What tennis shoes should you get? The choice is seemingly endless. But this Babolat Propulse Fury 3 review impressed me.

Babolat Propulse Fury 3 Review

I am always on the lookout for a shoe with great comfort and stability. My knees are a bit worn down after playing tennis on hard courts for most of my life and many years of running, including marathons. So I am often looking for max support.

The Babolat Propulse Fury 3 impressed me with its comfort. They have increased the EVA Foam in the midsole, which, in addition to the Ortholite comfort foam insoles, creates some great cushioning for your foot.

I also could move fast in these shoes with good stability thanks to the Michelin premium rubber formula on the outsole that offers great traction. The durability also seems excellent and a six-month outsole durability guarantee backs the shoe.

Technical details

Upper: Power Belt technology locks in the heel and midfoot with an external shell for stability.
Midsole: EVA midsole has been increased from previous versions for good cushioning, support, and responsiveness under the foot.  KPRS-X offers increased shock absorption.
Outsole: Michelin’s premium rubber formula, with dense zones in high-wear regions and less density in strategic areas to cut down on weight.

Fit Details

Length: True
Width: Generous Medium
Arch: Medium
Break-in: Slight
Surface: Hard (all court
Durability Guarantee: Yes
Weight: 14.4 ounces (US size 10.5)

Summary

The Babolat Propulse Fury 3 has become my new favorite hard court tennis shoe. The cushioning is excellent. I get good grip on the tennis court and even after a two hour session my knees does not hurt. This shoe surprised me with awesome playability and fit for my feet. The break-in was pretty immediate and they also look great.

I don’t have anything negative to say about the new Babolat Propulse 3 all-court tennis shoes. They are just top notch for my feet and allow me to play pain-free.

I would like to nominate the BABOLAT PROPULSE FURY 3 for one of the best of 2023. I have tried all the new updates of the best selling shoes this year and I have to say, these are pretty sweet!

The FURY 3s are very well balanced shoe with great stability. A nice performing shoe all around. Cushioning is good, fit is medium, maybe a smidge generous compared to something like a Barricade. This shoe is a better performing shoe all-around to the Asics Court FF3, the Asics Resolution 9, the Adidas Barricade, or any Nike shoe made today. It feels a bit like a Diadora Blushield shoe in terms of cushion but like a Barricade in terms of stability. Closest shoe I can think of to compare it to might be the Diadora B.Icon – which is high praise in my book. I just got my pair, but so far, I like it a lot. Definitely a shoe to try out. Could be the best shoe of 2023!
