I find them tight in the width. Still trying to stretch them out. Unfortunately, I found this out after being on the court.

I have worn Asics for years. Loved the Speed 2 which had meah around the forefront area. Since asics has started using Plastic around forefront of their womens shoes, the comfort level is gone! I hate the shoes. They are hot and can cause rubbing in my toe sock when I get very sweaty in a match - sweat and rubber around toes doesn’t work PLEASE ASICS return to using meah in womens tennis shoes. I

I have previous Asics tennis shoes and like them a lot. This particular one runs a little tight, but I wore them to a clinic and did fine. Next pair I order will be 1/2 size bigger.

I have a pair of these in white for pickleball indoor play. With numerous foot problems, these are the most comfortable shoes I own so Ibought this funky pair to wear for everyday errands and walking several miles. They don’t disappoint.

2 Stars Too Tight Shoes

JBrown from AR wrote (March 12, 2018):

Shoes are too tight and the "plastic" covering on shoe is not a soft plastic which is very uncomfortable. I wouldn't purchase these shoes again.

Always love these shoes, get the same type in every color. Fits well and color is good. Comfort level is good.

I play 9.5 mixed doubles and tried these out this weekend. Loved how lightweight they were and I felt very stable in them. I also am a fan of black sneakers, so I felt pretty cool on the court ;) I like the design.

I’ve tried many shoes over the years and I keep coming back to this one. It’s a durable, solid lateral-support, lightweight shoe and I love the varied colors.

I have been playing tennis for 50 years. For the last 10 Years, I have been playing on a below knee prosthetic right leg due to cancer. For the past two years I have been playing in ASICS Tennis sneakers. For the past week I have been playing in the ASICS Gel Solution Speed 3. They are great and even good for prosthetic feet which are hard to fit. Just needed to purchase a whole size larger this time. The blue & white is really sharp too. 3 mo ago friends even made a YouTube video”senior in her prosthetic leg and her ASICS”!

5 Stars Good supportive tennis shoe

These shoes last a b it longer than the Nike Air Advantage that I alternate with. The Asics have a bit more arch support as well and are a bit stiffer shoe, but still comfortable

1 Star Bing back the old Speed!!

Jilly from CO wrote (January 09, 2018):

I have loved these shoes for years and bought many pairs in many colors but these are torturous. The toe box is much more narrow and stiff and I could not stand to keep them on my feet for more than 5 minutes. I had read this in other reviews and thought that I would give it a shot since I have pretty narrow feet. That was a definite no go. I have moved on to the Nike shoes which are more comfortable feel so much clonkier. So sad :(

1 Star Loved Solution Speed 2, hate Solution Speed 3

lyf451 from OH wrote (November 14, 2017):

I have worn multiple pairs of Asics Solution Speed 2 shoes for several years, and was very happy with them. I ordered Solution Speed 3 in the same size. They were way too small and narrow in toe box. Next, I ordered 1/2 size up. Still too tight. The plastic-like material introduced in Speed 3 is inflexible, stiff, and doesn't allow proper ventilation. I did not want to suffer through breaking these tight plastic shoes in, so switched to Adidas. Very disappointed. Hopefully Asics listens to its loyal customers and makes changes in the future!

4 Stars My first pair of Asics

Robyn from PA wrote (October 31, 2017):

Normally I get adidas, but didn't care much for the available colors, so I decided to give Asics a try, I have several friends who love them. The shoes run a little small, I had to return them and order the next 1/2 size up. Fortunately, with the free returns it was a hassle-free process. I wore them twice the first day, and they were great, no real break-in needed, light and comfortable. The third time I wore them, I made the mistake of wearing no-show socks, and this time the shoes rubbed my ankle and created a sore spot. Fourth time I wore higher socks and again they were fine. So far, so good.

4 Stars Good Shoe

L. Reynolds from GA wrote (October 29, 2017):

I used to wear the Asics Resolution but changed to the Asics Speed when they came out. I've worn them for many years. This particular shoe is narrower than the past Asics Speeds that I have worn. I will still buy it unless I find something better, but please bring back the previous model.

4 Stars Good

Laura from PA wrote (October 25, 2017):

These shoes are good. I've worn the gel solution model for years and have always been satisfied. The toe-box is tight and they are hard to break in but I like them better than other asics models I've tried.

5 Stars Love this shoe!

Joyful from PA wrote (October 22, 2017):

I have worn Asic Gels for several years, and this shoe is my favorite. It's the most comfortable after a very brief break-in period (a little stiff right out of the box) and holds up well to anything you put it through on the court. Love the black & orange, just ordered another pair.

2 Stars Poor fit

Cheryl Hayes from MI wrote (September 19, 2017):

My first two pairs of the 3s were fine. The third pair rubs under my ankles. If I don't tape my ankles, they are deep purple and sore. I will not buy more.

3 Stars Sizing issues

Pat from CO wrote (September 07, 2017):

I've been wearing Asics for several years now, and I do love them. However, I have gone from an 8 1/2 to a 9, and now I'm on the verge of being a 9 1/2. No, my feet are not growing. They seem to be shrinking the shoe sizes It is no longer easy to order a size and have any confidence that they will fit. Other than that, I like the shoes.

