Overview

This is one of the most popular, time-tested multifilaments ever made. It offers optimal comfort, touch, power, and feel. According to Wilson, NXT offers a 10% increased sweet spot over traditional synthetic gut, as well as 74% less vibration. Players with slow to moderate swing speeds will benefit from the power of NXT. It's also great for all types of players that love the classic gut-like feel of a multifilament, as well as being a great option for polyester string users as part of a hybrid. Tennis elbow sufferers looking for a softer, more comfortable string should also give NXT a try.

 

  • Gauge: 16/1.30mm
  • Length: 40ft/12.2m (note: 44ft length no longer available)
  • Composition: Multifilament (Xycro Micro fibers bonded with polyurethane)
  • Color: Black

LoveNow I understand what it feels like to love a racquet. I tested so many and never got the rush! Then a friend lent me this and I immediately felt “at home” hitting with it. I ordered and am using the TFight now and I do not know why, but it works for me!!!

Clash racquetOverall I like it. Good for serving; forehand and back hand shots. BUT it doesn't perform as well on short volleys often proving weak and requiring a lot of swing to get the ball back which can result is over playing a volley instead of putting the point away

X-masFor one I know nothing about tennis racquets. My boys play and I am upgrading what they had. I had no clue what to buy, but after reading about picking the right racquet on tennis warehouse website along with some Google research I felt very comfortable with my purchase. As the title states (X-mas) these are a gift for my boys as they progress in the game. I can't review the product but I can review the process. The process was great. You can educate yourself with the information tennis warehouse has on their site as to the kind of racquet you need. When it came to string selection it was like o-boy there are quite a few. But again after some research on string types I felt completely comfortable with what I picked. I am hoping my kids like my selection of racquet, won't know until spring. I highly recommend getting your racquet or racquets here instead of just anywhere. At tennis warehouse you know it's right because in essence you built it. I am aware that (racket) is not the correct spelling.

ForgivingI chose to pair the Wilson NXT with a Yonex Ezone racquet in 2020 because I developed elbow tendinitis using a very light racquet and 60 lb. tension. After switching to the heavier Yonex and multifiber strings at a lower tension, I haven't had the tendinitis for five years now. I can't say the strings alone are the reason for my recovery, but I'm sticking to the multifiber strings because they absorb impact so well.

Wilson NXT String 16 GuageI purchased a Wilson Blade 104 racquet and had it strung with the Wilson NXT 16 at 57 lbs. I've only used the new racquet once but I was not disappointed. It performed better than the demo. Very controllable power and easy spin.

Strings too looseI requested 55 when I bought the racquet but they can’t be more than 45. I love these strings when they are strung the right tension though.

Poor durabilityGot these strings strung on a new Wilson ProStaff. Strung by TW. Within 3 weeks these were showing signs of fraying. Might have used the racquet 9 times. Advanced intermediate. I would not recommend this string.

Low DurabilityStrings strung on a new racquet (Wilson RF01) purchased from TW. Maybe got 4-5 hitting sessions (1-1.5 hrs ea) on strings before they frayed (very early) and eventually broke. Durability is LOW for 4+ rated player. I would not recommend or purchase again. I honestly didn't get the 'comfort' feel of these strings either (main reason for selecting).

RecommendI thought the folks who worked for Tennis Warehouse and interacted with me were very helpful; gracious; experienced. But I had to laugh. After I paid about $250 for the racquet and stringing I was told it "would be shipped." It did not arrive. I called back and was told it was not shipped because "the computer would not ship because I had not paid the full bill." When I said I authorized the represented to bill my credit card she said "let me check." There was a long delay. She finally came back on the phone and reported it was not shipped because I was "one penny short." We laughed and it was shipped - expedited - and I am playing with it and find its is just great. The delay was trivial. But you might check on how to avoid that in the future.

Wilson Clash 100l v3 with NXTTelephone service in ordering a new Wilson Clash 100l from Tennis Warehouse was helpful in reviewing the suitability of the racquet and multi NXT string at 54 lbs. I am a senior 3.5 player and this lighter racquet is just right for playing doubles. The racquet was delivered on time and the purchase with a gift certificate went smoothly.

String tensionThe string itself is okay, but the racquet was strung terribly. I ordered three racquets with the same string to be strung at the same time tension. All vary wildly in their actual tension. Terrible stringing

Its feel matches its nameUsed this string for the Clash v3 108. I have a hinky dominant shoulder and both the string and racquet do a lot of the work for me. There is still a nice pop to the string at volleying and a good give on returning a ball with pace. Good combination.

great stringsThese multifilament tennis strings are a game-changer! I love the soft, arm-friendly feel they provide, making long hours on the court much more enjoyable. The strings have a nice, responsive feel that gives me great control and touch on my shots. Plus, the black color looks sleek and stylish on my racquet. I highly recommend these strings to any player looking for a comfortable option.

stringing jobOrdered a strung racket that was strung. incorrectly. No room for dampener as the stringing was done all the way to the bottom. Never seen that before. Have to pay for restringing at my local club. Poor job.

Strings reviewThe strings were not up to the mark. Not sure if I have received the new strings but they got broken in a day. They were too thin on the racquet and got worn out in one day.

Great racquet and a great place to buyI have not bought a racquet in a long time but wanted to get a light one with good control. Tennis Warehouse had all the details of the racquet, and it was very easy to narrow down the choices to the right one for me. Their team kept me updated on the progress of the order and it arrived as promised, well packed in good condition. If you want to research and buy the best tennis gear, here is where you go.

Previous Feedback  

Comments: These strings are great for players with arm, wrist, and shoulder issues. They are a little stiffer than the natural NXT Comfort strings, but not that much. I have my Clash 100L strung at 50 pounds. It's an amazing feel with plenty of power.
