Review on New Balance π Men's Impulse Court Tennis Shoes by Mensur Long
I still love New Balance.
Without the slightest exaggeration, I have to admit that these shoes are pretty terrible. They are very wide in the toe area. As a sports shoe for tennis, I consider them completely unsuitable, together with the low weight of the shoe. They couldn't really lock my foot and ankle on lateral movements on the court. I went out with them once for about 5 minutes and honestly felt like I was going to hurt myself. I immediately went home to change my shoes. As a guy who owns many pairs of New Balance shoes, I've learned the hard way that New Balance is primarily good for trainers and maybe sneakers, but NOT tennis shoes.
Pros
- Very stable and will be very durable. My first pair of proper tennis shoes and I'm happy with them so far.
Cons
- Shoes may not be suitable for players who prefer a more minimalist outsole design.
