K-Swiss has revived their look with their new line of Hypercourt Express. These
K-Swiss women’s Hypercourt Express tennis shoes are colorful in a vibrant pink. They also have a cool herringbone Durawrap on the upper of the shoes. This ties it all together in a more modern, up-to-date look which most tennis players can enjoy.
These tennis shoes are lightweight, but will definitely still hold up to wear. The upper helps prevent wear on the outside of the shoe, around the toe area and on the sides where holes typically develop after a while. With the Durawrap upper, your foot will feel more secure when you lace them up. There is also a pivot point to assist in sharp turns. With just these benefits, you can probably see that these tennis shoes could be used for either cross-training or hard workouts on the tennis court.
In addition to the outside, there are some great features hidden inside these shoes, as well. The sock-liner is made of a cushioned Ortholite material; if you wanted to upgrade to an insole or orthotic insert, you could easily do so. These tennis shoes have a seamless heel grip on the inside of the heel collar. It helps keep your heel from slipping out of the shoes, which can be bothersome and can even cause blistering. So, it’s one less thing to worry about and will give you added sense of security when you make quick, dynamic movements.
The midsole of these tennis shoes have a plastic support chassis that helps keep you stable and prevent unwanted movements. They are low to the ground and will make you feel close and connected to the tennis court. The outsole of the Hypercourt Express’ have a herringbone design, similar to what is on the upper design. The outsole of these shoes are specific to the
K-Swiss tennis shoes line - they are made with the Aosta 7.0 rubber compound which improves the grip and traction to the tennis court.
The K-Swiss Hypercourt Express is a welcome addition to K- Swiss’ already great line of tennis shoes. You will feel both fast and comfortable on the court. These tennis shoes are ideal for players with quick feet, that want a lightweight and supportive shoe.
