Differential cushioning provides softer heel landings and firmer forefoot push offs
Move so fast on court your shadow cant keep up. A shoe designed for competition enthusiasts, or those seeking performance: responsive for quick changes of direction, protective to prevent the impact of repeated shocks and injuries, it is also appreciated by professional players for its comfort, durability, support, and breathable materials. You will be focused on the essentials, your game.
SUPPORT
The heel, which is heavily stressed, is protected by a dual-density sole that absorbs shocks and at the same time, promotes rebound. The shoe structure has been designed to support the foot for all types of support; the upper material adapts to the shape of the foot, while preventing the foot from moving inside the shoe. Play safely.
COMFORT
Discomfort and inconvenience should not spoil the joy of playing and the desire to win. The Shadow Tour is comfortable, even after several hours of play: the soft tongue and high collar surround the foot without squeezing it too tightly, the moulded anti-bacterial insole conforms to the shape of the foot and prevents odour formation, and the upper material allows your foot to breathe.
DURABILITY
Taking the lead will only be possible if you are reactive and precise in your positioning and movements. The engineering teams of Michelin and Babolat have collaborated for many months to develop a sole with remarkable performance: a three-dimensional stud, combined with a unique rubber formula, ensures explosive movements and control of abrupt stops, without compromising durability.
The shield at the front of the foot will guarantee long-term durability against abrasion.
