Diadora's premium performance shoe blends support and stability, with comfort and improved ventilation. A great all-around option for all levels of players.
Diadora's premium performance shoe, the Speed B.Icon 2 gets updated with some slight changes to the upper and Diadora's anatomical insole for shock proof cushion. Taking the midsole superfoam from their premium running shoes and infusing it into the B.Icon, you'll find great shock absorption, while also being extremely light, and responsive. The D-Skin upper material hugs the foot uniformly to help maximize the support, and to reduce stress on pressure points. An outer hook on the lateral side of the shoe is connected to the lacing system, which helps to lock-in the heels, and boost support around the ankles. Tried and true Duratech 5000 rubber compound provides a high level of wear resistance, and plenty of traction on a variety of court surfaces.
- Upper: D-Skin technology encompasses Air Mesh for ventilation, with Net Skin on top to hug the foot with support.
- Midsole: DD Anima ultra light and responsive foam, provides a high level of cushion, and explosive energy return. CCB maximizes stability for aggressive changes of direction. Anatomical shock proof EVA Insole for enhanced comfort underfoot. Anatomical designed insole formed out of shockproof EVA foam, for plush comfort.
- Outsole: Duratech 5000 rubber compound in a modified herringbone pattern for optimal traction and durability on all court surfaces.
- Color: White / Grey

Customer Reviews
Nice shoeDiadora is a good fit for my foot, so that's a great start. Comfortable, fast-feeling, light but supportive. I use a Superfeet trim to fit insole and these are my second pair of the same shoe. Reasonable wear characteristics make these a good value in my experience.
Awesome ShoeSuper comfortable shoe for an all court player. Good stability, easy to slide on hard courts, and plush feeling. For reference I’ve worn adidas Barricade, Nike GP Turbo, and Asics Court FF 2 and this is my favorite of the bunch.
Super cushionI owned the previous version of this shoe. It was probably the most comfortable tennis shoe I've ever worn. It was actually too soft for moving around the court safely. It just had too much give/cushion. However, it did feel amazing on my feet. I eventually wore them out and after wearing several other brands I started to develop foot problems, namely a Morton's neuroma in one foot and capsulitis in the other. I went back to the worn out B.Icons and the problems went away. So I ordered this new version. They appear to be as cushy but to offset the instability they made them very tight in the forefoot. Too tight to be comfortable. I sent them back and am going to try a whole size larger.
Not a shoe for competitive movers but (if the size is right) a nice shoe for comfort.
