You would think the memory foam on the sides inside my sock would do the trick? But it doesnt as that ridge between insole and upper pinches greatly im literally spilling over the sides of the shoe Would a custom extremely wide insole which goes up the walls of the upper may work if it is sturdy enough on the other side so the ridge cant pinch through the insole?
Received these late today and hit for about 30 minutes with them on before it got dark. I was shocked how comfy they were out of the box. My only beef so far are the cheap and short laces they come with. I immediately replaced them with bubble laces
Great review Zach. I am waiting for the FF3 review before deciding which to go for. I am currently in the FF2s and have loved them ( my best playing shoe I have ever bought).
After watching your review of the 8's, I bought two pairs. It's a great shoe, and its durability is second to none. I used to play with Nike's and bought a pair every three months or so. Being a speed moving player, they used to break down after a few sessions. A year ago and after the GP turbo's were discontinued for men (why the heck someone at Nike thought it's a good idea, I will never understand), I decided to switch to Asics, playing 3 times a week, both pairs are still in great condition. Thank you! Was thinking on adding another pair to my rotation, but unfortunately it doesn't seem like the 9's are much of an upgrade imo. Coming from basketball, I have a tendency to like these b-ball inspired shoes like the GP's and the new NB Coco's. Finding similar comfort to the GP's is now a quest of mine😆. I also would love to admit that I like the 8's design a bit more than the 9's. Keep up the good work! 🤘
Nike used to be run by athletes for athletes. Its now run by suits for short-term profits... Also they seem to be deprioritizing tennis in a major way, was upon a time tennis was a cornerstone of the company next to running and bball
@@hudsons6006 I love the shoes but they are not as plush as the Turbos. I managed to get a couple more pairs of Turbos so now I train in them and play matches in the Resolutions.
i am deciding res9 and ff3, and i have tried both on my feet. the res9 is very comfy and the ff3 is quite tight on the ankle and squezzing my feet from the back. seems like i might lean on the res9
My son wore Asics juniors for years with pleasure. When he switched to the GR8, the problems started. He got severe blisters on his heel, even after months with taping. Now he's trying other brands like Diadora Blushield Torneo, Yonex Eclipsion 4 and Lotto Hyperpulse Raptor. Still curious about the new Asics, because they make good shoes.
Asics themselves claim that they developed the Resolution line for maximum movement side to side (designed for the baseline game) while they designed the Court FF line for maximum playability moving side to side AND up and back (designed for the Djokovic all-court game with the help of Novak). Would you agree with this?
Just bought a pair and had to return them because they are WAY too narrow. I have always worn a 14 EE from New Balance, but tried the Asics to prevent supination ankle rolls, and they have a 2E width, but it doesn't mean the same thing for ASICS as it does New Balance. Why the toe box of most shoes is a V shape, I will never understand. I can't be the only person whose big toe is on the medial side of his foot!
Kudos to you Zach. This is one of the best most complete and exhaustive reviews I've seen as you literally take the shoe apart. I have not seen that anywhere else. I currently have the 8s and wear orthotics as I have flat feet. In the hard court version I'm a 11.5 US size and in the clay version I'm a 12 US size. Despite your rave review on this shoe I'm still unsure about moving to the 9s. This is because I have heard several people on tennis talk complain about feeling pain in the sides of their feet after a few hours of play due to the Dynawall enhancement that apparently makes the shoe feel a bit narrower on the sides. I used to have that feeling with the old Nike Air Cage (Nadal's shoe) so don't want to go down that route again. Also the worst thing is I can't really try them and then turn them back after a few hours of play because the sides of my feet are sore (if you see what I mean). This being the case I heard that Adics have brought out a wide version. Given what I've described above I have two questions: 1. Should I go for the wide version in both hard court and clay? 2. Should I opt for the same sizes I'm currently wearing in the 8s? Many thanks in advance for your advice and tips. PS. I'm the equivalent of a 5.0+ player in Europe but at 45 I'm beginning to become more particular about comfort especially on hard courts.
If you are comfortable in the 8 even with an insert then I would think the 9 would be better- I haven’t tried the clay version but I’ve never changed sizes between them in the past - it’s still a resolution so I usually stick with sizing until it dosent work for me anymore but I couldn’t say for sure without looking at your foot
@Foot Doctor Zach Thanks Zach for your instant reply. Really appreciate it. Given my current differentiated size set up with the 8s that works very well would you recommend I do the same thing with the 9s? Also should I try the wide version of the 9s or the regular version?
I have flat feet and wear custom inserts and have been using the 8s for the last year or so (11.5 in the HARD version and 12 in the CLAY version) and they've held up pretty well so far. I could stretch them another year but I'm looking to switch to the 9s. Tennis Warehouse recommended I go up half a size in both versions due to the dynawall foam occupying more of the sides of the shoe and up into the heel area. Also as I'm in Europe can only really choose the standard width (note: even if the Wide version does arrive I heard it will only ever be available for the HARD outsole model). With the reviews I've seen I'm also considering the FF3's but I am firmly leaning towards the 9s because the stability seems to be better (the outsole surface has a wider contact area than the FF3) and this is paramount for me because I'm a tall lean player with previous ankle injuries so I need a shoe that feels very stable. I'm the equivalent of a 5.0 + player (45 year old male player) training once a week with semi pro juniors and the rest of the time with very good club players. I play on average 3x per week. I haven't tried either shoe yet but would you agree on my thoughts regarding stability between the two shoes?

