Bought these to play Pickleball and am very pleased. Comfortable, good width in toe box, seems true to size. I play pickleball on a basketball court and these shoes seem to have the right amount of stick from the tread. More ankle support than my previous shoes. Overall a winner for me.

This shoe is very comfortable and supportive. It's also attractive on the foot with both athletic wear as well as street clothes.

The shoes are stiff right out of the box. They became comfortable after weeks of wearing. Gives plenty of support for movement on the court.

They are stiff and not much cushion. Less arch support than I expected, too. I've worn Asics for several years and some have better foot beds than this pair does.

Started wearing them on 20 Nov 24, and what a memorable journey it wasall 35.5 hours of it (shoutout to my Apple Watch for commemorating this historic milestone). The sole, clearly had big dreams of early retirement because it completely busted in record time. Shoe durability - 0
As a long-time devotee of the Solution Speed FF 2 (18 pairs , may they rest in peace), I reluctantly decided to try a new model, Gel-Game 9an extraordinary exercise in disappointment.
Lets start with the "support" or the lack of it. Compared to the Solution Speed FF 2, it feels like this shoe skipped leg day. Then theres the shoelaces, so short, they practically beg you to give up on double knots. Who needs a secure fit when you can have shoelace minimalism?
And the sole? The less said, the better. The groove lines started fading after just 1.5 hours of playing. For regular tennis players who hit the court 3-4 times a week, these shoes will give you the unique experience of constant replacement shopping.
In summary, the Gel-Game 9 is my most short-lived pair of tennis shoes to date. I cannot, in good conscience, recommend these to anyone who plays tennis with any regularity. But if youre looking for more shoe shopping, this might just be your perfect match.

I have a high arch and for some reason these shoes dont have as much depth as all the others asic shoes Ive owned, and Ive owned a lot. Other than that they look nice.

The 7 was too small and the 7.5 is too big, I played a few games in this and my feet were hurting by the end of it. :( Sadly, didnt workout for me.

Great shoe but fell apart very quickly. The glue on the front right came apart where the rubber sole met the shoe mesh material. I have only had these shoes for a month-ordered sept 1st FINALLY arrived sept 16. They look great and felt great but after only a month of wearing them two times a week the rubber is coming away from the seam on one shoe and it will only be a matter of time before it gets worse and worse. Very disappointed because really liked this shoe.

I ordered and was not disappointed. The shoe fits snug, but it is true to size and I'm sure it will stretch with use. Overall, it is very comfortable for playing on the courts. The white and silver/grey looks pretty..

Ive been a ASICS consumer for many years. For the first time I am extremely disappointed. I still have a couple of pairs that I bought years ago and are in good condition. This pair though, started to tear one month into the use. I play 4-5 times a week, so if you play a few times a month in a beginners level, sure these might last longer for you. Otherwise, do not buy these.

Love these white mesh ASICS. Im glad I rem-embered to size up 1/2 to a 10 to accommodate my inserts & wide toe box. The fit is great without looking front-wide. Im a repeat fan of ASICS.

I really wanted to like these shoes for tennis because so many are bulky and stiff, but these ran too narrow for me, so I had to return. So many people I play with say that Asics run narrow. Would love to see its shoe designers design a wide fit, especially since most people wear thicker socks for sports.
