Men/Kids   Women
  2A Narrow
Narrow B Standard
Standard D Wide
Wide 2E Extra Wide
Extra Wide 4E  

The standard (medium) width for women is B, while the standard width for men is D. Shoe boxes and labels will only identify widths other than standard. Within the shoes, wide and narrow widths are identified on the label, underneath the tongue — ie. T005N(2E).

When is additional width needed?

Visible stretching or bulging on the outsides of forefoot materials is a good indicator that additional width may be needed. These sizes are available in many of our Running and Training shoes. In some cases, men can wear women’s styles to achieve a narrow fit and women can wear men’s to get a wide. If this is needed, please use the references above to determine comparable size lengths.

Please note that the differences of width between narrow, standard, wide, and extra wide are usually only a couple millimeters and are proportional to the size of the shoe. Most additional width will be found in the forefoot.

Product Details

The GEL-CHALLENGERâ„¢ 14 tennis shoe is suited for the beginner to mid-level tennis athlete who controls the game from the baseline. It offers high durability and good stability for multi-directional movements.

The shoe's supportive upper keeps your feet locked-in on the shoe's platform. It creates a reinforced feel during volleys or when you're dropping back to track down deep lob shots.

DYNAWINGâ„¢ support technology is placed in the sidewall to improve stability during side-to-side movements. This feature offers good support, so you can step into your shot and stroke the ball with more pace.

The separated heel construction on the outsole helps produce a more stable landing for quicker recoveries in between shots. The outsole design is suited for all types of court surfaces (mainly hard court).



Width: B standard - STANDARD

A women’s standard shoe width is B, a wide fit is a D and wider again is 2E. In New Zealand the most common shoe width size* for women in running shoes is a D fit.Find out more about widths.

pronation

Pronation is part of the natural movement of the human body and refers to the way your foot rolls inward for impact distribution upon landing. Understanding your pronation type can help you find a comfortable running shoe. The GEL-CHALLENGER 14 (HARDCOURT) is made for Neutral.

HOW YOUR FOOT CONTACTS THE GROUND

The foot lands on the outside of the heel, then rolls inward (pronates) to absorb shock and support body weight.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Agnesj from Width Love the look & style, too narrow had to return them

Rated 4 out of 5 by Cringe Momma from Bottom heavy They are nice looking, and fit well but are bottom heavy, not springy or light enough

Rated 3 out of 5 by hojora from Nice fit, but smelly. They fit well, but they got stinky very fast. I’ve never had a pair of asics stink so bad.

Rated 1 out of 5 by JenS13 from Gel Challenger… Stick with the 13 vs 14 The challenger 14 is completely different that the 13. No more mesh so the shoe feels too stiff and too tight. Bring back the mesh!!

Rated 3 out of 5 by pear from Ok I am devoted to ASICS- but these are a bit of a miss for me. Still breaking them in (I don’t usually need to with Asics) & Cute, but a bit stiff and not as comfy as my last pair of gel asics. Also the uppers are nearly solid so they dont breathe as well. May have to get something else for summer.

Rated 5 out of 5 by JC25 from Tennis shoes I've found tennis shoes that don't need wearing in. When I wear the tread out I just order these same shoes again. Challenger-Gel. Been happy with many pairs over the years.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Pinging from Comfortable tennis shoes This is my first time getting the gel challenger. I am very satisfied with the fitting and comfort of this shoes. No break in.

Rated 3 out of 5 by HarryG from Court wear [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The soles wear out within a couple of months on hard courts.