Hi there, genuine technical question. I have a pair of gel resolution 9 myself, which i love. I also have an extra pair of Footprint custom insoles, since im also a skateboarder (33yo) looking to take care of whats left of his feet and minimizing impacts . I’ve molded my footprints into my Resolution 9. Feels good at first glance. I am just wondering: Knowing all that you know, do you believe i am doing a dis-service to a well designed shoe? Is the shock absorbing technology of the footprint actually counter productive with the intentions of a well thought tennis shoe ( bounce / speed etc). I’d be curious to have your opinion on this. Thank you x 1000s, regardless if you answer or not, your video inputs and reviews have been very valuable in taking care of my feet anyhow.
I don’t think thick strobels or shock absorbing insoles really do much to the performance of a shoe - more adds to it- I just did the bicon 2 which has a similar feature built into them and although it makes the tests look worse , the performance is the same so if it’s me I’m not worrying about it
just pulled a trigger on these from tennis point (their LE version which i found to have the best colors, imho). they were/are running 25% off on these + whatever % markdown it already had. came out to $93+tax. was picking between these and adidas cybersonics or barricades, but this review and the "top 5" sold me on these. will report back once i get them and try them on. thanks, Doc!
wanted to follow up a year later in 2024. still my go-to shoe this season. just scored another brand-new pair on ebay for $90+tax and hoping they last close to a year or so. couldn't be happier with these.
The worst downside is that the upper eyelet get worn out by the shoelaces. It happens quiet quickly, approximately in a pair of months using them for approximately 15 hours each month.
Thanks doc, was looking forward to your review on this. Hope the reviews on FF3 and Cybersonic are coming soon! Which do you like the best out of these 3? Which is the fastest?
These seem all most perfect. Would these see benefit from insoles? been having arch pain recently with wilson rush pro 3.0. MOVE Game day pro or game day is in consideration. lower arch feet too
Congrats on the 100k, mate! Just a heads up that New Balance just dropped the BB Fresh Foam today. I was totally unaware that they were making a basketball shoe with Fresh Foam. Curious to hear what you have to say about them eventually if possible.
Zach, You suggest longer laces for the Gel Res 9s if you want to use the runner knots on the shoe - which I do as I use insoles and what to prevent heel slippage. Can you tell me what LEGTH shoelace you suggest to keep me from having to guess (and return a bunch)?
The general reviews on the Vapor Pro 2 have not been good. Same with the Vapor 11s. I am guessing all the new Asics will rate better than anything Nike currently - Diadora better than that.
I could never get a good forefoot lockdown with Asics. I have a medium width foot, but there always seems to be too much room in the toe. I injured both of my big toenails because of poor fit. I don’t think the hard material helped either. Currently wearing Lacoste.
Love your videos man. I'm a tennis coach and have made all of my shoe orders based off your reviews. Not to mention, i've gotten all of my coworkers to watch your videos AND my students. Your content is unparalleled. I need solid information across many different areas for my tennis shoe as I coach for several hours a day, and need to keep up my foot health to compete as well. I've recently been getting a lot of heel pain around the outside of my heel, the ball of my heel exactly. It burns and I'm incredibly stiff. I have a wide flat foot and general go for a 2e in the gels. Would you recommend the powerstep insoles for this type of heel pain? What are your thoughts? A friend of mine said it might be bone spurs or achilles tendinosis.
I've also got flat feet and just posted something @tennisfit40. I also wear orthotics by the way. I bought them in Belgium and wouldn't trade them for anything as the guy who made them for me does most of the orthotic soles of the pro players at the French Open in particular. They are really second to none and last for about 6 years. I'm in my 5th year. Hope Zach replies to me because I'm very unsure about moving to the 9s given what I shared in my post.
Great review, got a pair of 2E's today, I can really feel the top of the dynawall on the outside of both feet, its pretty uncomfortable just walking around. I do not want to chance playing in them as i wont be able to return them. Will these break in, or would a pair of orthotics sort it out? Really appreciate any feedback.
Zach - what’s the most cushion/comfortable tennis shoe? Coming off a medial tibia grade 2 stress reaction that’s taking a while to heal (post 3 months). I have a pair of gel 9s, Babolat propulse fury 3, vapor cage 4 and a Diadora b icon 2. Trying to decide on which ones to keep/try. You’re advice is much appreciated. I willing to try 2 of the 4. What would be your picks for comfort and shock absorption.
FYI, Zach the B icons feel certainly more comfortable than any of the shoes I listed above. I think it might be the shoe for me but interested in your thoughts.
My width of my bottom foot is 4.35 inches so i ordered the wide version. My foot is around 11 inches so I ordered an 11 for the size, hoping the wide doesn’t affect the fit. I hope I ordered the right pair!!
Was there any break in period, and if there was, how long did it take to break them in? Also how long would it take to make the arch support fit more a flat arch instead of their listed medium arch, or would it be better to get different insoles (which ones would you reccomend)?
I have to say, coming from the Gel Res 8 I'm incredibly disappointed in the 9s. The new upper is so stretchy that my forefoot slides out over the front lateral side of the shoe. It's impossible for me to feel locked down in these shoes without tying them so tight that my feet hurt. Asics also reduced the cushion in the forefoot. The 8s we're super comfy, and these hurt the ball of my foot. I've had to put aftermarket orthotics in the 9s to make them playable. Hoping that I wear through these pretty fast so I can try going down a half size to see if it resolves the problems. Overall, I'd call these a pretty big downgrade from the 8s which are in my top 3 favorite shoes of all time.
hey there - i'm facing a similar issue where i feel like the shoes have problem locking down especially around the ankle area, i just don't feel like its giving the snug sensation on my feet. Did going down half a size solve the issue for you?
Great review! I typically wear Brooks Adrenaline GTS 22 for support with no foot pain. But I'm having trouble finding court shoes with support. Any suggestions?
After using Nike Air Zoom GP Turbo for 2 years, I had to look for alternate shoes as Nike discontinued this model. I bought Gel Resolution 9 2022 model 2 months back. After playing for 2 to 5 hours per day, I feel there is sufficient heel and ankle support. But started getting toe pain and feels like I am running on bare toes. Now again started looking for alternate Nike Air Zoom GP Turbo.
