This 10th generation of the Gel Resolution delivers stability, durability, and comfort! A great option for players looking for trusty and comfortable shoes.
The Asics Gel Resolution X takes stability, durability, and comfort to the next tier as Asics incorporates key updates, and builds upon the popularity of the previous generation (Asics Gel Resolution 9). A re-engineered Dynawall maximizes the lateral stability, while maintaining comfort as you plant and cut aggressively for changes in direction. The midsole is now more plush than previous versions with a combination of FlyteFoam Blast+ and ECO Foam; forget not the signature Gel cushioning in the forefoot. The medial side of the ankle collar has been raised to provide comfortable padding, while the PGUARD on the medial side of the toe box provides drag protection, for those players who slide on hard courts. A Full length AHAR Plus rubber outsole carries on the reputation of being one of the most durable in the industry, and the tread pattern provides good grip on a variety of surfaces. Backed by a Tennis Warehouse six month outsole durability guarantee.
- Upper: DYNALACING for a customizable fit and added comfort when cinching the laces tightly. Full length Flexion Fit upper with increased support, comfort, and ventilation.
- Midsole: FlyteFoam Blast+ and ECO Foam combine for cushioning and energy return. Asics' signature GEL adds to the shock absorption, and a responsive feel under foot. The Dynawall system is redesigned for more lateral stability and improved comfort on the lateral side of the foot.
- Outsole: Full length AHAR Plus rubber outsole in a multi-directional tread pattern, with pivot points for durability and traction on any court surface. PGuard Toe Protector for those who slide and toe drag. Backed by a tennis warehouse six month outsole durability guarantee.
- Color: White / Saxon Green

Thanks for the heads upWhat on earth drives a company to change up a very popular design of shoe. I bought a whole bunch of Resolution 8's and am staring to run low so I thought I'd see what the latest version was up to. Sounds like a real disaster.
Time for a change?Been wearing Gel Resolution for past 10-12 years, this is the first version that no longer fits my foot. Way too sloppy in toe box. I bought the K-Swiss Hypercourt Supreme 2 and am pleasantly surprised on overall fit. A little easier on pocketbook too.
Ruined a great shoeI’ve found the gel resolution 7, 8 & 9 to be exceptional shoes for comfort, support and fit. By far my favorite tennis shoe.
So, I was hopeful with the new X version. Wow, how did Asics screw up so badly. The lateral support is gone and the fit is sloppy, The previous versions felt locked in to your feet, The X version has lost that.
Guess I’ll have to start looking for a new favorite. ASICS has lost me as a customer,
Getting a blister on pinky toeAs many other reviewers mentioned. I’ve been getting a blister on my right pinky toe. I’ve worn the shoes over 20 times so they should definitely be broken it by now.
Great Stability & SpeedThis is the best Resolution yet. The stability is amazing and this shoe just fits my foot well. The only nit I've ever had with the resolutions is when they went to the rubber mesh over the the toes, some models when new fold weirdly when bent.
Asics Gel ResolutionI don't like the way they have made the toe pointier. Have worn them for years and like the old style better.
Asics Gel Res. X ClayIt's a different shoe than the earlier iterations for sure. Comes up higher on the foot, perhaps slightly heavier, but I find my foot feels more secure and more cushioned, which is a nice little benefit.
Not as bad as the reviews!!!I was a long time user of the gel res line and this shoe finally addressed the biggest issue for me being the fit. I always found the shoes to be too narrow even in wide widths and I don’t even have a wide foot. These feel pretty much like a thicker gel res 9. Pretty similar just a bit chunkier
+Weight, Stability, Durability, -LacingHuge fan of the Resolution series since 5. Have owned multiples of each. Daily player, both hard and clay courts. This review is specifically for the clay version, however hard court version likely has the same benefits and issues. I have used it for about 2 months.
Likes:
* Feels more stable
* Bottom is more durable/firmer
* Uppers appear to be solid
* Slightly heavier. I am a fan of heavier shoes as they generally offer more protection to my heels
* Still has that Resolution "soft gel" feeling in the heel
* No break in period at all, just started using it day 1
* Additional grip on the inside of the shoes, very helpful on clay for sliding/push off
* Tennis Warehouse excellent customer service (as always)
Dislikes:
* Lacing mechanism ripped 2 inner lacing loops at 2 months. This is not using any excess force or overtightening them. Loops unlike prior models are not "holes" in the shoe, but instead fabric lacing
Given this, about 50 matches in, the (clay) shoe is done for. I *could* cut holes for laces in the uppers, which appear to be able to hold it (uppers are pretty thick rubber/polymer) - but that likely compromises the balance of the shoe/stability/support, so I did not risk it.
In general, prior generations of Asics have lasted for me somewhere between 4 and 5 months. This applies primarily to clay court shoes, with clay fairing better on the sole because it doesn't wear out nearly as much on the soft surface. It's the uppers that generally go with clay model. Soles go first on hard court model, especially with modern gritty courts (sliding on both hard and clay)
Best gel res yetFor wider feet who want more lock down in the ankle than last gel resolutions, can’t do any better.
