Diadora's premium performance shoe blends support and stability, with comfort and improved ventilation. A great all-around option for all levels of players.
Diadora's premium performance shoe, the Speed B.Icon 2 gets updated with some slight changes to the upper and Diadora's anatomical insole for shock proof cushion. Taking the midsole superfoam from their premium running shoes and infusing it into the B.Icon, you'll find great shock absorption, while also being extremely light, and responsive. The D-Skin upper material hugs the foot uniformly to help maximize the support, and to reduce stress on pressure points. An outer hook on the lateral side of the shoe is connected to the lacing system, which helps to lock-in the heels, and boost support around the ankles. Tried and true Duratech 5000 rubber compound provides a high level of wear resistance, and plenty of traction on a variety of court surfaces.
- Upper: D-Skin technology encompasses Air Mesh for ventilation, with Net Skin on top to hug the foot with support.
- Midsole: DD Anima ultra light and responsive foam, provides a high level of cushion, and explosive energy return. CCB maximizes stability for aggressive changes of direction. Anatomical shock proof EVA Insole for enhanced comfort underfoot. Anatomical designed insole formed out of shockproof EVA foam, for plush comfort.
- Outsole: Duratech 5000 rubber compound in a modified herringbone pattern for optimal traction and durability on all court surfaces.
- Color: Pageant Blue / White

Customer Reviews
Great shoeI have a very wide forefoot and narrow ankle and heel, so shoe fit is difficult for me. Chronic toe banger, which is no fun. With this model (as well as their discontinued kangaroo leather model) I didn't have to worry about that at all. Super comfortable. They also lasted forever. I get a couple of months out of my shoes, max. With these, I bought two pairs and they lasted 51 weeks with a little Shoe Goo here and there.
Magic is gone.I used to love Diadora. They were Italian supremacy in tennis shoe form. Like the Ferragamo of tennis shoes. That was 20 years ago. Now they seem cheap, gimmicky and have lost that immediate luxurious comfort. These were on sale. I took one last chance but they disappointed. Compared to most all other brands they are plasticky, hard to thread and they don’t fit well. I tried them on (yuck) and immediately put them back in the box to return. The magic is gone
