I was worried about break-in time, but the carbon plate felt responsive right out of the box—no blisters on my first match. The energy return is noticeable when I push off for a serve, and the sole grips well on hard courts.

The carbon plate in the sole gives a really crisp, propulsive feel when I push off for a serve. The upper is also more breathable than my last pair, which helps keep my feet cooler during long matches.

The energy return on these feels noticeably snappier than my old shoes, especially when I’m pushing off for a quick volley. They’re light enough that I don’t notice them during a long match, which is exactly what I wanted.
