TENNIS Magazine's Top 2014 Tennis Shoes
It's time for the TENNIS Magazine Shoe Guide 2014 (May/June 2014)! Dozens of players of all levels (recreational to former touring pros) tested tons of shoes and rated them. Then, TENNIS had Dr. Sharnoff, a consulting podiatrist for the WTA Tour, rate each and every shoe from a technical perspective. The results were tallied, averaged and then combined for this list of 2014's top tennis shoes! *Updated in 2017*

ASICS Gel Solution Speed 2

Editor's Choice Best Game Day Shoe: ASICS Gel-Solution Speed 2


A light, fast shoe designed for competitive play.

TENNIS magazine says: "The Gel-Solution Speed 2 will stand up to rigorous play, but it's the lightweight, low ride and airy ventilation that really stand out."
