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.
K-Swiss Womens Ultrashot 4 Clay Tennis Shoes
Blend stability and responsiveness to perform to your highest level with the K-Swiss Women’s Ultrashot 4 Clay Tennis Shoes in White/Orchid Petal/Neon Blaze, tuned for use on clay courts courtesy of the deep grooves on the Aosta 7.0 outsole that provide superior traction.

A carbon winglet on the lateral forefoot helps focus this energy to deliver rapid bursts of acceleration, whether you’re sprinting towards the net or running across court to retrieve the ball. Containing these intense bursts of energy is made possible by technologies like the 360 PSC support chassis and TPU-based mesh and overlays used in the upper, designed to stabilise your movements while reinforcing the support the durability of the shoe.

Clay Court
Clay court tennis shoes are specifically designed for optimal performance on clay surfaces. These shoes feature a full herringbone tread pattern on the outsole, which provides superior grip on the slippery clay surface, while also allowing the right amount of slide that clay-court play requires. This pattern also prevents clay from clogging the grooves. Additionally, these shoes are built to offer excellent lateral support for the side-to-side movements typical of clay court play. Enhanced durability is often a design focus as well, due to the abrasive nature of clay courts. Choosing clay court shoes can significantly improve stability and performance.
