I have been an Adidas Stabil fan for almost 10 years but moved to the Asics line of squash shoes because the most recent styles in the Stabil have been rather disappointing (fit, design, style). I tried several Asics styles and this was the best, by far. Snug fit, very secure, and allows you to control your footing with confidence. I currently have the shoes in blue and will most likely buy another pair (probably in white even though the blue as so cool) so that I can alternate between pairs. (I am a 4.5 – 5.0 player, play 2-3/week, ~1.5 h/session).

How is the size of this shoes compared to the adidas stabil? did you buy the same size or is there any difference, thank youj

I bought this model as a replacement for my old asics rocket 5, which I replaced for safety reasons. I have been using the gel blade 4 since April and what impressed me the most when I first used them was the feeling of great lateral support and overall cushioning. I use these shoes at least 5 days a week on all my matches and training rutines and can confidently give them credit on the durability aspect as well as on their performance.

I still like my Gel Blast 3 more.

Hey Pierre,
I had the blue set since July. I ordered through a local pro at a club in Wash DC. But I pre-ordered in January. I can attest to the lightness of the shoe. They’re lighter than my Gel Blast 3s which I favor a tad more.
Pierre Bastien says

Thanks Bill! You favor the 4 or the 3?

I just bought the blue one a few weeks ago and I like it! My friend recommended it to me, it’s neither too heavy nor too light and it gives a great balance.
Thank you for all you posts especially the ones indicating the types and brands of rackets used by the pros…
Keep up the great work, Pierre…! I’m from Malaysia btw and I studied in the States before…

Hey Ammar thanks for giving feedback on these shoes! I still haven’t seen the blue ones for sale at any of my usual stores, but it’s cool they are out in the world now.
