Verdict
A wide, stable hard-court shoe that lasts a rec season if you are hard on laterals.
The classic all-court Radical—control-leaning 98 with Auxetic 2.0 feel, enough spin to shape, and real street-price value if you supply the pace.
New Balance's cushion-first stability shoe. The Fresh Foam X ride is among the plushest in tennis, it comes in D and 2E widths, and TW backs the outsole for six months. You pay for that in weight (about 15.8 oz), sticky traction until it breaks in, and mixed customer reports on how long the outsole lasts.
