RUBLAST rubber
When you move around the court you sometimes drag your shoes along the ground, which makes the sole wear out faster. The surfaces you play on are also abrasive.
The outsole is made from ultra-robust RUBLAST rubber.
Reinforced upper
For safer sliding and directional changes, plus enhanced robustness, the upper has been reinforced with high-resistance KPU, especially at the toes and instep.
Pebax® material
The shoes feature a resin plate (Pebax®) under the foot for increased propulsion.
The Pebax Powered® programme showcases the high performance of the Pebax® material for athletes. Pebax® and Pebax Powered® are registered trademarks of Arkema.

Lateral CS technology
The result of many years' research & development with Artengo and Decathlon SportsLab, the patented LATERAL Cushioning System (Lateral CS) concept guarantees long-lasting, reduced impact on the ground for tennis players.
Mechanical studies carried out on players during play have shown that a high impact robustness foam, positioned at the heel, can reduce impact on the ground by 13% compared with the 2019 version of the TS 990.
Insole
Thermoformed insole perfectly fits the heel and arch. Comfortable, long-lasting and lightweight (PU polyurethane).
Laces
Easily tighten your shoes using the flat laces for better support.
Our resistance to wear test
The shoes are tested in the lab on a machine that has been specially developed to reproduce the type of heel, forefoot, toe, and instep wear seen in a tennis match.
These shoes are the model in the Artengo Women's range that withstood the most cycles. They are the most robust.
Our cushioning test
The shoes are tested in a lab on a machine that reproduces the impact of the heel when playing tennis using an 8 kg impactor. The greater the acceleration, the greater the impact suffered by the body.
Our user comfort test
These shoes are tested blind by a representative panel of female tennis players. They evaluate the level of comfort in terms of how the shoe fits and how soft it is (from the very first time worn).
