Description
Perhaps the biggest compliment we can pay the Courtsmash shoes is that, despite having more expensive pairs to choose from, we often defaulted to these in our hard-court matches. In the middle ground, you can get hybrid soles that work well on both hard courts and clay. However, if you frequently play on clay, consider a dedicated pair of shoes just for that surface. They should last a while, too, due to the softer landings. This means that it will have a toughened “upper” that makes the shoe more stable. Compare it to the flimsy piece of mesh material that’s often found in running shoes to reduce weight; press against that hundreds of times, as you will in a high-intensity game of tennis, and it will soon wear through. The main thing you’re looking for is simple: something that describes itself as a tennis shoe. Not squash (the grip is different), not running (the shoes won’t last more than a few intense sessions), but specifically tennis. The other common surface in the UK is astroturf or “TigerTurf”, which is designed to be like artificial grass. Because these have a layer of sand on top of the nylon fibres (the “grass”), from a grip point of view they’re more like clay than hard courts – a hybrid pair of shoes work well here. Are there specialist brands to look out for?
For the same reason, you want nice, durable sides. A good pair of tennis shoes will simply feel more solid than a normal pair of trainers.The straightforward herringbone pattern on the sole means they aren’t a great choice for clay courts, but they’ll be fine for occasional matches on clay if you can’t stretch to dedicated shoes.
