I bought these shoes to use on clay tennis courts and they didn’t disappoint.

I was hesitant to purchase another Asics for pickleball after my last pair squished my toes. But I went up a half size and these are working fine. I would still like a little more room in the toebox and removable insoles, so new ones can be added. All in all these are great for indoor play.

I have wide feet so ordered a 7 instead of 6.5 to give me a bit more width. The width is fine except for my baby toes. They were a bit sore after playing on the court for 2 hours. I'll have to experiment with sock thickness, and how tight to tie the shoe; I think I can work it out. They gave me good lateral support, unlike the running shoes I was using before. Overall, this is a comfortable shoe.

Wasn’t sure how to answer the question “too big or too small”…they we a little too narrow and about 3/4 inch too long. Very cute but just not the right style for my foot.

I needed indoor pickleball sneaks and these fit the bill. Good fit and stability, comfortable support. I generally wear 9-9 1/2, the 9 had plenty of toe room.

Loved the shoe and really wanted it to work but too narrow for my foot. I do order wide on occasion and would have traded but wide was not available in this shoe.

Overall decent shoes for the price. They are women's shoes but definitely masculine looking. I really needed new shoes or I may have sent them back. The inside is firm and does not provide much cushion. I would recommend these for the price only.

These are narrower in the toebox than the previous version of the same style. I sized up but then those were too big. Keeping them, but hoping they stretch out.

I love this shoe! It fits perfectly, not too loose, but roomy in the toes. I liked my first pair so much that I ordered the exact same kind when they finally wore out.

Shoes fit and feel great. Bought the shoes to wear to play badminton. I’m surprised at how much support and nicely they feel. Will definitely buy again.

These shoes are great for performance, just as I expect from my Asics shoes. However, I got the blue/pink ones and the colors are perhaps a touch more garish in person than on the screen - these are some BOLD colors. Also, the blue at the toe appears to be painted on instead of being made of a blue material - first time wearing them in a volleyball game I got a big 1" mark on the toe where I had scraped it on the ground - it basically scraped the color off and looks far from new already. However, I'm wearing them for the support and performance, not necessarily for the color. But be forewarned if you're buying them in that color scheme that they may start to look old quickly.

The shoes felt good for trainers, fit nicely but a big narrow/long, but I couldn't get past that the styling make me feel like I was wearing my mom's shoes. Didn't buy.

I got these shoes to play Pickleball in and they work well on the court. They are comfortable while gibing support and traction on the court.
