REVIEW: Asics Gel-Challenger 8

Asics knows tennis.

The Gel-Challenger 8s were an instant hit with our team. These kicks offer everything you need on the court in terms of traction and a durable sole. The AHAR (High Abrasion Rubber) is placed in all the right places for grinding plays on the court. True to its name, the GEL Cushioning System in the heel and forefoot, as well as the Solyte midsole, keeps feet well-cushioned and comfortable.

We found these kicks to fit true to size. While on the heavier side, the comfort and support they offer make up for the extra weight. The striped details on the shoe make it aesthetically appealing- summoning a "ready for battle" feeling. The grip on these are amazing, making them a great choice for hard court surfaces.

Available now at Asics for $95.
