (toe box feels about the same as size 12 9s), but they're absolutely brutal on my feet once I start moving. I was wondering if maybe my feet were just worn down from playing a lot but the pain went away as soon as I switched back to the Asics Solution Speed FF3s. Shoe seems to rub both on the inside and outside of your foot somehow. The weight isn't terrible, but definitely a little heavier than the 9s.
The GR9s had to be the most frequently worn shoe in my area. I'm genuinely perplexed why a company would take such a successful shoe and modify it so dramatically (including messing with the sizing). Will have to look for a durability alternative until Asics goes back to what made the 9s great
Ruined a legacyI’ve worn the resolutions since the 7s, they have been the only shoe I have purchased in many years and have gone thru many many pairs. They were arguably the most popular shoe. So why as asics would you literally change everything that made it great. Fit is way off now, heel slip is terrible and the new lacing system doesn’t allow for a successful runners knot. As a teaching pro I wouldn’t wear the X even for lessons where I’m only feeding, they are literally that bad…. asics please bring back the 9s.