What has happened to Asics? I use to be able to play tennis for hours on an Asics Gel Resolution and not feel any pain. Now, the sole of my foot feels like it was beaten up. This shoe offers almost zero cushioning. After 2 hours of playing, I can hardly walk. I've given up using it. Shifted to the Babolat SFX -- rate one of the top most comfortable tennis shoes. It's cheaper too.
Great great video!!! I’m an eager user of the Resolution since their first edition and was looking for the drop of the shoe which I asked to Asics as well with no answer. So, thanks a lot for revealing that info!!!! One question: what do you think should be the average duration (hours of play) of this shoe before changing pair, I mean for an average 4.5 player???
Thanks very much another great review. I am between Asics Gel Resolution 9 and Mizuno Wave Force Tour 5. What's your opinion? Currently I am using Nike Air Zoom GP Turbo since September 2021 which I enjoy very much for their cushioning however after almost 2 years their sole is now breaking apart gradually bu slowly. So soon they will put to rest. I already have a pair of Nike Court Zoom Vapor Cage 4 Rafa that I purchased last Christmas and haven't yet used them and I was thinking either to use the Rafa or go for either the Gel Revo 9 or the Mizuno.
Hello thank you for the in depth dive into the shoe! I'm wondering if this is a good shoe for somebody who's recovering from a ruptured plantar fascia (a little over 2 months of recovery in, not in a boot anymore, but need arch support insoles to walk around). Thank you for your time!
hey @FootDoctorZach love the videos as always i am a regular subscriber and watcher. i have a question about the nike vapor 11 and the new pro tennis shoes. are these new versions better than the previous version of the vapor pros, or the cage 3s which are the ones i have now. i have a pretty average shape foot. i am looking to buy some new shoes. thanks for all your help.
I wonder what Tiafoe is playing on in Dallas? I don’t think Nike will be able to resist marketing something and simultaneously have Tiafoe wear the GP Turbo to remind us have-nots. Whatever he wears, I’ll be likely to buy. The GP is a stellar shoe, I learned about late.
Hi Zach, Do you think hi-top or 3/4 tennis sneakers would make sense? Lots of players seem to be rolling their ankles and straps are kind of a pain to deal with. Thanks
Just out of interest what level do you play at? I'm considering switching to the 9s(I'm currently using the 8s) because in my humble opinion it's the best shoe for stability. I had ankle issues in the past, went to the barricades till the 5th version then switched to Asics GR series and never looked back. If Monfils endorses them who was so prone to ankle injuries then that says a lot. I'm the European equivalent of a 5.0+ player (45 years old male player who wants a stable and comfy shoe and the 8s have not dissapointed).
Great video. Asics are great, but uknown largely. I'd really be interested in an Asics series - Kayano Gel vs. Nimbus vs Cloud etc ... and which has the Bset gel cushioning (i've always wondered that) etc .. including older classic models too. Think that would be a great series! Waverider 10's are classics!
Hey Doc do you think you could possibly review some shoes from crossover culture? There where some reviews b4, but they ran out of stock but now back with new models and wanted to know what you thought of them. Especially the varisty as there no reviews on the type of outsole the shoes uses. Thank you for all the work and hope you doing well.
A very informative review of the Gel Resolution 9. For the past year, I've been in an adidas Barricade. I've been very tempted to try the Gel Resolution line because of the good reviews such as this . I was curious about the sizing, I wear size 7.5 w/ 4" width (is that wide?), and I currently use a Game Day pro insole by Move. Should I go with a size 8? or true to size? Should I consider a wide? I also have a high-ish arch. It sounds like the shoe is on the narrow side. Thanks in advance for your input. Your channel is one of the best (if not the best).
Thank you- not sure about sizing as i havent seen your foot and i dont make sizing recs without seeing the foot but theres an entire fit section you can check out to make your decision - i didnt go up a size for orthotics in these personally
@@FootDoctorZach Thank Dr. Zach. I went true to size including with the Move Game Day Pro insole. After a good play session, the fit was just right. I had to use the runners knot to secure my heel due to the higher height bc of the added insole. Great shoe. Period. Keep up the good work.
I wore the Gel Resolution 8 but after some weeks, the foam really made shoe tend sideways. If they were just laying around they turned slightly inside and I don’t know if that’s good or not. I okay collegiate tennis and broke the complete sole (it deattached) after 6 weeks. Is that normal?
Wondering how much better these will be vs the Gel Resolution 8s. The 8s tore my feet up - the lack of cushioning in the forefoot caused major issues for me. The balls of my feet hurt so bad that people started asking me if my feet were bothering me as I played. I ended up pivoting to the Nike Zoom Court NXT in hopes that the cushioning in the forefoot would help and thankfully it did. So I'm very hesitant to try the Asics line again as the resulting foot pain from the 8s lasted for a good 3-4 months until it finally healed completely.
