ASICS GEL-Challenger® 9 Men's Black/Fiery Red/Silver

Tennis players will love the stability and exceptional comfort of the ASICS GEL-Challenger® 9. Built with GEL cushioning in the heel and forefoot, the GEL-Challenger® 9 also features excellent upper fit, making it a great shoe for players who want a durable and reliable court shoe.

Upper: PGuard® reinforced upper resists premature abrasion. P.H.F.™ (Personal Heel Fit) system uses two layers of memory foam to line the heel collar and mold to the athlete's heel, creating a personalized fit. Synthetic and mesh upper for durability and ventilation.

Midsole: Rearfoot and forefoot GEL® cushioning systems attenuate shock for added comfort. Solyte® compound is lighter weight than ASICS' standard EVA and SpEVA®. SpEVA® midsole material improves bounce-back characteristics and decreases midsole breakdown. Trusstic System® reduces the weight of the sole unit while retaining the structural integrity of the shoe. Removable sockliner for added comfort.

Outsole: AHAR® (ASICS High Abrasion Rubber) is placed in critical areas of the outsole for exceptional durability. Non-marking outsole won't damage court surfaces. All court traction pattern.
