Nike Zoom Vapor X
The long popular Vapor series got an update in 2018 to the Vapor X. The newly updated adaptive fit and mesh uppers provide comfort and fit a variety of foot types. The outsole durability has been upgraded with this model, yet the shoes still feel low to the ground and fast around the court. Players who are aggressive movers and slide into their shots even on hard courts will appreciate the slightly slicker outsole.
