Customer Reviews
Very different from the KSwiss /supremeAlways have worn the supreme. This was on sale, with the sole warranty so thought I'd try it.
Positives: tongue is better with pull tab, easier to get on w/o inner bootie, jury not in on sole wear rate, awkward switch explained below that I'm now used to.
Negatives: runs a little short, go up a half size, exterior heel rubber sticks out past heel cup and I got tripped up by that design when doing back cross step, lower overall platform to ground with less arch support, the harder sole is slippery when the courts are a bit damp or worn. They take getting used to with these differences and initially I caught the side edge and almost rolled my ankle a few times.
Overall for me I wouldn't repurchase this shoe, I'll stick with the supreme
Favorite Tennis ShoesI'm a fan of KSwiss tennis shoes in general and these Ultrashot 3 shoes did not disappoint. They provide great support and stability and fit well. (For me, they were "true to size") I have flat feet and wear sports orthotics, which were easy to incorporate into these shoes.

Runs small.Nice color, not flashy or neon. Ordered my normal size but found the length of the shoe to be short, too short. Returned and ordered the next size up. Fit was just right!
Lacks stabilityMy daughter is a competitive player and she loved these shoes for the comfort but they lack stability. She’s turned her ankle twice in this shoe.
Sores within an hour of first gameThis is a nice looking shoe, overall fit is good. The soles feel good on the court. However, the tongue has a seam that is very stiff and rubbed just below my ankle bone in the same exact spot on both feet. Another player had to spot me a bandaid to finish out an hour's match. I tried again with thicker socks 4 days later but the socks didn't help. Very disappointing.
4th pair of UltrashotsWhile I wish I could wear a lighter shoe, with more flexibility and “give,” the fact of the matter is, this shoe is the only one I have found that has kept my chronic Achilles tendinitis at bay. I have a somewhat narrow foot that is definitely narrower in the heel, and these cup my heel well, as well as being very supportive. I do not buy these in narrow, however. The medium width is great for me. I do wear custom orthotic inserts with these shoes, so I can't speak to level of support with the K-Swiss inserts. Finally, I do get lots of compliments for these shoes, and it's always fun to look fashionable on the court!
