By far one of my favorite shoes to wear for tennis. Only downside is that this particular color way is 2-6 so far this season. So hopefully have more color options coming soon.

It’s gotta be the shoes…

Poor Durability. Holes in shoes in less than 2 months.
Njp79 - May 31, 2025
I bought these for my son for his high school tennis season. I purchased them on 3/9/25, but he didn’t actually start using them until 3/31/25 when practice started for the season. After less than 2 months of wear for only practice and matches, there are holes in the upper (fabric) portion both shoes. These shoes were not durable at all, and the 6 month rubber outsole guarantee doesn’t apply to the damage that occurred. I highly recommend avoiding these shoes.
Best Tennis Shoe Ever!!!

Explore the Vapor Cage 4


World champion Rafael Nadal knows how brutal the court can be on his body and his footwear. He also knows that player longevity and product durability are connected. Meet the Vapor Cage 4. Inspired by Rafa’s playstyle, it’s our most durable shoe to date. With added stability, comfort, and responsiveness, the Vapor Cage 4 will help keep you in the game longer.
To back it up, the outsole durability is guaranteed for six months.

Dialed Durability
We’ve enhanced areas of high wear on the Vapor Cage 4 by extending the tread from the outsole onto the upper, creating a seamless transition that provides durability and traction without sacrificing visual appeal. This innovation also conceals the laces within the upper, protecting them from premature wear due to dragging.

Secure Fit
From baseline warm-ups to intense, all-out lunges at the net, the Vapor Cage 4’s one-piece, wraparound upper envelops your foot and delivers stability and control across a full range of motion. An updated fit system provides containment and comfort during even your longest days on the court.

Responsive Design
To chase down tough shots and avoid injury, Rafa does a lot of sliding. It’s part of what makes him a fast and nimble player. The outsole of the Vapor Cage 4 was designed to enable controlled slides, combining the smoothness you need to get into a slide and the grip to quickly recover. A Zoom Air unit in the forefoot offers cushioning and lift to help get you to the next ball.
