Not ASICS quality - These shoes are falsely advertised. There is hardly any cushioning in these kicks (meaning that there is hardly any "gel"). If you are looking for price, by all means get these shoes, but if you are going to play squash at least 4 or more times a week look for something ELSE! I will give them credit for being very light.

Classics basics.... Asics is always promising when it comes to sport specifics. I find this shoe very comfortable and safe when I’m playing. Classically stylish and nice looking. When I first fitted the shoe, it felt smaller but I gave it time to break in, now it’s perfect.

Great shoe - Excellent, comfortable court shoe for the money. Watch sizing as I had to return the first pair I ordered because they were too small. Of course Zappos prepaid return shipping and excellent customer service made exchanging the shoes a breeze!

Great shoe!!! I have major problems finding shoes to fit my feet and these do just that. I bought these mainly for working out at the gym (cardio, lifting and such) and they fit me great. The best way to describe is that they mold to my feet, they are very light, no slippage or rubbing of any kind. I'm glad now that I bought 2 pair right of the bat...I've got the white and the red/white and black. What more can I say, they fit well, feel good, and look good! Major kudos to Asics as always!

They get the job done - Even though I tried on several different vball-shoe-brands and decided that Mizuno was the best fit for me, I don't part easily with my money. Knowing that I take a half size larger than usual in Asics, I realized that Asics are consistently less expensive than Mizuno vball shoes, so I settled on these puppies and crossed my fingers. I play twice a week and these guys have done me well. My feet are C-width and these shoes can be plenty tightened without making them look silly. Good, utilitarian vball shoes.

Volleyball Shoe - Great looks and comfort, especially when jumping. The gum sole provides for good traction on the gym floor. The service from Zappos was quick and accurate.

I play a mean, fast, energetic game of badminton as an old fellow that I am. These shoes are excellent for me getting around the court. I take a B width and these say they are D, but I don't think they are. They fit me just fine.

Tight Fit - I've been an Asics fan for over 25 years back when they used to be TIGER. I was real happy to get these shoes, but I found them to be a little tight around the instep area. I've had to wear them very loose just for the fit and comfort. Asics will always be the number shoe.

Excellent racquetball shoes from a trusted brand. I looked at other shoes that are made by racquetball companies but saw that they didn't seem to last long. I normally play 2-3 hrs 3 times a week, and these shoes just get more comfortable each week. The Gel-Rocket III, while made for volleyball, works well for any type of court sports. I didn't even have to break them in, and I played 3+ hrs the first day I wore them. Very comfortable, and I felt a definite improvement to my game compared to when I wore running shoes for racquetball. Fast shipping as well, what more can you ask for?

Excellent grip - I rely on my quickness a LOT as a tournament handball player. Gum rubber is the ONLY sole that I have any success with at all; this is probably my 7th or 8th pair of this model. I love them, would like a better color selection, though.

Wow. So cool. I bought the red/white/black ones. Seeing as these are my first court shoes, I can't compare it with other volleyball shoes but WOW. These shoes looked so sick. I got lots of complements from these shoes during practice and I had no trouble with them volleyball wise.

Zappos Rocks! I was completely blown away by the service and professionalism we received from Zappos. The shoes fit my daughter the first time. In addition, the young lady I spoke with followed up with a hand written, self-made card! We will be doing business again.

Perfect - I've been playing racquet sports for years (Racquetball for 10 years, and switched to squash last year), and thought hi-tops were the only way to go, since I have weak ankles. I was so wrong. These shoes are comfortable, light, and very safe (if you have week ankles) to wear. I'm about to buy another pair.

Great volleyball shoe - This replaces a Mizuno volleyball shoe that felt like bricks on my feet. These are soft yet supportive, very sticky on the floor. No hot spots after an entire day on the court.

I was very impressed with the ordering process and how quickly I received my shoes. The shoes fit great after a slight modification in the forefoot area. I took them to an outdoor retailer who was certified with Phil Oren's Fit System and had them stretch them to accommodate a bunion. I have run with Asics running shoes for a long time and wanted to try a court shoe for a weight training class, Body Pump. I removed the footbed that came with the shoe and inserted a Superfeet Trim-to-Fit footbed for proper arch support. The Gel-Rocket III has been great and I would purchase them again.

Ideal - These shoes are very lightweight and do allow a maximum potential of exercise to be fulfilled, however the short ankles for me were a little hard because they allowed me to hurt my ankle. I did not hurt my ankle, but running and stopping as a setter can hurt your ankles and the ankle support is a little too short. These shoes are durable and even months after I have begun to wear them, they still have excellent grip.

Perfect - I have been using Zappos over the past three years. It is much easier than going to the mall. Have such a variety of styles, and shoes are usually in stock.
