Best Tennis Shoes of 2019
This year has been full of great new shoe releases. Our playtesters picked their favorites and tell you why they love them.
Asics Court FF 2
Our Thoughts:
"Simply the best tennis shoe I've worn. Right now there's nothing that can match the combination of speed and support I feel when I wear them. I always feel like I'm moving at my best when wearing the Court FF 2s."
Chris - TW Playtester
"Love these shoes because they offer a little bit of everything in terms of support, cushioning and speed! They allow me to feel super confident moving aggressively on the court and have become my go-to shoes. They keep me feeling quick and connected to the court -- plus, they look great and feel quick!"

KSwiss Ultrashot 2
Our Thoughts:
"The Ultrashot 2s are a great fit for my wider feet, and they deliver all-around performance. They're comfortable underfoot and provide all the support and stability I need. I liked the first version, and the Ultrashot 2s are a great update."
Tiffani - TW Playtester
"There were some solid shoes this year, but my favorite shoe of 2019 is the KSwiss Ultrashot 2. The comfort and durability are amazing! I also feel very locked in with these shoes and can move with maximum aggression. I would recommend these shoes to any player who is out on the court for hours on end!"

adidas SoleMatch Bounce
Our Thoughts:
"The Bounce material in the midsole is really plush but at the same time, responsive. It fits a bit wider, especially in the forefoot, so the fit was ideal for me. Stability and support was there and I liked the traction being a nice blend of grip and give."

Yonex PC Fusion Rev 3
Our Thoughts:
"The off-center lacing and full-bootie construction make me feel extra secure, and the responsive cushioning helps with quick changes of direction. For my next match, these are the shoes I'll step on the court with!"

New Balance Fresh Foam Lav
Our Thoughts:
"The New Balance Fresh Foam Lav was released at the beginning of the year, and more than halfway through 2019 there hasn't been anything better for me. The knit bootie construction hugs my feet like a glove, and the Fresh Foam cushioning underfoot feels very plush and responsive. Comfort, support and backed by a six-month outsole durability guarantee, what else could I ask for?!"
