Whats underneath the Fila Mondo Forza tennis shoe? Check them out for yourself with this deep dive on court playtest, review, teardown and durability test. As a foot doctor I look at tennis shoes and tennis shoe technology a bit differently as I focus more on what foot types benefit from these shoes as well as the tennis shoe's functional attributes on the tennis court
Some of the main areas we cover in this tennis shoe shoe playtest, and performance review of the Fila Mondo Forza
- The weight, durability, fit and playability
- What are the features of the insole, midsole, and outsole

I watched Alexi Popyrin using these at the US open, he actually slipped on a crucial point and lost the match. He has been wearing Nike's again since. I remember an Adidas skate shoe in very late 90s with similar sole . It open slightly more aggressively and skate desks are a lot gripier though.

Honestly I’m pretty disappointed in Fila not making basketball shoes. I get they’re a power house in tennis but I would to see what a Fila bball sneaker looks like with modern technology.

Brand loyalty issues. Just see Sketchers and Reebok. Yes these two brands one got into the basketball game and the other came back (and they have shaq and iverson), yet no one seemed to care too much. Only the super hardcore basketball fans that actually care who gets signed or oldheads would go for them but they ain’t cheap nor are they objectively better than other hoop shoes on the market. If fila were to go down the basketball route, they will see the same issues sketchers did unless they go the puma route where they let the signature players (lamelo, scoot) do whatever they want outside the realms of what they would normally do but then the name fila just doesn’t ring compared to puma. Also you have to consider, a brand needs something to make themselves stand out from the rest or a reason to buy them. Under Armour have Curry, Puma have Lamelo, Nike and Adidas are tried and tested and signing for a brand like Jordan or New Balance, you get the whole catalog of shoes to wear from the brand. Chinese brands have a different audience and demographic to appeal for while underrated brand like Asics basketball is extremely popular in markets like Japan and China for their simplistic design that appeal to school use (like schools with strict dress codes). I do not see any of these applying to fila. Like do you want to see any of your favourite players rocking up to a game in a pair of fila disruptors 😂?

Ik this is off the topic the of the video but I was wondering if you have any basketball shoe recommendations for someone with ankles that kind of go in and are inverted? Super low cut shoes when playing ball hurt my ankles and I think the insole shape affects it as well but I’m not sure .

I have used these now for a few play sessions strictly for pickleball and I’m definitely not disappointed. They’re actually pretty agile and the extra foam on the sole as you mentioned does leave my feet feeling refreshed after matches with no foot strain or pain. The sound like you mentioned is unique. Reminds me of DJ’s scratching records! 🫣 I have had maybe 1 noticeable play where the sole did not grip as I expected, other than that I have had no issues. The shoe does wrap around the top of the foot and it does feel substantial. I would say it’s on the more “snug” side. I can get plenty tie/cinch down with these and with that extra material as you noted I’ve had to back off a bit on the “pressure” used to tie down as the shoe does wrap the foot pretty well. Plenty of on court compliments on the look of the shoes..everyone’s like “what are those?”!! 🤣

The outsole remind me of classic tennis shoe converse Jack Purcell, it looks smooth, but when you flex it, the rubber is actually cut like a herring bone.
