Take your game to the next level with the Nike Zoom GP Challenge 1—a high-performance tennis shoe designed for power players who need durability, stability, and responsive support on hard courts. Built for athletes who play with intensity, this model delivers a locked-in feel and reliable traction for high-impact movement.
The Zoom GP Challenge 1 features a reinforced upper constructed from a mix of synthetic materials and breathable mesh. This combination offers durability where you need it most—around the toe and sides—while maintaining ventilation to keep your feet cool during long matches or training sessions. The upper also includes molded sidewalls to support aggressive lateral cuts and explosive recovery steps.
Underfoot, the Zoom Air unit in the forefoot provides responsive cushioning to absorb shock and enhance rebound with each step. This helps reduce fatigue and keeps your foot energized for quick transitions, sprints to the net, and defensive slides. Paired with a soft, cushioned midsole, the shoe strikes a perfect balance between comfort and court feel.
A major highlight of the Zoom GP Challenge 1 is its data-informed rubber outsole, built with a durable herringbone tread pattern for enhanced grip on hard court surfaces. Whether you’re sliding wide or stopping short, the traction pattern helps maintain control in all directions.
Additional features include a padded collar and tongue for a snug, comfortable fit and a stable heel design to keep your foot secure during dynamic motion. The internal lacing structure and sidewall reinforcements keep your foot locked in, allowing you to focus fully on your performance.
Visually, the Zoom GP Challenge 1 showcases a sleek and modern Nike aesthetic, with clean lines and bold detailing that bring energy and confidence to every match. It’s a go-to choice for competitive players who want a shoe that’s just as tough and fast as they are.