If you had that much of a problem in the 8 I dunno if the 9 is going to be THAT much of a difference - you just probably don’t match with the last of the shoe
@FootDoctorZach I want to like these shoes so badly, but the shoe has some issues I need to address. First, as you mentioned, if you use orthotics, you are forced to swap out the laces and the ones the come with the shoe are not nearly long enough to use the Runner's Knot eyelet to secure the heel in place and keep it from slipping. So now trying them WITHOUT orthotics to see if I can get a better fit and hoping there shoe is stable enough for those of us that are big over-pronators with flat feet. Next, is the issue of the "Dyna-Wrap" strap across the ball of my big toe. Ouch! Does this break in over time? Did you have issues with this strap being quite painful at the base of your big toe, or is it just me? Is there a trick to lacing these shoes that helps with that? Finally, there is the issue of cushioning. I was drawn to this shoe based on reviews like yours and the promise of "Best in Class" cushioning yet these feel pretty firm to me underfoot. I need proper cushioning due to some ball of foot pain and the Gel Res 9 is supposed to be excellent for that. Again, do these break-in over time and get any better? I would be very grateful for some feedback here as I am trying to find something better in terms of cushioning than my Adidas Barricade 2023 and Lacoste AG LT-23s (both now discontinued) but with equal stability for my ankle tendons and quickness to compensate for my 275 lb frame. The Gel Res 9s seemed to check a lot of the boxes I was looking for on paper. Do I need to stick with the Gel Res 9s as they get better in time, or is this the wrong shoe for me?
@@FootDoctorZach I must admit that K-Swiss has not been on my radar AT ALL for the last 15 years. I always found their shoes way too clunky. That said, I'll be your huckleberry here and give them a try. Love the AG LT-23 but could use a bit more cushioning in the forefoot for me (even with an orthotic), I could not seem to get good lockdown with the Elcipsion 5, loved the Wave Enforce Tour but the midsole stack was a little too high and unstable for my ankles, Solematch Control 2 felt good walking in them but hurt my aches with orthotics on the court, and then you have my report of the Gel Res 9 above. I have tried everything else in your Top 5.
Hey Zach, how is going? I'm writing you from Italy 🇮🇹 Unfortunately, I have a bursitis metatarsal with a lot of pain when I play tennis or Padel. I'm looking for a pair of tennis shoes cushioned in that area with a wide wide plant. Do you have any recommendations? I'm using Nike zoom x invincible every day but I can't use them to play tennis 🤣 Thanks a lot
Hey, all your videos are really interesting. Could you please give me an advice? I'm confuse about which Gel-resolution 8 size to get, I have 43EU, I keep reading that for Tennis shoes it's advisable get half number up, the point is that Asics make 42.5 or 43.5, I guess I need to go for the 43.5 but at the same time I'm worried that eventually they will become too lose. Any thoughts? Thank you
Hi Doc, how would this model compare to the GR8 in the ankle sprainer category? I’m still suffering occasional ankle sprains with the GR8, been wondering if it’s worth the upgrade. I’m a chronic ankle sprainer unfortunately
I understand your rankings but I use a custom orthotic and feel like the foot feels much more comfortable in the nike Vapor 9.5. Is there a reason why? The foot seems to not have any lock down in the gel resolution 9
Will you consider using the URS to retroactively rate shoes that came out in the last year? It could be a quick compilation video, and we can look to the rest of your videos for more in-depth analysis. Then you'll rapidly have a good repository of ratings for the URS. Thanks for your content if you see my suggestion!
How does the impact protection on these compare to basketball shoes? Big man here playing pickleball and basketball. I wear out the bball shoes soooooooo quickly. 6’5 240 lbs, super arthritic ankle, so go for max impact pro. Normally wear gt jump.
Just curious if the fit is true to size or not. I wear 2e in new balance running shoes and the hoka brand. These shoes seem to fit my needs, but having wide feet can make things complicated

Hi, any sugestions for wide foot, high arch and comfortable shoes? Thanks
Could you do a comparison of the gel res 9 wides and gel res 8 wides for a comparison on which is wider from the forefoot to the midfoot please?
I have diagnosed the issue where by it seems the gap between where the insole ends meets the upper there is a gap and that gap pinches on the side of my foot underneath on the medial side
I have an outline of it across the side of my foot
Is there any workable way to get it to stop doing thst?
I tried wrapping memory foam insole around the side of my foot inside my sock to create cushion but the ridge between the insole and upper gap still pinches through the cushion memory foam.
It is baffling
Are there any tricks i could try?
As mentioned it isnt viable for me to just return it and go half a size up i can only get the wides in america or asia so if i go half a size up next time the problem may still be there.
You would think the memory foam on the sides inside my sock would do the trick? But it doesnt as that ridge between insole and upper pinches greatly im literally spilling over the sides of the shoe
Would a custom extremely wide insole which goes up the walls of the upper may work if it is sturdy enough on the other side so the ridge cant pinch through the insole?

Great review Zach. I am waiting for the FF3 review before deciding which to go for. I am currently in the FF2s and have loved them ( my best playing shoe I have ever bought).
Coming out of vapor pro, first session with the gel 9, level of performance is outstanding, like day and night seriously amazing shoes
After watching your review of the 8's, I bought two pairs. It's a great shoe, and its durability is second to none. I used to play with Nike's and bought a pair every three months or so. Being a speed moving player, they used to break down after a few sessions. A year ago and after the GP turbo's were discontinued for men (why the heck someone at Nike thought it's a good idea, I will never understand), I decided to switch to Asics, playing 3 times a week, both pairs are still in great condition. Thank you!
Was thinking on adding another pair to my rotation, but unfortunately it doesn't seem like the 9's are much of an upgrade imo.
Coming from basketball, I have a tendency to like these b-ball inspired shoes like the GP's and the new NB Coco's. Finding similar comfort to the GP's is now a quest of mine😆. I also would love to admit that I like the 8's design a bit more than the 9's. Keep up the good work! 🤘
Any luck finding a replacement for the Nike GP turbos? I’m in same boat as you. Live the GP cushion. Maybe the new balance Lav 2?
I’m on my last pair of Turbos and ordered these today. Hope I can get close to the comfort. The Turbos were just the best shoe ever for my feet.
Nike used to be run by athletes for athletes. Its now run by suits for short-term profits... Also they seem to be deprioritizing tennis in a major way, was upon a time tennis was a cornerstone of the company next to running and bball
@@talon229 any updates, how do they compare?
