Summary
The Asics Gel-Resolution 7 Men’s tennis shoes have good shock absorption, enough to keep damaged knees from more pain. They offer a good amount of support even for aggressive players.
The sole provides good traction and it offers good arch support. It also supports your foot during lateral movements and is one of the most comfortable tennis shoes available.
The sizes do run a bit large and the toe box is too narrow, especially if you have relatively wide feet. The heel area is loose and does not always provide the same level of support as the front foot.
These are heavier shoes but they are also sturdy and stable. The removable insoles are not exactly the same standard as the rest of the shoe and you may need to replace it with your own additions.
Comparison
This Asics Gel-Resolution 7 compares well with its competitors. It is durable and comfortable and it does not have seams or raised areas on the inside that can cause blisters as with other shoes.
I liked that it is smooth and cushioned unlike a lot of competitors. However, it is a heavier shoe and compares to other midrange shoes in terms of weight and stability.
It is not incredibly lightweight but it also not clunky and won’t drag you down stick you to the court. The sole provides good traction and will not let you slip on hard courts or on clay.
It is a very durable shoe and won’t tear at the seams. It is relatively well ventilated for a stable shoe, it is not as breezy as shoes with a generous mesh upper.
Its biggest problem is with sizing has the sizes run large but the toe box is also narrow.
It provides very good arch support compared to other shoes in its range and is available in a very large variety of colors to suit any taste or tennis ensemble.
It does not have the same low profile as some speed model shoes but is aimed at stability.
Verdict
The shock absorption and comfort of the Asics Gel Resolution 7 tennis shoe are its most important points.
It has a few more but the main points mean that the shoes are kind to your knees and can also take the impacts of a very aggressive game.
These shoes are sturdy and durable but also incredibly heavy. They provide good traction for all those quick moves on the court.
These shoes will work well as part of your competition kit and will serve you for a season or more.
