Customer Reviews ASICS Solution Speed FF 2 Tennis Shoe

I want to start off by saying that the original Solution Speed FF is my favorite tennis shoe of all time. I have worn 3 pairs of them and loved every single one. They were lightweight, supportive, and were miraculously comfortable out of the box. The Solution Speed FF 2 feels like some crude facsimile that is not even in the same design line. They were uncomfortable out of the box. Even after putting about 20 hours into the shoe, they still do not feel comfortable the way the original did. Additionally, whatever redesign of the cushioning actually makes my heels hurt. I had similar heel pain with the original Court FF Novak. At this point I cannot seem to find the original Solution Speeds anywhere in Men's, and I may try to buy the Women's as my equivalent size is in stock. I have given it two stars as it does indeed fulfill the requirements of being a shoe, however it is not a tennis shoe that I would want to wear again.

Sweaty feet from little circulation is less comfortable

the shoes were too narrow for my feet. They whould be offered in wide sizes.

The upper toe section is like a plastic cup. Every time I walked that section made a clicking sound and folded inward and hit the side of my foot; especially on the right foot. A pair of heavier socks helped a bit so I decided to try them on the court. The shoes seemed to get good traction. However, afterwards my feet and legs hurt for several hours. It seemed like the shoe sole did not have enough cushioning. I returned them and re-ordered my serving pair of Gel-Challengers; they work much better for me.

This shoe has been disappointing. It's a narrow shoe in my opinion. I've used this shoe 4-5 times and my feet continue to hurt. The upper sole is not very flexible and it gives me a slight rub on my little toe. I've had a solution model in the past and it was a better fit. I usually wear the resolutions and I'll def go back to them.

Are of improvement: Major complain about the shoes is that fabric liner inside shoes has very little grip, especially when slightly wet. The shoe slipped off from my foot a couple of times while changing movement direction even though the shoe was laced tight. The shoe would benefit from improved shape of the rubber sole to provide wider footprint for better stability. Highlights: Good grip on the hard court. The white and red color combination looks good.

An excellent "speed shoe" ranking right up there with the best of that genre (Nike Zoom Vapor Pro; adidas Ubersonic 4; and Lotto Mirage 100 come to mind). An excellent blend of cushioning and comfort. Far superior to the Resolution 8s which have issues with both heel slippage and the Dynawrap lacing system crushing some players feet IMO. On the other hand, perhaps not the best choice for bigger guys with flat feet - as I am. I would have liked the Speed FF to have better medial support and stability. As a result, I do not wear these shoes. Wish I had purchased the COURT FF instead which is much better in the stability department.

Stiff shoe, expected speed, agility but fail on both

Shoes are too stiff, soles are too hard, almost like ski boots. Toe box too small, smallest toe rubbed & hurt. Like all Asics shoes, these are too narrow in the mid-section, even though I have narrow feet causing overall foot ache. Right shoe make an annoying clicking sound. Returns were misleading and difficult.

I have purchased these shoes in March 2022, worn them about 20 times and the outer bands started separating from the shoe in the last few months. I contacted customer service and they said that it was out of warranty (by 10 days). I had an older pair of these sneakers that lasted for far far longer. Poor quality

horrible , bad fit . low quality . No breathability

I wore shoes around house seemed fine went to play tennis and they hurt the top of my right foot called ASICS and was told nothing they could do about it and I could not return product very poor service always have worn ASICS but will never buy again

I can't wear them as they have hot spots that pinch my foot in several places.
