Running with the times: tennis shoes are slimming down. That's good news for players who want to speed up their games

Article Abstract:

Tennis shoe manufacturers have borrowed designs from the running shoe industry to take some of its market-leading 19 percent share. The new tennis shoes do not lose any functionality specific to tennis, however. A range of shoes from a variety of manufacturers, including Nike, Adidas, K-Swiss, Diadora, Fila and Wilson are evaluated for design, utility and price.
