New Balance Mens 696 V4 Hard Court Tennis Shoe

I ordered these for my teenage son who seems to go through court tennis shoes so fast. I have been really impressed on the durability and quality of the soles. These have lasted longer than his two previous pairs. He says they are very comfortable and fit true to size. He has had some ankle problems in the past and these provide great stability. These have been a great value for the price I paid and I would definitely buy again! Read more

I tried three different brands of shoes, but this one proved to be the most comfortable for me. The sizing is accurate, and I find it allows for excellent balance when changing direction. Read more

This shoe definitely is not true to size. It's a very narrow shoe. Should have looked at more reviews commenting on the size before I purchased my normal size. However, I got this shoe at a special price of around $40 so I was able to use it with very thin socks (sleeves). It feels very comfortable and stable. I would probably buy it again albeit at a larger size. Read more

Quite excellent kicks for pickleball & all around wearing. Fit is 100% & they look like sneaks for the "mature." Read more

Nice shoes for Pickleball etc! They are lightweight and yet sturdy, and I like the sole design and their comfort. As others said in prior reviews, they run a bit small. I got a half-size larger than usual, and they work. I mighta been good with a full size larger. Nice shoes for the price! Update: Still would probably buy again but we’ll see because the insoles suck. The 3rd time I played in them, it was hot and I sweat a lot playing for 2 hours in SW Florida. The insoles slid and bunched up after they got wet. I’ve replaced them with some more rigid ones I had. I expect this will fix the problem. Read more

New Balance are always great shoes and are usually a wider fit. Thats why I get them. These however fit so snug I could not wear socks with them. Read more

I absolutely love these court shoes. They’re incredibly comfortable — I did add my own inserts since I have a high arch — and they felt great from day one. I wore them for the first time and won my matches, so clearly they’re not just comfortable… they’re lucky too. Highly recommend! Read more

I had an old pair of New Balance 696 wide tennis shoes. It was so comfortable and fit real well. This one is terrible. It is super narrow and it hurts my foot just to wear it. Do not buy if you have wide feet. Read more
