NIKE AIR MAX COURTBALLISTEC 4.3

These shoes have three of the most important things that a tennis shoe for a competative player should have, in my opinion: stability, durability, and cushioning. air max unit in the heel is excellent, you can really feel this difference between these shoes and other tennis shoes like the 2k11's. I once landed hard on my heel while doing an overhead and it hurt like crazy wearing the 2k11. and I've landed hard on the cb4.3's lots of times and never felt much. Stability is nice, I can take lots of aggressive cuts and not have to worry about the shoe flipping over. the only thing about stability for this shoe is that is pretty high off the ground, and I prefer low to the ground if possible, so the extra height will take some getting used to. Drability is amazing as always with these series, just the toe area seems a little less durable than previous versions, so if you're a toedragger then take this into consideration. If you are just a club player who doesnt run much, these probaly are not the shoes for you. The weight is slightly noticable, and overal comfort is not as good as the vapor 9. The ankle area of this shoe dont have any cushioning at all, so sometimes it hurts my ankles when i slide in these shoes. Other than that, great shoes!

I am extremely impressed with this shoe. I found the comfort to be excellent and the ability to make sharp and deep cuts no problem for the shoe to handle. I have not had any lace issues, so as of now i will definately pick up another pair.
