1
adidas Ubersonic 3 White Tennis Shoes
Best Overall
The Adidas Adizero Ubersonic 3 are among the most popular shoes from Adidas. This is really saying something because they make a ton of amazing sneakers.
The Ubersonic 3s have been made for hard court use, but function pretty well on indoor hardwood courts too.
These tennis shoes make use of the durable outer sole that Adidas is well-known for. This means that they are able to put up with quite a battering.
For the more aggressive tennis players out there, this is ideal.
Enjoy darting from one side of the court to the other and want a shoe that can keep up with explosive movement? This is it.
All the while, you can be sure that the shoes are gripping the floor firmly, giving you the confidence to be at your best while on the court.
They are exceedingly lightweight, and yet feel very supportive, particularly if you are the type of tennis player that is more fast-paced.
So, if you know how to jump around the court and quickly change direction, then these will be great for you.
Pros
- Fantastic Support On the Court
- Ideal for Most Playing Surfaces
- Super Tough Outer Sole
- Comfortable Inner Sole
Cons
- Can Feel a Little Tight for Some People With Wider Feet

ASICS Solution Speed FF White Shoes
Best Cushioning
You would think that at such a low price that these tennis shoes wouldn’t necessarily have much in the way of features.
There are so many features packed into the ASICS Court/Solution Speed FF shoes.
Lets start with cushioning. We love the way the cushioning works on these. As these shoes have been designed specifically for tennis, the cushioning is made for tennis players.
This means that as you land on the shoe, the weight is spread gently over the sole. This provides a comfortable landing and helps to prevent any injury.
While the outer sole is tough enough as it is, ASICS has tried to identify the areas that would have the most wear and tear from tennis players.
As a result, they have toughened up some areas of the outer sole even more in order to prevent that wear and tear.
These shoes can also be used by those with foot injuries. The inner sock can be removed so you can add your own medical orthotics.
If this wasn’t enough, these shoes will whisk moisture away from your feet, which is perfect during those intense tennis matches. All in all, these make a tremendously good number 2 on this list.
Pros
- Best Cushioning We Have Seen
- Ideal for Those With Foot Injuries
- Toughened Outer Sole
- Overall Value
Cons
- Could Be More Breathable

Brooks Ghost 12 White Sneakers
Best All-Around
Alright, alright. We understand that the Brooks Ghost 12 is marketed as a running shoe. However, that doesn’t mean that it isn’t going to be great for playing tennis.
In fact, we know of plenty of people rocking these shoes on the court. They work…and they work exceedingly well. Let us explain.
The reason why we have included them on this list is due to the absolutely fantastic cushioning and support that they boast.
This means that they are great for those that are leaping throughout the air when playing tennis. You know that you are going to have a comfortable, supported fall down to the ground.
They are a very, very lightweight shoe too. This means that they are great for the speedier players out there on the tennis court.
In fact, despite providing huge amounts of support for tennis players, many people often remark that it almost feels as if they are wearing nothing on their feet when they are wearing these.
We like that. Nobody really wants to be hampered by their shoe when they are playing tennis, do they?
The fit on these is fantastic too. The fabric used has just the perfect amount of stretch to really feel great on your foot.
Complete with wide feet sizes, The Ghost 12 are the most accomodating white sneakers you will find for tennis.
Pros
- Comfortable
- Lightweight
- Fantastic Cushioning
- Most Accommodating Fit
Cons
- Designed for Running, Not Tennis

K-Swiss Bigshot Light White Shoes
Best Support
The K-Swiss Bigshot Light shoes are pretty descriptive with their name.
These are incredibly light athletic shoes, making them a tremendous option for those that favor fast play.
The fit is a narrower cut. This means that they are not ideal for those with wider feet.
However, we reckon that they are going to be perfect for those that find that more traditional tennis shoes are a touch too wide for them.
The material on these is quite rigid, which does provide a bit more support than other shoes.
We know that there are some people that do favor more flexible fabric, but we did want to include a little bit of something for everybody on this page.
These shoes are complete with non-marking soles, making them a popular choice for any indoor games including racquetball, pickelball and of course – tennis.
Pros
- Very Light Tennis Shoe
- Great Support
- Non-Marking Soles
Cons
- Designed More For Indoor Play
- Players With Wider Feet May Find These Too Snug

Nike Air Zoom Vapor X Tennis Shoes
Most Well-Known
Made famous by Roger Federer, these medium-width shoes are going to provide tennis with the perfect amount of support as they are darting around the court.
Although, some players may again, find them a little bit too narrow.
Nike has a reputation for producing some high-quality shoes, but with that, sometimes they come at a higher price.
These shoes are no exception to this rule.
Once you put them on, you’ll no doubt feel the quality and craftsmanship.
However, you can save yourself a few dollars and get all of the same perks in something like the Ubersonic 3 by adidas.
If you’re partial to Nike, and we don’t blame you, this is absolutely the best pair of white sneakers they make for tennis.
Many professionals including Roger Federer, Kei Nishikori, Nick Kyrgios, and Karen Khachanov compete with these as their choice of athletic shoe [1].
They seem to perform better on hard courts more than anything.
Pros
- Stylish Shoes
- Comfortable Inner Sole
- Superb Ankle Support
- Donned by Many Pro Players
Cons
- Limited Selection/Availability
- Price

Adidas Grand Court White Sneakers
Budget Pick
We love the Adidas Grand Court range. Now, we did include it bottom of this list but, when you think about it, there are hundreds of athletic shoes out there.
The reason why we love these sneakers is that they can be used for so much more than tennis.
So, if you have a bit of a budget and want to get the biggest bang for your buck, then this is the route to go down.
You have a fashion shoe, a tennis shoe, a walking shoe, and even a running shoe all rolled into one.
Now, obviously, this means that with this versatile shoe you are not going to be performing at the top of your tennis game.
However, for those people that get a couple of rallies in every so often, they are going to be perfect.
Considering they are not actual tennis shoes, they are going to be surprisingly supportive on your feet.
We certainly see no complaints coming from the more occasional tennis players, and that is rare!
Pros
- Very Versatile
- Stylish
- Comfortable to Wear
Cons
- They Fit a Bit Tight, So Get the Size Up
- Not Actual Tennis Shoes
