Verdict
A wide, stable hard-court shoe that lasts a rec season if you are hard on laterals.
One of the lightest clay shoes with a durability guarantee (12.7 oz, 6-month outsole warranty) and a full herringbone DX Rubber bottom, but it's a slim, low-profile speed shoe, not a plush do-everything option.
The current Pro Staff midplus—same v14 playability in classic black paint—surgical aim and plow for players who supply the pace, not free depth.
