Court surfaces and how they determine your choice

Court surfaces and how they determine your choice 

  

  

When choosing the right tennis shoe, you have to put the local tennis court into consideration. Shoes are specifically designed for different court surfaces just like the tennis ball. This means you can get the best shoe for clay, grass and other surfaces. 

  

For hard courts – this type of surface can be very punishing to your tennis shoe. Tennis shoes made for hard surfaces are basically non marking to prevent scuffing n the surface. it is constructed with priority to cushioning and shock absorption an this 

Grass courts – they are typically designed to prevent any damage to the court and have a nub patterned sole to give  the player an improved traction in grass that is potentially slippery. They are normally made of mesh and synthetic combinations. 

  

Clay courts – they are obviously much softer than all other types of courts depending on the weather. Tennis shoes made for clay courts are composed of  a herringbone tread pattern and synthetic uppers, this is so they will not clog with clay and offer you grip that also allows for sliding. They are also light weight to allow for improved manoeuvrability and speed. 

All types of courts – most brands today are designed to handle almost all types of courts.  If you do not play in a specific type of court, then this is the most convenient brand to get.
