Fits slightly larger - I ended up going 1/2 size down. Excellent support, ideal for tennis, super comfortable

I wear these shoes for pickleball and so far have found them to be very comfortable, and not at all stiff like my previous pair of shoes (another brand). You really can't go wrong with ASICS.

They don't disappoint- my 3rd pair of these gel style ASICS, light with great support and the mesh toe saves me a lot of toe nails just wish they would make more of them for clay.

Always use Asics for court shoes. They fit my feet the best. Shoes arrived on expected delivery date.

I bought these shoes not for tennis, but for working out. They provide fantastic side to side stability and are very durable. Great for cross fit. They color scheme is basic, but I’m working out, so not really an important aspect for me.
Great shoe.

I purchased the ASICS Gel-Challenger 13 to wear during pickleball and tennis matches. These tennis shoes provide excellent support, court grip, and breath easily. I am a long time user of ASICs for tennis. These shoes are perfect for me.
I'd also recommend:
Adidas, Nike, New Balance,

I have a very wide foot and other than Nike's 1.5 ballistics I couldn't find a Nike tennis shoe that fit comfortably. A friend of mine gave me my first pair of Asics and I instantly felt in love with them. This is my second pair and they fit as well as my first pair. I recently ordered my third pair and look forward to receiving them. Great tennis shoe!

It runs 1 size to large so size down, otherwise super comfy and durable tennis shoe. My son is wearing these and no others for his lessons since he started playing…

This shoe was a replacement for a worn out ASICS Gel show so I knew what I was getting into. The shoes arrived two (2) days early which was a pleasant surprise. The shoes are exactly what I expected - no surprises. For me, this is the best shoe for Tennis and Pickleball. Excellent shoe, highly recommended.

I have always had a difficult time breaking in new court shoes. Especially in Pickleball where there are lots of starts, stops and change of direction. I almost passed on the Gel-Challenger-13 because I thought the price was too low for this to be a quality shoe. Was I wrong! Not only was this shoe comfortable the first time I wore it but it required very little "break in".