@@hudsons6006 I love the shoes but they are not as plush as the Turbos. I managed to get a couple more pairs of Turbos so now I train in them and play matches in the Resolutions.
i am deciding res9 and ff3, and i have tried both on my feet. the res9 is very comfy and the ff3 is quite tight on the ankle and squezzing my feet from the back. seems like i might lean on the res9
These are a great update to the best line in tennis. Noticeably more cushioned than the 8, which I liked.
Need a Court FF 3 review, doc! Undecided on Gel Resolution 9 vs Court FF 3
My son wore Asics juniors for years with pleasure. When he switched to the GR8, the problems started. He got severe blisters on his heel, even after months with taping.
Now he's trying other brands like Diadora Blushield Torneo, Yonex Eclipsion 4 and Lotto Hyperpulse Raptor.
Still curious about the new Asics, because they make good shoes.
Asics themselves claim that they developed the Resolution line for maximum movement side to side (designed for the baseline game) while they designed the Court FF line for maximum playability moving side to side AND up and back (designed for the Djokovic all-court game with the help of Novak). Would you agree with this?
Resolution 9 yeah, haven’t played in the FF3 enough yet to make a comment
Just bought a pair and had to return them because they are WAY too narrow. I have always worn a 14 EE from New Balance, but tried the Asics to prevent supination ankle rolls, and they have a 2E width, but it doesn't mean the same thing for ASICS as it does New Balance. Why the toe box of most shoes is a V shape, I will never understand. I can't be the only person whose big toe is on the medial side of his foot!
Kudos to you Zach. This is one of the best most complete and exhaustive reviews I've seen as you literally take the shoe apart. I have not seen that anywhere else.
I currently have the 8s and wear orthotics as I have flat feet. In the hard court version I'm a 11.5 US size and in the clay version I'm a 12 US size.
Despite your rave review on this shoe I'm still unsure about moving to the 9s. This is because I have heard several people on tennis talk complain about feeling pain in the sides of their feet after a few hours of play due to the Dynawall enhancement that apparently makes the shoe feel a bit narrower on the sides. I used to have that feeling with the old Nike Air Cage (Nadal's shoe) so don't want to go down that route again. Also the worst thing is I can't really try them and then turn them back after a few hours of play because the sides of my feet are sore (if you see what I mean).
This being the case I heard that Adics have brought out a wide version. Given what I've described above I have two questions:
1. Should I go for the wide version in both hard court and clay?
2. Should I opt for the same sizes I'm currently wearing in the 8s?
Many thanks in advance for your advice and tips.
PS. I'm the equivalent of a 5.0+ player in Europe but at 45 I'm beginning to become more particular about comfort especially on hard courts.
If you are comfortable in the 8 even with an insert then I would think the 9 would be better- I haven’t tried the clay version but I’ve never changed sizes between them in the past - it’s still a resolution so I usually stick with sizing until it dosent work for me anymore but I couldn’t say for sure without looking at your foot
@Foot Doctor Zach Thanks Zach for your instant reply. Really appreciate it. Given my current differentiated size set up with the 8s that works very well would you recommend I do the same thing with the 9s?
Also should I try the wide version of the 9s or the regular version?
I have flat feet and wear custom inserts and have been using the 8s for the last year or so (11.5 in the HARD version and 12 in the CLAY version) and they've held up pretty well so far. I could stretch them another year but I'm looking to switch to the 9s. Tennis Warehouse recommended I go up half a size in both versions due to the dynawall foam occupying more of the sides of the shoe and up into the heel area. Also as I'm in Europe can only really choose the standard width (note: even if the Wide version does arrive I heard it will only ever be available for the HARD outsole model).
With the reviews I've seen I'm also considering the FF3's but I am firmly leaning towards the 9s because the stability seems to be better (the outsole surface has a wider contact area than the FF3) and this is paramount for me because I'm a tall lean player with previous ankle injuries so I need a shoe that feels very stable. I'm the equivalent of a 5.0 + player (45 year old male player) training once a week with semi pro juniors and the rest of the time with very good club players. I play on average 3x per week.
I haven't tried either shoe yet but would you agree on my thoughts regarding stability between the two shoes?
Just got a pair, coming from a 996 these feel pretty amazing just more support and structure without too much extra weight.

Look forward to hearing your thoughts.
Can these tennis shoes be used for school, walking, going out, playing other sports? I am considering choosing a pair of sneakers to do those things.
Can you wear the clay version on a hard court in your opinion?
Hi there, genuine technical question.
I have a pair of gel resolution 9 myself, which i love.
I also have an extra pair of Footprint custom insoles, since im also a skateboarder (33yo) looking to take care of whats left of his feet and minimizing impacts .
I’ve molded my footprints into my Resolution 9. Feels good at first glance. I am just wondering:
Knowing all that you know, do you believe i am doing a dis-service to a well designed shoe? Is the shock absorbing technology of the footprint actually counter productive with the intentions of a well thought tennis shoe ( bounce / speed etc).
I’d be curious to have your opinion on this.
Thank you x 1000s, regardless if you answer or not, your video inputs and reviews have been very valuable in taking care of my feet anyhow.
I don’t think thick strobels or shock absorbing insoles really do much to the performance of a shoe - more adds to it- I just did the bicon 2 which has a similar feature built into them and although it makes the tests look worse , the performance is the same so if it’s me I’m not worrying about it
Thank you so much for taking the time , much appreciated. 🙏🏽
just pulled a trigger on these from tennis point (their LE version which i found to have the best colors, imho). they were/are running 25% off on these + whatever % markdown it already had. came out to $93+tax. was picking between these and adidas cybersonics or barricades, but this review and the "top 5" sold me on these. will report back once i get them and try them on. thanks, Doc!
wanted to follow up a year later in 2024. still my go-to shoe this season. just scored another brand-new pair on ebay for $90+tax and hoping they last close to a year or so. couldn't be happier with these.