5 Stars Love Asics

Sandie from CA wrote (July 29, 2017):

I love to play tennis and love to wear Asics shoes! The toe box is not wide like other brands - feels great and supports your foot. The colors are great fun to mix and match with outfits.

Best tennis shoe: light, good lateral support and no break-in. The tread tends to wear out fast though. Love this shoe!

1 Star Inferior to Speed 2

Joanie from NJ wrote (July 13, 2017):

I loved the Speed 2 and have had at least five pairs. But this reincarnation, the Speed 3, is rigid, inflexible, narrow, and inferior in almost every way (The insole cushioning is slightly improved). Why did Asics mess with the perfect shoe?

I love this shoe for tennis. It has great lateral support and is super light. You don't feel like you are wearing cinderblocks on your feet! A must have tennis shoe!

4 Stars Nice shoe

Karen from SC wrote (March 30, 2017):

This shoe is both comfortable and durable. The tread seems to hold up well. The upper breathes well and feet stay somewhat cool. Both pairs I bought seemed to produce a small blister by the left eyelet on the right shoe. After two wearings, they were fine.

4 Stars Good shoe, great price!

Cathy from OH wrote (March 11, 2017):

I like these shoes but I like other Asics tennis shoes better. I love that they are light & the cushion is wonderful, but they are cut differently than the Gel Resolution 7 which are just slightly more comfortable on my foot

4 Stars Speed 2 vs Speed 3

Bridget from KS wrote (September 12, 2016):

I love the Speed 2 and recently purchased the Speed 3. I feel like they are a bit wider with more rubber on the lateral part of the shoe. They have more room in the upper part of the shoe. They are great for narrow feet especially in the heel. However, I like the Speed 2 way better.

5 Stars Great Shoe for Narrow Feet

Jerry from OK wrote (September 12, 2016):

I've been wearing Nike Vapors for the last couple years but have made the recent switch to the Speed 3 because of a better fit and more support/cushioning. My feet are narrow except for the toe area and I have zero arch. I like my shoes to be light and low to the ground which is exactly how the Speed 3s feel when I play. I do think you need to have narrow feet to wear these shoes. Since that is my situation I really appreciate these shoes.

5 Stars inaccurate size

Jerry from OK wrote (September 12, 2016):

I am so disappointed in the size difference between the gel solution speed 2 and the 3. I have worn the 2 for several years and love the fit! I was disappointed when I Could no longer find my size 6.5. the new version 3 was so much smaller. I have ordered a size 7 to try. so strange to me that the size differences could be so different when you are buying the newest version of the same shoe.

4 Stars Sizing off

Bridget from KS wrote (September 12, 2016):

I have owned many models or gel solution speed 1 and 2. I comsistently wore 7.5 when my street shoe size is 7. With the the gel solution 3, I bought a 7.5 and immediately had problems because they were too tight. The inner part of the shoe hits my ankle bone and it hurts. The upper is so tight that it hurts. My toes seem to bump the front more than before. I would recommend sizing one size up.

3 Stars Didn't meet my expectations

L. O. from HI wrote (June 25, 2016):

I'm a bit disappointed about the quality of these shoes. I was hoping lots of cushion like the very first version of this line. I wonder if manufacturing at a different place has something to do with it. I have been buying the Speed Gel Solution kind for the past 3 years and I'm considering switching to other brand because they didn't meet my expectations. Besides the light cushion, I find the left hand side shoe has some defects with the overall alignment and it has lower arch than the right shoe.

Jolene from GA wrote (May 03, 2016):

Shoe fits well, does not slip off heel, gives enough room in the toes (I often take an 8W in New Balance). I like that the base near the pinky toe extends out a bit for stability and arch has just enough support. (Female, 50's, restarting tennis)

I feel the Speed 2's fit better. Unfortuately, Asics has now stopped making the 2's. The Speed 3's are wider on the lateral part of the shoe. Bring back the 2's!

3 Stars ASICS SPEED 3 DISAPPOINTS

Sarah from TX wrote (January 19, 2016):

ASICS GEL-Solution Speed 1 and Speed 2 were amazing but when SPEED 3 came out it was clear to see they cheaped out on materials and used constricting plastic. My feet were bruised and blistered after playing for an hour in these. REAL PLAYERS NO LONGER WEAR ASICS. I wish they would go back to the Speed 2 or even the Speed 1 design. Otherwise I am afraid they are going to lose all the serious tennis players out there who actually really need the "SPEED". It's a shame ASICS blew it!

5 Stars Buy a size bigger

dee from FL wrote (January 15, 2016):

I love these shoes, but this particular one runs SMALL. I have always worn a 10...ordered these for Sectionals and had them delivered to the hotel (bad planning) and had to wear them as my other shoes were pretty worn out. Unfortunately they run SMALL and I got blisters and suffered. I then ordered another 1/2 sizebigger and they are much better. Recommend trying them on or ordering two sizes and send the one size back once you figure out which fits best.
