The Right Tennis Shoes Will Make You Rock
For tennis players, whether professional or not, the right equipment is very important. If you don’t have a good racquet, you won’t be able to play to the max and we can say the same about tennis balls.
With the right tennis equipment you feel comfortable, play stronger and keep it up longer. However, probably the most important items are your tennis shoes. As in tennis there is a lot of foot work involved, the shoes must be comfortable, flexible and durable and they must be able to support your feet -especially the side of your feet- during the play with all the stops and starts you make. Each playing surface has differing requirements on your tennis shoes.
What to look for when you buy tennis shoes.
It is vital that the tennis shoes fit perfectly in order to give maximum comfort. Your feet should feel comfortably without any stretching, the heel must not slip and you need around half an inch of space between the end of the shoe and the longest toe.
As your feet are not exactly the same you should pick the size of the shoes according to your larger foot. Because much of your movements on the tennis court are from side to side, lateral support is essential in the shoes. Other points to check are flexibility and shock absorption.
