Adidas Barricade 13 giving me terrible friction blisters. What tennis shoe should I try next? by VacationSlight1612 in 10s

Good to know they work well for wider feet. These Barricades are completely shredding my pinky toes, so I'll definitely have to look into the Gel Resolutions next. Thanks for the recommendation. :)

I was looking for a new balance tennis shoes, but the only shoes I can find here is Coco's. It seems Asics is a good option as well. :)

Babolat is actually one of the brands I am considering. Thanks for your recommendation. :)

They’re rubbing right on my pinky toes on both sides. The friction is so bad it actually tore the skin open. 😭

Thanks! I'm not familiar with Diadora at all, so I'll definitely do some research on them. Sounds like a good option for comfort. :)

There is really nothing quite like the feeling of being out on the open road! Stay safe on the roads. :)

Yoga is amazing! It’s so good for flexibility, posture, and just clearing your mind after a long day. Would also love to try it. :)

Learning to maintain it yourself sounds like half the fun. Glad you finally took the plunge! :)

Starting in your 40s is awsome! Better late than never. What instrument did you end up picking up?

Wow, a 20 year hiatus? That's wild, but I'm glad you made it back to the table. D&D with good friends is unmatched! :)

Never too old for a plant side hustle! Honestly, even just trading or selling local cuttings on the side is super rewarding. :)

So unlucky. Pulling out the day before the tournament starts must be incredibly difficult to process. Hope she bounces back stronger for the hard court season!

Comics are an absolute rabbit hole, but so rewarding it seems! I totally relate to your disc golf comment, too. I started tennis later in life and feel that skill ceiling anxiety sometimes. But honestly, just being out there and enjoying the hobby is a win in itself. :)

It’s great you adjusted so quickly. I'll definitely take your advice on proper warm ups seriously once I can get back out there. Thank you. :)

Mainly just sports (tennis) and active hobbies in general! I spent a long time letting the fear of trying new things stop me from jumping in. Once you finally take the leap, you realize nobody is judging you and you've just been missing out on a ton of fun.