The worst downside is that the upper eyelet get worn out by the shoelaces. It happens quiet quickly, approximately in a pair of months using them for approximately 15 hours each month.
Thanks doc, was looking forward to your review on this. Hope the reviews on FF3 and Cybersonic are coming soon! Which do you like the best out of these 3? Which is the fastest?
One video at a time- I’ll be testing them all soon
Totally so happy to see this video. I've been waiting for your review of this shoe!!!!
These seem all most perfect. Would these see benefit from insoles? been having arch pain recently with wilson rush pro 3.0. MOVE Game day pro or game day is in consideration. lower arch feet too
Congrats on the 100k, mate! Just a heads up that New Balance just dropped the BB Fresh Foam today. I was totally unaware that they were making a basketball shoe with Fresh Foam. Curious to hear what you have to say about them eventually if possible.
Its their firts Fresh Foam BB sneaker
Zach, You suggest longer laces for the Gel Res 9s if you want to use the runner knots on the shoe - which I do as I use insoles and what to prevent heel slippage. Can you tell me what LEGTH shoelace you suggest to keep me from having to guess (and return a bunch)?
Great review! Very well detailed! Which one do you like more, this or the vapor pro 2's?
The general reviews on the Vapor Pro 2 have not been good. Same with the Vapor 11s. I am guessing all the new Asics will rate better than anything Nike currently - Diadora better than that.
I could never get a good forefoot lockdown with Asics. I have a medium width foot, but there always seems to be too much room in the toe. I injured both of my big toenails because of poor fit. I don’t think the hard material helped either. Currently wearing Lacoste.
Just bought these based on your thorough review. And got them on sale. Thanks!
Hope they work well for you
Love your videos man. I'm a tennis coach and have made all of my shoe orders based off your reviews. Not to mention, i've gotten all of my coworkers to watch your videos AND my students.
Your content is unparalleled. I need solid information across many different areas for my tennis shoe as I coach for several hours a day, and need to keep up my foot health to compete as well.
I've recently been getting a lot of heel pain around the outside of my heel, the ball of my heel exactly. It burns and I'm incredibly stiff. I have a wide flat foot and general go for a 2e in the gels.
Would you recommend the powerstep insoles for this type of heel pain? What are your thoughts?
A friend of mine said it might be bone spurs or achilles tendinosis.
Super appreciate it - Unfortunately I’d need to examine it to see where the pain is being generated
I've also got flat feet and just posted something @tennisfit40. I also wear orthotics by the way. I bought them in Belgium and wouldn't trade them for anything as the guy who made them for me does most of the orthotic soles of the pro players at the French Open in particular. They are really second to none and last for about 6 years. I'm in my 5th year.
Hope Zach replies to me because I'm very unsure about moving to the 9s given what I shared in my post.
Did you feel the dina wall put pressure on the bottom outside edge of your foot because of your wide width or did it break in
what do you like better?
FF 3 or GR9?
Great review, got a pair of 2E's today, I can really feel the top of the dynawall on the outside of both feet, its pretty uncomfortable just walking around. I do not want to chance playing in them as i wont be able to return them.
Will these break in, or would a pair of orthotics sort it out?
Really appreciate any feedback.
Zach - what’s the most cushion/comfortable tennis shoe? Coming off a medial tibia grade 2 stress reaction that’s taking a while to heal (post 3 months). I have a pair of gel 9s, Babolat propulse fury 3, vapor cage 4 and a Diadora b icon 2.
Trying to decide on which ones to keep/try. You’re advice is much appreciated. I willing to try 2 of the 4. What would be your picks for comfort and shock absorption.
FYI, Zach the B icons feel certainly more comfortable than any of the shoes I listed above. I think it might be the shoe for me but interested in your thoughts.
Get gp turbos
My width of my bottom foot is 4.35 inches so i ordered the wide version. My foot is around 11 inches so I ordered an 11 for the size, hoping the wide doesn’t affect the fit. I hope I ordered the right pair!!
would you suggest if i wear this for basketball？
Was there any break in period, and if there was, how long did it take to break them in? Also how long would it take to make the arch support fit more a flat arch instead of their listed medium arch, or would it be better to get different insoles (which ones would you reccomend)?
Hello Zack! How is all going? Which has a wider toe box? Vapor Pro 2, Resolution 9, Lav 2?
Lav 2 has wide widths so does gel 9
I have to say, coming from the Gel Res 8 I'm incredibly disappointed in the 9s. The new upper is so stretchy that my forefoot slides out over the front lateral side of the shoe. It's impossible for me to feel locked down in these shoes without tying them so tight that my feet hurt. Asics also reduced the cushion in the forefoot. The 8s we're super comfy, and these hurt the ball of my foot. I've had to put aftermarket orthotics in the 9s to make them playable. Hoping that I wear through these pretty fast so I can try going down a half size to see if it resolves the problems.
Overall, I'd call these a pretty big downgrade from the 8s which are in my top 3 favorite shoes of all time.
hey there - i'm facing a similar issue where i feel like the shoes have problem locking down especially around the ankle area, i just don't feel like its giving the snug sensation on my feet. Did going down half a size solve the issue for you?
I have a wide feet . I currently use ubersonic. Will these be the perfect fit for wide feet or should i buy the new ubersonics?
Great review! I typically wear Brooks Adrenaline GTS 22 for support with no foot pain. But I'm having trouble finding court shoes with support. Any suggestions?
After using Nike Air Zoom GP Turbo for 2 years, I had to look for alternate shoes as Nike discontinued this model.
