The MCH996 from New Balance is a top tennis shoe that offers optimal support and flexibility. The shoe is extremely suitable for use on clay courts but can also be used on hard and smash courts. The top is made from a unique nylon woven structure with mesh panels. This combination provides flexibility and great air circulation. Thanks to the ProBank technology used, this shoe feels extra sturdy and offers a lot of support, especially during lateral movements. Especially because of this, this shoe is ideal for a clay court. The 996 model has a particularly light weight due to the REVLite cushioning technology. This also provides support for your foot and excellent shock absorption. Vibrations and shocks are absorbed, so you feet will not tire as quickly and the chance of injury is greatly reduced. The herringbone sole profile provides optimal grip during lateral and rotational movements and ensures that clay does not linger in the sole. Thanks to the durable sides, the shoe is more wear-resistant, allowing you to slide more on court.
