Great tennis sneakers
Adamhenry
I work as the assistant pro at a small gym and play tennis (usually drills, which are more intense) for approximately 20-30 hours a week, with players ranging from 2.5 up to 5. My go-to tennis shoe was the 2018 barricade boost, but with that seemingly discontinued, I tried this model as a replacement shoe and absolutely love it. It seems more durable than the barricade boost (which had a few weak spots in construction), and incredible balanced support. ... read more

Support, comfort and durability
Steverino
I own barricade shoes from 2016 through 2018 and find these to be the most comfortable "right out of the box." Have put over 15 hours on them on hard court surfaces, and they are holding up very well to wear. These fit true to size, unlike the 2018s, which I found require one size larger, at least for me. What is very telling, is that I often forget I have these shoes on after playing a match; I find them to be that comfortable! The use of more boost material and their breathability, I think are major contributing factors to their high comfort level. BTW, have also received many compliments on their ocean-inspired Parley colour. Will probably end up buying a second pair soon. ... read more

A good change
Jake8919
First I'd like to introduce myself; I am a collegiate tennis player and have been wearing barricades for years and especially the barricade boosts, I was sad to hear that Adidas was not going to be coming out with an update to the barricade line. I needed a new pair of shoes so I decided to try this shoe and was pleasantly surprised. I really like this shoe. The fit is great with a ton of support to make sure you won't roll your ankle. But there is one minor problem with this shoe. The barricade boosts had a lot of boost material in the heel of the shoe and the sole court boosts don't have as much. When making strong movements where you actually land on your heel, it is more jarring than with the barricade boosts. With that being said, Adidas did a great job with the shoe and I will be gladly wearing this shoe until the next generation of the shoe. Great job Adidas! ... read more

As soon as I fitted the shoe to one foot instantly knew they were awesome quality I felt the comfort immediately as I stood up

I know Adidas is normally known for having very good comfort and support levels in many of their shoe models, however this particular model far exceeded what I thought it was going to feel like before fitting As soon as I stood up I could feel just how good this shoe was I was astounded at how comfortable and supporting the shoe was in both the heel and fore foot it was like walking on a cloud, the softness is like nothing I had felt before, If you pushed on the heel and then released your foot it kind of felt like a spring... the foam was quick to rerun to normal. I have tried many tennis shoes over the years and have felt they were hard in both the heel and fore foot and being that I suffer from a chronic lower back issue was limited greatly on how long I could play without server pain... I am not saying this fantastic Adidas shoe has cured my back issues, however it’s made a incredible difference on how long I can play without pain. Adidas this is product has really surprised me... well done! ... read more

Barricade durability and quality
Steverino
First pair of 2018 barricades I have purchased. Own multiple pairs of 2016 and 2017 Barricades (also w/ Boost). Find the 2018 to be very supportive of the arches, but the shoe needs to be ordered in a half-size larger than usual as it is narrower (more snug) along the arches. Also recommend tying the laces through the last eyelet to stop the tendency to walk-out of the shoe due to the larger half size. This is a very supportive and comfortable shoe that does not feel cumbersome on the court, and that has excellent traction and stability on both clay and hard surfaces. Break-in period for these shoes was less than half an hour, if that. I will buy more of the 2018 Barricades, perhaps also with Boost. ... read more