I bought Gel Resolution 9 2022 model 2 months back. After playing for 2 to 5 hours per day, I feel there is sufficient heel and ankle support.
But started getting toe pain and feels like I am running on bare toes.
Now again started looking for alternate Nike Air Zoom GP Turbo.
first of all another great video.
I need advice about sizing. My foot is 275. Shood I go true to size or half size up?
No idea- never seen your foot shape- but just check the fit section it should answer any question you have on fit
Hey Zach great work, great video like always, I'm curious how do you think these would perform for other sports like basketball or something like that
Yeah pickle and outdoor hoops for sure
What has happened to Asics? I use to be able to play tennis for hours on an Asics Gel Resolution and not feel any pain. Now, the sole of my foot feels like it was beaten up. This shoe offers almost zero cushioning. After 2 hours of playing, I can hardly walk. I've given up using it. Shifted to the Babolat SFX -- rate one of the top most comfortable tennis shoes. It's cheaper too.
Great great video!!! I’m an eager user of the Resolution since their first edition and was looking for the drop of the shoe which I asked to Asics as well with no answer. So, thanks a lot for revealing that info!!!!
One question: what do you think should be the average duration (hours of play) of this shoe before changing pair, I mean for an average 4.5 player???
th-cam.com/video/6d_AiFEiM90/w-d-xo.html - check that video out
Great video man. Very thorough. Always check these out now before making a purchase.
Thanks very much another great review. I am between Asics Gel Resolution 9 and Mizuno Wave Force Tour 5. What's your opinion? Currently I am using Nike Air Zoom GP Turbo since September 2021 which I enjoy very much for their cushioning however after almost 2 years their sole is now breaking apart gradually bu slowly. So soon they will put to rest. I already have a pair of Nike Court Zoom Vapor Cage 4 Rafa that I purchased last Christmas and haven't yet used them and I was thinking either to use the Rafa or go for either the Gel Revo 9 or the Mizuno.

How would you compare the Res9 to the Diadora B.Icon, Zach? Which do you personally feel is a better shoe?
apples and oranges
@@FootDoctorZach I thought you might say that.
Well, I just tried them in reg and 2e and my instep is just too high for them to be comfortable. Hoping Hypercourt Supreme 2s are the winner.
Hello thank you for the in depth dive into the shoe! I'm wondering if this is a good shoe for somebody who's recovering from a ruptured plantar fascia (a little over 2 months of recovery in, not in a boot anymore, but need arch support insoles to walk around). Thank you for your time!
Depends if you want dense support or you need more plush foam - depends where the rupture was - youd have to ask the doc who saw the tear location
hey @FootDoctorZach love the videos as always i am a regular subscriber and watcher. i have a question about the nike vapor 11 and the new pro tennis shoes. are these new versions better than the previous version of the vapor pros, or the cage 3s which are the ones i have now. i have a pretty average shape foot. i am looking to buy some new shoes. thanks for all your help.
I show all the pros and cons in the videos - gotta see if the fit with your game
I wonder what Tiafoe is playing on in Dallas? I don’t think Nike will be able to resist marketing something and simultaneously have Tiafoe wear the GP Turbo to remind us have-nots. Whatever he wears, I’ll be likely to buy. The GP is a stellar shoe, I learned about late.
Thanks for review.I'm not in pressed w/ my new FF3. I'm looking forward to try the Gel 9's.
Hi Zach, Do you think hi-top or 3/4 tennis sneakers would make sense? Lots of players seem to be rolling their ankles and straps are kind of a pain to deal with. Thanks
High tops don’t stop ankle sprains - it’s the shape of the mid and outsole that help the most
I'm here because I just sprained my ankle in a match. And now I'm sold on the ankle sprain prevention in this shoe.
Just out of interest what level do you play at? I'm considering switching to the 9s(I'm currently using the 8s) because in my humble opinion it's the best shoe for stability. I had ankle issues in the past, went to the barricades till the 5th version then switched to Asics GR series and never looked back. If Monfils endorses them who was so prone to ankle injuries then that says a lot. I'm the European equivalent of a 5.0+ player (45 years old male player who wants a stable and comfy shoe and the 8s have not dissapointed).
Would you buy this shoe or the Lotto Raptor? More all court player
Just trying them on in the store interestingly I felt them hold the foot very similarly to the Lav 2s with a bit more structure?
Great video. Asics are great, but uknown largely. I'd really be interested in an Asics series - Kayano Gel vs. Nimbus vs Cloud etc ... and which has the Bset gel cushioning (i've always wondered that) etc .. including older classic models too. Think that would be a great series! Waverider 10's are classics!
Can you also do a review on Lacoste AGLT lite ? Thank you
In a few weeks- have diadora and kswiss first
Hey Zach, are you getting the new New Balance Fresh Foam BB?
Was waiting on this one, thank you Dr.!
How does this compare to the Diadora Torneo comfort wise?
Are the Gel resolution 's uppers breathable enough for 1-2 hours play in temperatures of 25-30 Celsius
Feeling the shoes bit longer, i buy them true to size, normal to feel that or I should go down with the size?
thanks for the teardown, now waiting for the comparison videos
preferred court ff novak to gel resolution 8, will check both this and court ff 3 novak when they're out
Now we NEED Djokovic shoe review!! Bc those are supposed to be slightly better than these.
Still waiting for a assics basketball shoe to this day😭
They do have a few, I reckon. But I usually see them in Asian markets. (And lots of volleyball models as well!)
They have quite good ones.
too bad theyre in singapore 😢
You could use these on outdoor courts and they won’t dest
The only way you can buy them in the states is from Goat unfortunately
Hey Doc do you think you could possibly review some shoes from crossover culture? There where some reviews b4, but they ran out of stock but now back with new models and wanted to know what you thought of them. Especially the varisty as there no reviews on the type of outsole the shoes uses. Thank you for all the work and hope you doing well.
