A comfortable, well-built tennis shoe can I improve your game

Hot, tired, uncomfortable tennis feet are not life’s natural condition. They could by the consequence of badly designed tennis shoes. The kind you’re probably suffering with right now. I have a word of advice: Improve your game. Change shoes.

I designed my shoe to help keep me winning

I mean that literally. For six months I worked helping to design and test a shoe that, not only would keep a woman’s feet free from discomfort match after match, but would help improve her speed and game.

We put extra padding around the ankle and on the tongue.

We stitched all double layers of fabric together, instead of gluing them. So the shoe breathes and stays cool.

We angle cut the heel and raised the heel padding just enough to throw your center of gravity onto the ball of your foot. You get faster starts. quicker turns.

We gave your toes more room to help your balance.

We built in a firmer innersole.( A soft, squishy ride is not best for your game. Or your feet.)

We designed a concave outer sole to help my reaction time. Now you can wear not only a comfortable shoe, but a very fast shoe. One that I wear in tournament after tournament.

I endorse this shoe because I believe that if the shoe is comfortable, and if you win games with it, you should by satisfied with it. I’m satisfied.
