So while my pair of clay VP2 is in transit, I went to the nearest Tennis-Point store yesterday. Initially just to get my racquets restrung. But... I ended up buying this whole outfit...
Here's a little review of the VP2 after 2.5 hours of play : They don't feel that much heavier on feet than the OG VP. The upper is softer and more flexible. It moves more naturally with your foot. They feel TTS lengthwise but they fit is roomier than the VP1. There is more padding inside so for me it's a step up in comfort but the tradeoff was containment. The lacing system didn't give me the lockdown I had from the previous VP, but once I tied the laces harder, it was ok. The air zoom unit in the forefoot is not game changing for me but I could feel a small amount of added cushioning. They still feel low to the ground. I played on a rough and abrasive hard court and I already tore the upper around the ankle collar. But that's juste the way a play. I run everywhere and slide a lot on defensive shots. The good news is the rubber reinforcement on the inside of the toe box.
It seems pretty durable. I used to make holes in the Vapor 9/9.5... I also tried the Vapor 11 in store. They look way better than the VP2 and were really confortable but I made a couple of runs and lateral movements and they felt too heavy and bulky for my taste. I had the feeling that they made me stand more on my heels than on my toes. Sorry for the long post. Feel free if you have any other questions ! Cheers
