Asics squash shoes are used by many top pros and club players.
Asics make non-marking indoor court shoes and market their shoes primarily towards volleyball and handball players, but they are widely used by squash players and now also pickleball players.
All their non-marking shoes are appropriate for playing on squash courts, and many of the Asics models are popular with squash players. I also have a separate page for Asics mid-top shoes with more ankle support.

These are the shoes that have come out from Asics for the 2019 – 2020 season.
Asics Sky Elite FF
The Sky Elite FF is new for 2019, from the Asics volleyball range. Turns out this is descended from the Asics Gel Volley Elite, but Asics changed the name because it was popular for other sports besides volleyball. Spotted around $120 (US).
Asics Netburner Ballistic FF
There are several new Netburner Ballistic FF shoes for 2019. These cost around $130 (US) / €115.
Asics Blast FF
There are a few new models of the Blast FF. These cost around $120 (US) / £80 .
Spotted
Asics Gel Blade 7
The Gel Blade 7 is a continuation of the long-running Blade series. This one of the few shoes Asics actually markets as a squash shoe. Several pros played with the prior version of this. Around $120 (US).
Asics Gel Fastball 3
The Fastball 3 has become popular with the pros. $120 (US) / £80. Here are a couple new models for 2019:
Spotted
Asics Gel Beyond 5
Asics has come out with new Gel Beyond 5 models for 2019. These shoes have been popular with squash pros, especially on the women’s side. For some reason Asics did not create a Gel Beyond 6 this year, they just introduced some new colors for the Beyond 5. These are around $110 (US).
Asics Gel Tactic 2
The Tactic 2 will set you back about $80-90. These are the shoes I’m playing with in 2019. They’re not too expensive and they have a bit more cushioning and stability than the Gel Rockets below.
Spotted
Asics Gel Task 2
The original Asics Gel Task used to be pretty popular with the pros back in the day. Asics finally got around to releasing an updated model and they look pretty nice. These will set you back around €75.
Asics Gel Rocket 9
The Gel Rocket 9 first came out in 2019, but it’s part of the long-running Asics Gel Rocket line. This is a less-expensive shoe (around $65 US / €60 ) that has been popular over the years due to is “good-value-for-money” status. New models of the Rocket 9 were released in 2020 as well.
Spotted
Asics Upcourt 3
The Upcourt line is Asics’s least-expensive shoe (around $55 US). It’s not super durable or padded, but it gets the job done, and it comes in a variety of colors. Asics is still on the Upcourt 3 model this year, but they’ve added some new colors for the 2019 – 2020 season in men’s, women’s and junior versions.

What about Asics Attack Dominate FF (and recently FF 2)?
They’re such nice shoes:
top quality, great grip & stability, very light (~230gr!), ultra breathable
and much-much comfortable!

What are the pros wearing?
Jason says

most pros wear the asics fastball 3 (pretty much just elshorbagy brothers), adidas shoes or salming shoes.
Simon says

Currently have progressive 2 shoes but need to replace them. What would you recommend as a replacement as I’ve been very happy with them

Hi Pierre, just bought a pair asics flare…. Whats your opinion for this shoes?? I prefer a Rocket, but they were only indoor shoes left, that I could buy in my country.
Best regards,
Andres M.

Hi Andres, I never heard of the Asics Flare before! I will keep an eye out for it.

Jabba the nick says

Hey Pierre, what about the gel progressive? I get a lot of request for squash shoes that will fit very wide feet as well as more cushioning. Any suggestions? Best regards, Jabba the nick.
Pierre Bastien says

Hi Jabba, good call — I forgot the Progressive, and Fireblast too! I haven’t tried either so I’m not sure on the sizing, but I think the feedback on Asics is they are generally best for narrow feet. I’ve heard good things about Prince shoes for wide feet.
