The Wilson Sensation 15G in Natural (660 ft / 200 m Reel) is the most durable and stable version of the Sensation family. While most multifilaments focus on being thin and soft, the 15-gauge (1.35 mm) is designed for players who love the "pillowy" feel of Sensation but find that thinner versions break far too quickly.
Performance Profile
- Comfort (9/10): While the extra thickness makes it feel slightly firmer than a 17G, it remains one of the softest strings on the market, offering exceptional vibration dampening.
- Durability (7/10): This is the "tank" of the Sensation line. The 1.35 mm diameter provides a massive amount of material to wear through, making it the most long-lasting multifilament Wilson offers.
- Control (8/10): Because the string is thicker and less "stretchy" than thinner gauges, it offers a more predictable launch angle and better directional control.
- Power (7/10): It still provides the signature Sensation "pop," but with a more controlled, dampened energy return compared to the trampoline-like feel of the 17G.
Best Suited For
- Heavy" Hitters with Arm Sensitivity: If you hit the ball hard enough to snap 16G strings but suffer from tennis elbow and cannot use polyester, this is your best solution.
- Oversize Racquet Users: Larger racquet heads (105+ sq in) have longer string lengths that tend to break strings faster; the 15G provides the necessary bulk to handle those longer spans.
- Value-Focused Frequent Players: Buying a 15G reel is the ultimate "utility" move—the strings last longer in the racquet, and the reel price reduces the cost per stringing.
- Beginner-Intermediate All-Court Players: Those who want a reliable, soft string bed that won't require a trip to the stringer every other week.
Why Choose 15G over 16G?
The 15G is all about longevity and stability. If you find that 16G Sensation feels a bit too "lively" or breaks within a few sessions, the 15G will provide a more consistent, solid hitting experience that stays in the racquet longer while still protecting your arm.
