hey guys in today's video I'm going to be reviewing the on Roger Pro clay court tennis
shoe and for you guys that don't know I happen to be a huge Nike fan I don't really wear other
brands except Nike however I will say that I love this company on I have several pairs
of shoes that are not tennis I have one pair of running shoes and a few pairs of leisurely shoes
I think they look really cool they're incredibly comfortable especially the running shoe so I'm
super excited to try this tennis shoe from the company on but I'm not only excited about that
I'm always excited to try Roger's products he is the most iconic tennis player in history and is
also known to be a fashion icon as well just from the looks of the shoe I love the design
I like the orange I do like the mesh design in the front so just from the Optics of it this
looks like a high quality shoe it happens to be a really expensive shoe by the way it's 200 so
it looks like it's really well made but I'm gonna have to play with it to give you an honest review
whether it's a shoe that's worth buying all right so let me try it on and I'm gonna guide you guys
through my experience of trying these on for the first time I just took these out of the box and
I can tell you that just putting them on they feel very comfortable
I like the tongue it's a super high quality tongue the tongue is a very important thing
to me and some shoes have a paper thin tongue and I can feel the laces on the top of my foot which I
don't like now the first thing I don't like about the shoe is this thing right here I think it's
super unnecessary and it's making a weird noise so I wish they didn't have this strap piece I don't
really know the purpose of that I think it makes the shoe look a little bit uglier in my opinion
it's really annoying to tie the shoelaces with this thing flapping around but let's
lock it in anyway and actually you know what not I'm actually tying this shoe wrong
simply because I'm so distracted by this stupid strap thing so I wish they get rid of the strap
this is definitely a minus for the shoe but in any case all right let me try to take a
few steps in these okay so honestly they're light but they're almost like too light it feels like
I'm going to be lacking a little bit of support I'll be honest with you guys and I'm pretty high
off the ground which is different to my favorite shoe the Nike Zoom Vapor nine and a half so it
is a comfortable shoe but it doesn't feel like there's a lot of support they just feel too Airy
and too light I don't feel like I'm completely strapped in in these this is what I feel just
walking around so it'll be interesting to see what happens when I start playing in these I can tell
you right off the bat that the cushioning not as good as Nike it's not bad on these shoes but it
does feel a little bit harder as I'm bouncing around not quite as soft even though I do feel
them higher off the ground so there's quite a bit of cushioning but it's not as Airy not as soft
as it is on the Zoom vapor Pro for example or the zoom Vapor nine and a half
as the first lateral test and almost rolled my ankle but I'm not going to blame it on the shoes
there was a hole in the court so I warmed up a little bit now it's time to play out some points
and move all the court and see how these shoes perform
Milan is testing the shoes right away
okay that was interesting as I slid after hitting that ball I hit my toe
on the front of the shoe and it hurts that doesn't happen on a Nike so that part
is a result of the top part being a little bit too soft you know I do like it to be comfortable
up here but I feel like it's almost too soft up here where the foot is like moving around too
much so as I slid after hitting that shot my foot moved forward you could even see the toe
kind of protruding through the shoe as I'm sliding forward so that part it's not good
did not feel good in that rally I'd be really honest with you
did not feel as I was bouncing around on my toes and setting up for the high forehand
I don't know even though there is cushioning it felt kind of hard
on the front part of my foot as I was doing that it wasn't too comfortable
oh my goodness Milan what shoes are you wearing man Zoom Vapor Pro
okay running forward not bad that felt pretty good so in other words like the traction
on the bottom of shoes is pretty decent I didn't feel like I was slipping especially
when I exploded towards that ball exploded when I started to run let's just say that way
it wasn't that explosive of a movement but it felt pretty decent moving up to that ball
so super important example there was forced to laterally move with my left foot which is my
weak side this is where my knee is broken and I feel super insecure making movements to that side
and again I didn't like the way the shoe felt not a lot of support it's too
too soft on top two almost too comfortable too light not enough materials to hold
the foot in place again I felt like my foot shifted as I made the lateral stop
landing on the serve again I wish I could tell you it feels great but it just doesn't feel that
great it doesn't feel too much cushion as I'm landing hard on the front foot
okay that felt pretty good not the shoes the forehand these are unbelievably comfortable
shoes and I definitely could walk around in these but I do notice a few deficiencies here and there
when it comes to their performance on the court because again those are two different things
there's comfort and there's performance stability and some companies manage to find a balance
between these two for example some of the Nike shoes but my impression so far is that the comfort
is a 10 out of 10 and a performance I'll put it right now at a six out of ten hey what the heck
let's go let's go for the second serve kick let's give this shoes a ride for their money
not too bad on that one that was pretty good I felt pretty good all
right guys we got the ambulance on standby it's time for a slide test
they're pretty good you can slide well in these shoes again something that I mentioned in the
beginning of the video I don't feel a lot of stability and support on top so I do feel like
my foot is slightly moving forward you can even take a look I'm going to zoom in on my foot and
you can see my big toe protruding forward you see that how it's protruding through the shoe
it's just that the shoe is not holding my foot and I have tied these as tight as I possibly can
so the sliding part is good but I do feel my foot moving inside the shoe a little bit and
as I'm thinking about another aspect of the shoe I do feel like the shoe is slightly wider than
my Nike and maybe that's why my foot is moving because I do have a more of a narrow foot that's
why I like Nike shoes so much so maybe somebody with wider feet is going to find more stability
in the on shoes and generally as I told you in my other shoe review videos the fact that I like or
dislike a shoe doesn't mean that you're gonna like or dislike it everybody it's got a different foot
everybody's got a different preference but one thing that we can all agree on as far as style
these shoes are absolutely top but I think these are some of the coolest looking shoes
out there Milan what do you think which ones do you like better the Roger Federer ons or
your Zoom Vapor Pros so uh to play a serious match yeah I will go with the Nike Nike why two reasons
I feel like with Nikes is a little bit easier to slide okay and I feel a little bit firmer on
the ground when I'm about to hit my shots me too that's my honest opinion don't you think they're
a little bit too soft on top like the foot is kind of they're very soft the foot is almost loose in
there so they look very nice and I mean they are still good performance oh they're stylish so the
performance is not bad yeah yeah but I don't think it's as good as Nike well you asked me to compare
it with the Nike yeah play a serious match I would rather do Nike yeah especially say if you want to
play on Hardcourt yeah I feel like with Nike it'd be easier to slide and it'd be better to kind of
be more firm in the position you know how to slide on hard part yeah you have to show me you have to
teach me I'll take a lesson from you yeah but it's still a nice pair of shoes they look very nice
they look really nice for example for teaching I think I would rather choose this because it's
a softer feel me too exactly right these are the perfect teaching shoes exactly right yeah I agree
