The Babolat Jet Tere 2 Clay in "Mombeo Blue" is a high-performance tennis shoe designed specifically for speed, agility, and comfort on clay surfaces. It is currently the lightest model in Babolat's footwear lineup, weighing approximately 325 grams (approx. 11.5 oz).
Key Technologies
- Michelin Premium Rubber: Developed in partnership with Michelin, the outsole features a specialized rubber compound that offers the highest level of durability and traction specifically for the sliding demands of clay courts.
- KPRS-X System: An EVA foam insert strategically placed under the heel to protect against repeated impact and provide high-quality cushioning.
- Active Flexion: A patented technology by Babolat that segments the sole into 9 key pressure points to ensure maximum responsiveness and connection to the court.
- Single Layer Mesh Upper: Constructed from 100% recycled polyester, the breathable mesh keeps the foot cool during intense rallies while maintaining a streamlined profile.
- Pro Shield Protection: A thick, molded rubber guard on the inner forefoot and toe area to prevent premature wear for players who drag their feet.
- OrthoLite® Molded Insole: Adapts to the shape of the foot for long-term comfort and better moisture management.
Performance Summary
- Pros: Exceptional breathability, virtually no break-in period required, and elite-level speed for baseline "grinders" and net-rushers.
- Cons: Because it prioritizes lightness, players looking for maximum ankle stability or "heavy-duty" lateral support (like the Babolat Propulse series) may find it a bit soft.
