The GEL-DEDICATE™ 8 tennis shoe offers good stability and a flexible feel to keep your mind centered during the match. This shoe's upper is constructed with synthetic leather overlays to improve support. They keep your feet locked-in when you're switching directions and chasing down challenging shots. A TRUSSTIC™ support unit and wrap-up outsole improve stability while allowing your feet to move freely. This lets you change directions more confidently, particularly if you're moving side-to-side.
