Who should buy the K-Swiss Hypercourt Express

The K-Swiss Hypercourt Express isn’t only fully functional on any court setup but aesthetically pleasing too. It is a solid option if you:

• Look for a new pair that offers an attractive selection of colorways using state-of-the-art tech mesh and synthetic exterior.
• Veering away from the traditional .

Profile of the K-Swiss Hypercourt Express

The K-Swiss Hypercourt Express is a leveled-up version of the highly-acclaimed Ultra Express and a descendant of the Ultrashot or the modern version of the 1960s K-Swiss tennis trainer. The Hypercourt Express is designed with a more supportive, breathable, and stylish upper than its predecessors. 

Veering away from the traditional white-toned tennis shoes, this footgear is offered in an attractive selection of colorways using state-of-the-art tech mesh and a synthetic exterior.

Its midsole is virtually unchanged and maintains the same plush cushioning and a comfortable bounce-back gel-like feel. 

Providing flexible comfort when propelling in multi-directions, this modified cut has a high-density outsole that’s suitable on clay and hard court surfaces.  

For added durability and stabilizing support against excessive toe-dragging, this shoe is made with the DuraWrap technology.

One special edition

The high-wearing Aosta rubber compound offers the needed hold and grip that works on any court setup. It’s constructed with a non-marking tread pattern that keeps the court surface scuff-free. 

Add a product

The full-length herringbone layout prevents unwanted slips. Such a tread pattern lets the foot slide without difficulty. 

Allows the user to twist and spin with ease

all court tennis shoes.

Lightweight cushioning

Taking up the entire midsole expanse is the customary EVA (ethylene vinyl acetate) foam that’s responsible for reducing impact and foot discomfort. As opposed to rubber, this material comes lighter which eliminates the chances of weighing the foot down.

Shock-absorbing cushioning

Complementing the EVA sponge, which is the primary source of shock absorption, is the Ortholite X40 sock liner. This insole offers a high rebound. It is rated with a 40 percent elasticity rating which makes it more responsive than the usual kind. With its open-cell formulation, this removable foam has the capacity to wick moisture. Thus, it surrounds the foot with an airy and dry environment. 

Durable and flexible

In terms of support, this athletic footgear is secured with a 180 PSC (Plantar Support Chassis). Such a support unit is made of a TPU chassis that prevents the foot from rotating abruptly. This system provides the user with the security needed during intense training sessions and matches.

Excellent ventilation

The Hypercourt Express uses the SeamFree tech, an advanced heat-welded process wherein layers of TPU are bonded onto the ventilated mesh. A significant percentage of the overlay is wrapped around the midfoot that works as a cage for protection and lockdown comfort.

One special edition

Adding an extra layer of defense against foot-dragging is the DuraWrap. This is an extremely durable and flexible polyurethane material strategically placed in high-wear zones on the upper. Matching this is the DragGuard that works as a reinforcement on the toe area. A slip-resistant textile is lined along the collar that gives the ankle and heel a comfortable fit. 

Firmly lodged around the rear part of the collar is the Heel Grip Lining. As its name implies, this feature hugs the heel tightly inside the shoe for enhanced fit and stability. The stay-tied laces technology is a unique shoestring setup that gives this shoe a customized fit.
