Our Top 5 Best Men's Tennis Shoes

Last updated: 25 August 2026

Tennis shoes are the optimum choice of footwear for tennis players of any ability. Not only do they provide the necessary support and cushioning for your feet, but they also play a crucial role in your overall performance on the court. With a wide variety of options available to men on the market, finding the perfect pair of tennis shoes can be a daunting task. Below we look at the five men's shoes our customers are buying most, across every price point, and what each one is actually good at. One of them is a wide fitting, and we have said so where that applies. For the full range, see our Men's Tennis Shoes page.

1. adidas Gamecourt 3 Mens Tennis Shoes - Cloud White / Core Black

Designed For: All Round
Player Level: Beginner

The Gamecourt 3 is comfortably the best-selling men's tennis shoe we stock, and it earns that on being the sensible first choice. If you play socially, once a week or so, and you want a proper tennis shoe rather than a running trainer that will shred on court, this is where to start. It does not demand good footwork before it rewards you.

The outsole is built for hard courts and holds up through a season of regular play, and the cloud white and black finish is plain enough that nobody will know it is the entry-level model. There is no cleverness here, which is precisely the point.

2. Yonex Power Cushion Sonicage Wide Unisex Tennis Shoes - White

The Yonex Power Cushion Sonicage Wide Unisex Tennis Shoe in white, shown from the side.

Designed For: All Round
Player Level: Advanced

Worth saying up front: this is the wide fitting, and it is a unisex last rather than a men's specific one. If you have a broader foot, or you have spent years squeezing into standard widths and putting up with it, this is the shoe on this list to try first. It is also our second best seller in men's footwear, which tells you how many people need the extra room.

Yonex Power Cushion is the real draw. It absorbs impact and returns some of it, so the third set feels less punishing than it does in a firmer shoe. Support through the midfoot is genuinely good, and the all-white finish suits players at clubs with a whites policy.

3. HEAD Revolt Court 5.0 Mens Tennis Shoes - White / Blueberry

Designed For: All Round
Player Level: Beginner

The Revolt Court 5.0 sits alongside the Gamecourt as the other shoe we sell in real numbers to players starting out or coming back to the game. Choosing between them mostly comes down to fit: the HEAD runs a little more structured through the heel, so try both if you can.

The Hybrasion+ outsole handles hard courts and artificial grass without wearing through quickly, and the upper is noticeably breathable in a long match. There is enough lateral support for club-level movement without the stiffness that puts newer players off a full performance shoe.

4. Yonex Pro-Move Classic Mens Tennis Shoes - White / Sax

The Yonex Pro-Move Classic Mens Tennis Shoe in white with sax blue detailing, shown from the side.

Designed For: All Round
Player Level: Intermediate

The Pro-Move Classic is the shoe to look at if the Sonicage above appeals but you need a standard width, or you want to spend less. It is the middle option on this list in every sense: more shoe than the two entry-level models, less specialised than a full performance frame, and a sensible pick once you are playing weekly.

It shares the Power Cushion approach to impact with its more expensive stablemate, in a simpler build. The white and sax blue is one of the cleaner looks we stock, and we hold this one deep, so size availability is rarely a problem.

5. Babolat Propulse Storm All Court Mens Tennis Shoes - White / Dark Blue

The Babolat Propulse Storm All Court Mens Tennis Shoe in white with dark blue detailing, shown from the side.

Designed For: All Round
Player Level: Intermediate

The newest shoe on this list and the one we would point a committed club player towards. The Propulse line has always been Babolat's stability option, built for players who plant hard and change direction rather than glide, and the Storm carries that into a lighter package than the Propulse Fury it sits below.

Support through the upper is the standout, particularly across the forefoot during a hard lateral push. It is a lot of shoe for what it is, and because it has only recently landed there is full size availability, which will not last.

Summary

The five above cover the realistic range for a men's player: two forgiving shoes to start in, a wide fitting for broader feet, and two more supportive options for anyone playing several times a week. Fit matters more than specification with footwear, so if you are between two of these it is worth trying both rather than going on the description alone.
