Looks like Alcaraz is wearing the Vapor Pro (1) in VP2 colorway/paintjob (lol) reminiscent of other Nike pros who didn't move to new shoes in the past.
I can't find a good picture of Sinner but it looks like it's the Vapor 11 with a different tongue? I think there were photos here earlier in...
I've found that Lacoste runs a size bigger than what I typically wear in Nike (I know it sounds crazy but believe me!) so whereas I'm a L in Nike in practically everything, I'm mostly and M (FR4) in Lacoste (except the 65-35 Cotton/Poly tees which shrink too much and a L/FR5 is perfect after a...
Perhaps I'm mis-remembering from my youth and their performance, but does anyone else want the original breathe free to retro? The II (air max as opposed to zoom) are great as well but something about these I always loved:
I don't think there will be a whole separate shoe at first for ON--it seems like the 'Roger' is their main tennis shoe for now and maybe they'll just make tweaks to design and remove 'R' branding for Ben/Iga. Or maybe they may pull the Jordan-esque playbook of having RF on everything but we'll...
I thought that as well and was struggling to find pics becasue not all players wore them--but indeed I found this pic of Rublev wearing them at Miami. There was also a white based PE that was really slick that I think Fritz wore on occasion.
Just ordered a pair of the 9.5 Tours as they just released--we'll see what they're like in hand.
Also does anyone know what tournament these Vapor Pros are from? They're navy/gold promo color and I can't place what tournament they were for.
I've gotten a chance to play more in the VPro 2's as well as the Vapor 11: my somewhat scathing review of the Pro 2 originally has softened as the shoes have definitely broken in and aren't as stiff. So far though I actually like the Vapor 11 better and am glad I've started stocking up. They're...
Just played in my clay court vapor pro 2's tonight and can say not a big fan after first wear. Didn't feel like there was much cushioning (and I'm not even picky about it compared to most) and overall just felt kinda stiff without much performance. I'll wear a couple more times but not exactly...
Based on my two pairs, I don't believe so. The Vapor X had a different upper for the clay version ( a tighter knit as opposed to the mesh) but haven't seen any differences in recent models I've tried after those.
They run a little bit longer in my experience but not so much that you *need* to size down. Some folks do but in general you can keep your same size if you feel it's right.; I'm a US12 in both.
