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: Midnight / Cream

Bring Back the Old DesignOK, so it's not really a 1-star shoe, but it's a 1-star shoe versus the Gel Res 9.
I've been playing the Gel Res exclusively for the last 7 years. Until the Gel Res X redesign, the line has been the best of all possible worlds.
The previous versions were perfection: Extremely durable (I'm just under 200lbs, do a lot of running and sliding on hard court, and this shoe actually holds up), agile (despite being a heavier shoe, they're low to the ground and not over-cushioned, so great for players that rely on speed), and well fitted (true to size, comfortable right out of the box, and laces stay snug all match long).
The Gel Res X is, in a word, terrible. The shoes are bulky and slow compared to the previous models. The lacing system is a pain and has no benefit (unless you like retying shoes several times in the course of a match). They're uncomfortable (remember how I said the previous versions were comfortable out of the box? I have over 10 hours on these shoes and my feet STILL hurt around the sides of the mid-foot). The only thing they have in common with the previous Gel Res models is they can withstand a nuclear blast.
I'll be trying the adidas Barricades as my next shoe unless Asics goes back to the old design.
Midnight Cream Gel Res shoesBoth shoes rubbed against the bone on top side of feet; quite painful.
Really disappointed
IssueI’m not happy at all with this product, after to use them, they take forever to get dry and it’s something that the tennis players don’t like it since we have to play comfortable, I had them one time they were really good but this one that I have now probably they are not good probably they have a issue from fabrics. It’s something that bothers me a lot.
Resolution XThis shoe is a game changer. The best tennis and pickleball shoe I have ever worn. I read a lot of reviews before I purchased them and was concerned because they were not great. However I trusted that Asics has made nothing but great shoes for years and I was correct. Truly a game changing shoe.
Asics gel revolution tennis shoesExcellent. Very comfortable. Arrived on time. Highly recommended
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.
Purple tennis shoesI bought these for my high school son, he’s always worn the Rafa tennis shoes previously. These were as close as I could find to his school colors ( not quite). They were supposed to be a “get by” pair until I could find something else. He liked them so much that I bought him a second pair.
Great blend of comfort and stability!I think it's a very good tennis shoe—very comfortable and at the same time provides enough support to feel secure when running side to side or forward. It's a great blend of comfort and stability, definitely worth it. One important note: you should order this shoe half a size down. I'm normally a 9.5, but based on recommendations I ordered a size 9, and it was the right decision.
The most discomfort ever from a shoeThe raised inner wall of the shoe is digging strongly into my ancles causing severe pain when using these shoes for extended periods of time. Not recommended. This is clearly design flaw, hard to comprehend how they did not catch this problem when so many users reporting it. Cannot use the shoes and Asics does not stand behind their product ! Shame on them! Previous release of this shoe was great, this ver. X is not usable for me.
Better than previous model! But…These are actually better than the previous model, but the tricky thing is you have to find out your new specs, because its size/fit changed. With the Resolution 9, I used size 10 2E (Wide). For these resolution Xs, size 10 regular (not wide) actually fits me best. So I guess the regular sizes are wider now. The previous models were way too narrow, even the wide one was a little too tight. These Xs are also softer and more comfortable, as well as being a little more spacious, I like them more.
