Oh, and the player on the right is using an Oliver squash racket, though I’m not sure which model.

Here’s another good shot of Progressive-on-Progressive action.

Here’s one Greg Marche was wearing, although it appears to be green rather than the blue above. Never found a product photo for this.

    Hi Pierre,
    I have been using the Progressive 1 & 2 for the last few years, I love them as a shoe. They seem to of been discontinued, do you know if they are bringing out a replacement? i have tried the new Asics upcourt and gel-rocket but they have a lot less cushioning and don’t feel anywhere near as good. Getting desperate now as my progressives are on their last legs!
    kind regards,
    Paul

      Hi Paul, I haven’t heard about a new version of the Progressive. Some other shoes in the Asics lineup that have the “I.G.S.” technology are the Gel Blade, Gel Blast, Cyber Sensei, and Volley Elite. I haven’t tried these myself, just trying to give you a thread to follow in terms of shoes that may have a similar construction. Hope that helps a little.

        Hi Pierre,
        thanks for the great info, it’s such a trial and error with shoes, expensive mistakes when I choose wrong! I think I might go crazy and try a pair of Salmings, I will let you know how I get on with the brand change,
        kind regards
        Paul

    Was looking for a new shoe to accommodate my inserts and having tried lots of brands, I was only looking at Asics. Was between progressive 2 and elite volley 2.
    Definitely this over the elite volley for lateral movement.
    As all asics, very comfy, good support across, but the typical issue that may throw some off: when stepping on the court, you feel as if the heel is going to come out.
    While distracting to new asics users, you forget it quickly and doesn’t hinder movement at all
