These shoes are even better than the previous generation, in my opinion! As a group ex instructor who suffers from occasional nerve pain in my forefoot, these are a MUST. I use them for indoor cardio classes that feature lots of power moves such as plyometric lunges, skaters, power squats, burpees, and jump shots. The firm soles are just what the doctor ordered, the cushion is firm but supportive, and the lower heel-to-toe ratio is very helpful. These are grippy, provide great ankle stability in lateral moves, and still work well for speed movements like running.

This is a great court shoe. I read the description and ordered a half-size up to 10.5. When it arrived, the shoe looked narrow, but the fit is great, and the toe box is very comfortable. Several reviews mentioned this was a great indoor pickleball shoe, and I completely agree. This shoe looks great, fits well, and plays great. I would definitely buy again.

Asics are my best fit

Excellent fit with no discomfort at all! They feel great even after a 5-mile hike. Additionally, they are equally comfortable on sidewalks or trails. I had a white pair and ordered this pair in black to ensure that I had a backup.

These had no cushioning in the forefoot, which I need for playing table tennis. The fit was good.

I stick with Asics and Ryka because I have slightly narrow feet.

These are comfortable right out of the box. These are my “go-to” volleyball shoes.

These are my favorite court shoes. After years of coaching volleyball, I now play pickleball in them. When the arch support wears out, I put an arch support liner inside to get more time with them.

Teen daughter who plays a lot of volleyball loves these. Good grip on the court and the shoe is a little narrow in the heel for added stability. These are a win!

They have a great weight to them. My daughter says they are comfortable and feel great on the court. Feel well made. And fit true to size.

Stability is very good in these shoes. I did have to add an arch support because there was little support for my high arches. Nice roomy toe box which is had to find in volleyball shoes. I do have slight slipping on my right heel but lacing in top hole helps. All in all, good volleyball shoes that I would purchase again.

My old volleyball shoes were well past worn out, I just didn’t know it. At least not till I put these on my feet…what a difference. The stability is firm, the toe box is very roomy and the heel is narrow….perfect for my feet. It’s hard for me to find shoes that don’t pinch my pinkie so I usually have to stretch them…not these. Love ‘em.

Other ASICS I have are size 10M. My foot is a 2A narrow. This style is crazy tight with a slim footie! And it seems shorter too. Maybe I will try a larger size! Then my foot will look like I have skis on! :/

I have been a die hard fan of the Gel Tactic 2 -- I have 3 pairs, and they have never hurt my feet, my joints and back have never hurt from playing, and most important of all: They allowed me to move fast and aggressive on court due to their lightness and fairly low to the ground feeling.
This new model however -- seems to be more padded and offers more support, which is great and all, but the weight has bumped up, as well as the size and bulk of the build of this shoe. Your feet are a little higher up, and not able to take off so fast and cut directions so smooth.
I do hope the Gel Tactic 2 model as it is will still be considered to be made in production, because it offered more than enough cushioning/support, and allowed speed and agility to excel as well.
I am not
