K-Swiss Ultrashot 3 HB Tennis Shoes

White/Peacoat/Lime Green

Every tennis player deserves to wear K-Swiss. Ever since the Brunner brothers created the Classic back in 1966, K-Swiss tennis shoes have had quality at their core, with an insistence on the use of premium materials making them one of the most comfortable and luxurious brands on the market.

If you don’t know the story, the Classic was not only the first K-Swiss shoe, but also the first all-leather tennis shoe. Having swapped Switzerland for California with the dream of creating a footwear company, Art and Ernie Brunner targeted tennis, using their experience of skiing the Alps to make a shoe that was the absolute peak for stability at the time.

It wasn’t just the leather: taking inspiration from Swiss mountain climbing ropes, their five-stripe lacing system offered unrivalled lockdown during lateral moves. You only need to look at modern sports shoes to see how good an idea that was. They must have known they were onto something – it takes a certain amount of confidence to call your very first shoe the Classic, after all.

These days, the Classic is a popular lifestyle shoe, worn by tennis fans, fashionistas, and superstar celebs alike. Tennis-wise, their modern classic, if you will, is the Hypercourt Express. Offering a winning combination of support, comfort, breathability, and an accommodating fit, it’s a strong contender for the best all-round tennis shoe available today and remains a bestseller.

Variations of the Hypercourt Express include the Hypercourt Supreme with its additional bootie support at the ankle, the self-explanatory Express Light, and the Court Express, which brings the popular design to casual players at a lower price.

Elsewhere, if you prefer a durability-focused shoe with class-leading cushioning, check out the Ultrashot range. Or, if pure speed across the court is more your style, take a look at the super-fast Speedtrac and its agile Speed Traction outsole.

All court tennis shoes are designed to perform across a variety of court surfaces, making them versatile footwear options for tennis players. These shoes feature an outsole with a universal tread pattern to provide the right balance of grip and give on both hard and clay courts, and even grass. Additionally, they often have reinforced toe caps for added durability, considering the high-wear nature of tennis. Cushioning and stability are prioritised to support swift lateral movements and quick pivots. All court tennis shoes are ideal for players who play on different surfaces or for those who prefer a multi-purpose tennis shoe.
