Verdict
A wide, stable hard-court shoe that lasts a rec season if you are hard on laterals.
Nike’s current dual-Zoom hard-court cushion shoe—bouncier first step than Vapor, planted enough for aggressive cuts, heavy and often snug, list price that needs a sale to feel fair.
A comfortable modern 98 that gives rec regulars easy depth without a boardy, tour-stiff feel.