A very informative review of the Gel Resolution 9. For the past year, I've been in an adidas Barricade. I've been very tempted to try the Gel Resolution line because of the good reviews such as this . I was curious about the sizing, I wear size 7.5 w/ 4" width (is that wide?), and I currently use a Game Day pro insole by Move. Should I go with a size 8? or true to size? Should I consider a wide? I also have a high-ish arch. It sounds like the shoe is on the narrow side. Thanks in advance for your input. Your channel is one of the best (if not the best).
Thank you- not sure about sizing as i havent seen your foot and i dont make sizing recs without seeing the foot but theres an entire fit section you can check out to make your decision - i didnt go up a size for orthotics in these personally
@@FootDoctorZach Thank Dr. Zach. I went true to size including with the Move Game Day Pro insole. After a good play session, the fit was just right. I had to use the runners knot to secure my heel due to the higher height bc of the added insole. Great shoe. Period. Keep up the good work.
Man you keep getting better, I really love all the reviews
Glad you like them!
@@FootDoctorZach Hi, why the new FF3 feels so bad on shock absorption and cushion than FF2? FF2 are much comfortable and even ankle support
I wore the Gel Resolution 8 but after some weeks, the foam really made shoe tend sideways. If they were just laying around they turned slightly inside and I don’t know if that’s good or not. I okay collegiate tennis and broke the complete sole (it deattached) after 6 weeks. Is that normal?
The best and most reliable reviews.
Appreciate you
Wondering how much better these will be vs the Gel Resolution 8s. The 8s tore my feet up - the lack of cushioning in the forefoot caused major issues for me. The balls of my feet hurt so bad that people started asking me if my feet were bothering me as I played. I ended up pivoting to the Nike Zoom Court NXT in hopes that the cushioning in the forefoot would help and thankfully it did.
So I'm very hesitant to try the Asics line again as the resulting foot pain from the 8s lasted for a good 3-4 months until it finally healed completely.
If you had that much of a problem in the 8 I dunno if the 9 is going to be THAT much of a difference - you just probably don’t match with the last of the shoe
@FootDoctorZach I want to like these shoes so badly, but the shoe has some issues I need to address. First, as you mentioned, if you use orthotics, you are forced to swap out the laces and the ones the come with the shoe are not nearly long enough to use the Runner's Knot eyelet to secure the heel in place and keep it from slipping. So now trying them WITHOUT orthotics to see if I can get a better fit and hoping there shoe is stable enough for those of us that are big over-pronators with flat feet.
Next, is the issue of the "Dyna-Wrap" strap across the ball of my big toe. Ouch! Does this break in over time? Did you have issues with this strap being quite painful at the base of your big toe, or is it just me? Is there a trick to lacing these shoes that helps with that?
Finally, there is the issue of cushioning. I was drawn to this shoe based on reviews like yours and the promise of "Best in Class" cushioning yet these feel pretty firm to me underfoot. I need proper cushioning due to some ball of foot pain and the Gel Res 9 is supposed to be excellent for that. Again, do these break-in over time and get any better?
I would be very grateful for some feedback here as I am trying to find something better in terms of cushioning than my Adidas Barricade 2023 and Lacoste AG LT-23s (both now discontinued) but with equal stability for my ankle tendons and quickness to compensate for my 275 lb frame. The Gel Res 9s seemed to check a lot of the boxes I was looking for on paper. Do I need to stick with the Gel Res 9s as they get better in time, or is this the wrong shoe for me?
th-cam.com/video/cM2dqjwvm7I/w-d-xo.html
@@FootDoctorZach I must admit that K-Swiss has not been on my radar AT ALL for the last 15 years. I always found their shoes way too clunky. That said, I'll be your huckleberry here and give them a try.
Love the AG LT-23 but could use a bit more cushioning in the forefoot for me (even with an orthotic), I could not seem to get good lockdown with the Elcipsion 5, loved the Wave Enforce Tour but the midsole stack was a little too high and unstable for my ankles, Solematch Control 2 felt good walking in them but hurt my aches with orthotics on the court, and then you have my report of the Gel Res 9 above. I have tried everything else in your Top 5.
great vid, i always love to see asics technology shine
Hey Zach, how is going? I'm writing you from Italy 🇮🇹
Unfortunately, I have a bursitis metatarsal with a lot of pain when I play tennis or Padel.
I'm looking for a pair of tennis shoes cushioned in that area with a wide wide plant.
Do you have any recommendations? I'm using Nike zoom x invincible every day but I can't use them to play tennis 🤣
Thanks a lot

Hey, all your videos are really interesting.
Could you please give me an advice? I'm confuse about which Gel-resolution 8 size to get, I have 43EU, I keep reading that for Tennis shoes it's advisable get half number up, the point is that Asics make 42.5 or 43.5, I guess I need to go for the 43.5 but at the same time I'm worried that eventually they will become too lose.
Any thoughts?
Thank you
Depends on your foot shape and what you're measuring on - check out my shoe sizing guide video to get a better idea

I understand your rankings but I use a custom orthotic and feel like the foot feels much more comfortable in the nike Vapor 9.5. Is there a reason why? The foot seems to not have any lock down in the gel resolution 9
The vapor 9.5 locks down on orthotics better- gel res has always had issues with this
Are they true to size in terms of length?
How do they compare to the Gel Resolution 8?
Will you consider using the URS to retroactively rate shoes that came out in the last year? It could be a quick compilation video, and we can look to the rest of your videos for more in-depth analysis. Then you'll rapidly have a good repository of ratings for the URS.

Nice review. I miss breathability rating. It was so bad on previous Asics shoes - could you comment on this?
It’s winter here so no idea - indoors they were fine
