best tennis shoes for junior?

My favorite shoes are the Adidas barricade 2's. They are very comfortable and durable. I play 5-7 times a week and it takes me about 2-3 months to wear them out. Then I send them back to Adidas and get a free pair. They cost about $75 but are worth it because you get 2 pairs out of them if you wear them out in under 6 months. Definitely a good buy for juniors who play a lot.

The Jordan XXI is awsome I have a black pair but will burn a hole in most peoples wallets.  But I would suggest an outlet mall to shop at you can get name brands for loads cheaper, but I would stick with Nikes, Jordans, addidas, AND 1, or Reeboks.  I had a pair of dada's last season but they made a sound when ever they blew out the air to make the spinners spin.

There are differing opinions on this and to a certain degree it comes down to a matter of preference and the strength/sensitivity of your feet, ankles, and knees.  Most people however perfer and recommend wearing true hiking boots.\n\nThe only real advantage to tennis or track shoes (aside from not having to buy another pair of footware) is that they are quite a bit lighter than most hiking boots.  Where you are doing a lot of up and down (like in the canyon) this means your legs are having to do less lifting and thus expend less energy.\n\nThe disadvantages of track shoes is that they do not provide any ankle support, so you have higher chance of a sprain when going over rough terrain and the thinner soles means your feet will take more of a pounding.  Also if you are carrying a heavy pack than your feet will be carrying more weight and pressure than they are used to and the better arch support of a hiking boot will reduce strain and fatigue.\n\nI personally always wear hiking boots when hiking in the canyon (even if I am not carrying an overnight pack), but I know a few people that backpack there in tennis shoes and don't have a problem.\n\nIf you do buy new hiking boots, make sure you get ones that feel right and fit perfectly.  Go shopping at the end of the day (when you feet expand more than in the morning), wear the same sort of socks you will have while hiking and ensure that your heel stays firmly in place but that you have enough room in the toes (don't want to be pressing into the front of the boots on steep downhills).  Be sure to break them in well before the trip by wearing them around home/work and doing some short practice hikes.\n\nOn the topic of feet, there are these little latex patches that you can get in exercise and outdoors stores (SecondSkin and other brands) that you can place over areas of your feet (ball, heel, big toe) that tend to get blisters and they greatly reduce the chance of blisters forming.  I have never had much luck with Moleskin or athletic tape (it seems to stick to the sock and pull off my feet within a mile),  but if the aforementioned latex patches are put on right they will stay in place for several days (even after getting wet).\n\nAlso as someone else mentioned above, trekking poles (which look like collapsable ski poles) can make a world of difference.  I was a skeptic at first, but use them all the time now while backpacking.  The help provide balance on steep uphill/downhill spots and can take a lot of the strain and weight off your knees.  Unfortunately, these are one of the more overpriced hiking items and it is hard to find a good pair for less than $60.\n\nWhile you are hiking, be sure to stop once per hour or so, take off your boots, and prop your feet up on something (a rock or your pack) for 10 minutes or so.  Not only does this feel great, but it helps improve circulation in your feet and removes some of the lactic acid and other toxins that build up there while hiking.  Also, if you start to feel a blister forming (a 'hot spot') stop and put a patch on it immediately.  Hiking with blisters is no fun.

if you want to run: ASICS. For multiple sports: New Balance, not the specialized ones but the ones with good sole.

Hey TopSpin, it really depends on what kind of foot you have. With that in mind I'll include a link to a similar question that was asked. You'll be able to find my answer and that might help a bit. But when it all comes down to it, the best shoes are the ones that you feel the best in. I play a lot and at one point I was going through a pair of shoes every month or two. I decided to give Wilson shoes a whirl because they have guarantees on most of their shoes. I wasn't a big fan because they were too heavy for my taste. For my foot I really like Nike--and especially their Air Zooms. I don't know if you remember the old Sampras shoes, but those were the greatest. It was like playing in my socks.\n\nIf you want shoes that aren't too expensive, then you can find good shoes in the Nike, Adidas and Wilson lines that aren't too pricey--and they all have shoes with guarantees, although the Nikes and Adidas with guarantees are a bit pricier.\n\nHere's an alternative that I use: I buy two pair of shoes. I buy a really nice pair and then I keep my eyes open for sales or a good less expensive, more durable pair. I then switch them off. I usually go to Tennis Warehouse and look for shoes on liquidation. Here's an example for you:\nI'd get a pair of the older Air Resolve (on liquidation; I'll add the link below) for $60 and then I'd keep my eyes open for other good deals on the liquidation list (you could also check out sites like Holibird Sports; I'll include a link to their close-out page). I have a pair of these Resolves. They've got a six-month guarantee on the outsole and they're pretty comfortable. Plus they've got a solid toe--you mentioned toe-dragging.\n\nGood luck. I know how hard it is to find a shoe that fits well.

Selecting the right tennis racquet for you depends upon your level of play. If you are a beginner, you should start with a power tennis racket . If you have been playing for a while, let's say for a year, you probably should opt for one which gives you more control. Regardless of your level of play, there is a third factor which a tennis player should be aware of: comfort. You should choose a tennis racquet  which fits your physique and level of play and thus you are most comfortable to play with. By choosing the right racket, you also avoid the pain associated with tennis elbow which incidentally afflicts almost 50% of all tennis players in America. So having the knowledge about raquets is important in ensuring that you have the right tennis equipment which will help you tremendously in your quest to be a better tennis player.\n\n\nFor the average player, a combination of power, control, and comfort is probably ideal. \n\nCategory 1: Power Tennis Racquets \n---------------------------------\nManufacturers usually indicate in their packaging or internet description what category the model that they are selling belongs. These racquets feature oversize to super-oversize heads, are lightweight (8-9.5 ounces), longer (27-29 inches), stiffer and are balanced head-heavy (or evenly balanced) to retain enough weight in the hitting zone. These are designed for players with shorter, slower swings and who want more zing and pop. \n\nCategory 2: Control Tennis Racquets \n-----------------------------------\nDenotes tennis racquets that would be used by professional and more advanced players. These models are typically heavier in weight (11.5-13+ ounces), have smaller heads (85-98), thinner, more flexible beams and are balanced head-light to allow for more maneuverability. The result is low-power and designed for players who provide their own power and prefer one that offers more control. Can be standard or extended length. \n\nCategory 3: ‘Tweener Tennis Racquets \n-------------------------------------\nThere are several models that offer a blend of features from power and control racquets. They are often lighter (9.5-11 ounces), balanced anywhere from slightly head-light to slightly head-heavy, have midplus (95-102 square inches) heads and are usually extended length (27.5-28 inches). These models offer low-medium to medium-high power and are most appealing to intermediate-advanced players, seeking enhanced maneuverability.

If u want style then go with the bronsl but if you want decent B-ball shoes then U gotta to go with Kobe's. They are very light and they got good ankle support. The T-macs are terrible and they weigh a ton compared to other shoes.

specific diameter doesn't matter. keep it simple. get an over-sized head (to cut down on misses!) and make sure it is light (to avoid beginners wrist pain) a basic one from any regular sports store is fine. plus, you don't have to buy an expensive one. get like a $40-60 one and see if he likes tennis first!
