This is second pair. First pair fit great, and comfortable, but this pair didn’t come close. So opted for diff Ascics tennis shoe

I usually wear ASICS shoes as an everyday sneaker and love them. However, the toe box in this shoe (which is a tennis shoe) is too tight. I love the color and the rest of the shoe fit, but simply the toe is just too tight.

The fit and look of the shoe was great but the material on the front of the shoe does not allow for any airflow. My feet got super hot during the match.

I'm a long-time asics shoe athlete. These by far have been the worst based solely on how quickly they wore out and started to degrade. The outer plastic on one shoe ripped after only two weeks of play (3x a week) and the soles went bald faster than any other pair I've owned. Three months is way too soon to be buying a new pair. I'll keep buying asics, just not these.

I have worn Asics tennis shoes for years. These are a terrible fit. One pair I ordered were big these were too small.
Absolutely no quality control anymore. I found my old style online and bought them.
I guess I will be finding a new brand of tennis shoe.

Asics usually fit my foot perfectly but the Gel-8 was too narrow. The shoe was too stiff. The heel slipped; It would've caused a blister. I returned them.

The toe box was too narrow and constricting. Sorry about that--I have to return them.

My gel 7’s are fantastic. These 8’s were too big and uncomfortable.

The shoe is great looking, but the toe box is huge. It is pointed, unlike other Asics I own. Thus, the shoe has a ton of extra space in the toe which makes it unstable for me.

Style was okay if fit had been comfortable. Way too narrow in toe box. Shoe laces too short, also. Have to send back.

It's too long (since when is an 8 Euro 39.5?) and the material feels awful, like a plastic shoe so can't offer critique of support and comfort. So disappointed, need pickleball shoe asap!

These shoes had no cushioning. It was as though the insole was made of a piece of plywood. Horrible. Sent them back the next day. Have worn Asics for years. Not sure where or how these fit into this normally great fitting and cushioning shoes.
I'd also recommend:
Have only worn Asics for years. Now I am not sure. Will have to try some other brands, but have
