Speed in a tennis shoe is mostly subtraction. The Solution Speed FF gets there by stripping material out of the upper, running a lighter outsole than the models built for sliding, and using FlyteFoam (the ASICS midsole compound introduced in 2016) instead of the dense GEL packages the brand puts in its support shoe. The result is the lightest of the three models at the top of the ASICS tennis range.
The third generation continues that brief with a mesh upper in place of the coated synthetics earlier versions used. Its position in the lineup has not moved. Above it sit the GEL-Resolution, the durability-first choice for players who grind from the baseline, and the Court FF, developed around Novak Djokovic and set up for hard-court sliding. Below it sit the recreational GEL-Challenger and GEL-Dedicate.
Saxon Green and Birch is a departure for a line that usually ships in high-contrast brights.
