Wilson Amplifeel Tennis Shoe Review

by Jonas Eriksson
written by Jonas Eriksson

Wilson were kind enough to send me some Amplifeel shoes for testing. The Wilson Amplifeel tennis shoes is for sure a funky-looking shoe, taking inspiration from Air Jordans and other high-tops. If it’s good-looking or not is highly subjective of course. Same goes for how the shoe plays, but I hope my review can shine some light on pros and cons with the Wilson Amplifeel shoe that was previously tested …

Djokovic is back with new serve, new shoes, but same racquet

by Jonas Eriksson
written by Jonas Eriksson

Novak Djokovic came back to the tennis stage in fine form when he beat Dominic Thiem 6-1 6-2 at the Kooyong Classic. He showed up with a slightly different serve motion, new Asics shoes and desire to play tennis. Still the same racquet though. There was some speculation about a potential racquet chance when Djokovic was seen practicing with Agassi with a new HEAD racquet with 18×19 string pattern, but …

Rafael Nadal’s New Shoes

by Jonas Eriksson
written by Jonas Eriksson

Rafael Nadal has been endorsing the Nike Lunar Ballistec shoe for years but according to Nike he’s now switching to the new Nike Zoom Cage 3. Is he really though? Nadal is having a great season so far with his 15th Grand Slam and tenth Roland Garros title, alongside two Masters series titles (on clay of course). Wimbledon wasn’t as great a success, but he’s now gearing up for the US …

Roger Federer at the Hopman Cup

by Jonas Eriksson
written by Jonas Eriksson

The Roger Federer fan craze is bigger than ever and the Roger Federer brand is the number one in sports. Today he was back in action at the Hopman Cup and beat Daniel Evans in singles and won together with Belinda Bencic in the new format of mixed doubles (4-0 4-1). Here he is jumpman style, smashing a winner at Hopman cup (pun intended). Judging by an earlier post today, …

New year, new gear

by Jonas Eriksson
written by Jonas Eriksson

The ATP Tour version 2017 has kicked off in Doha, Brisbane and Chennai. First action I’ve seen is David Ferrer swinging his Babolat Pure Drive Plus against hothead Bernard Tomic using a Head Graphene XT Radical MP A (actually a HEAD TGT 260.5 pro stock model). Ferrer was steady while Tomic slightly less so and the Spaniard won 6-3 7-5. Both players wore pink tops (Ferrer wore a Lotto shirt and Tomic …

Babolat Propulse Fury

by Jonas Eriksson
written by Jonas Eriksson

The new Babolat Propulse Fury tennis shoe is here and it looks great in its feisty fluro red. The shoe comes equipped with a 6-month outsole durability guarantee, which you hopefully won’t need to use since it’s supposed to be very durable thanks to  S-Shield, Pro Shield and Soft Shield technology, which utilizes high-performance materials and localized reinforcements for greater durability. Talking about durability, Babolat has partnered with Michelin Performance …

Asics Gel Resolution 7 Tennis Shoes

by Jonas Eriksson
written by Jonas Eriksson

Finally my personal favourite among tennis shoes, the Asics Gel Resolution 6, has received an update with the Asics Gel Resolution 7. I have played with other versions of the Asics Gel Resolution too and they’ve all been good, with some slight differences in the fit of the shoe. What I really enjoy is the great mix of brilliant durability (compared to my other favourite shoe, the Nike Vapor Tour …

The Adidas Roland Garros Y3 Collection

by Jonas Eriksson
written by Jonas Eriksson

The Adidas Roland Garros Y3 Collection is revealed and it looks like a zebra. Nike usually plays it quite safe during the grand slams (giving Dimitrov a sleeveless shirt for the Australian Open was maybe not safe, just not thought through properly) but Adidas is trying a different approach for this French Open. Maybe they were inspired by H&M who got a lot of publicity for their Berdych gear that …

Nike Court Air Zoom Ultra Fly

by Jonas Eriksson
written by Jonas Eriksson

Nike Court Air Zoom Ultra Fly. (That’s a lot of names!) Is this really a tennis shoe? At 220 USD I damn well hope it is. It comes with the following technologies for extra swag: Pebax propulsion plates, hexagonal Zoom Air units, a Flyknit ankle cuff and herringbone outsole. To me, and this is my highly personal opinion, it looks slightly ridiculous. But…and this is a big but, does it perform? I’m …
