Babolat · Budget
Shadow Spirit 2
The budget Babolat keeps the Michelin outsole, the rocker sole and a reinforced inner toe guard at £65 list in the UK. It is light at 295 g in EU 42.5 and comfortable for a beginner or an occasional player; the single-density EVA will feel flat sooner than the Tour's dual-density midsole.

Check first
- No wide version: if your little toe presses the upper in a lunge, look at a wide-fit model.
- Entry-level midsole with no plate: fine for beginners, limiting once you train hard.
