Verdict
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.
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.
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.
