Verdict
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 softest serious 98 you can buy right now (61 RA plus ProKennex's moving-mass Kinetic chambers), with real spin and placement, but you supply the pace, so it's a demo for arm-sore control players, not a Clash substitute.
Yonex’s club-player control stick—surgical 97 aim, buttery FlexCon pocketing, and enough spin to keep full cuts honest.
