Looking for tennis gear suggestions (lemmy.world)

Hello! I'm a beginner tennis player looking for a racket and some shoes. I technically played growing but it's been about a decade since I stopped. I used to use Adidas Barricade (I think) and a Wilson Hammer. I liked the heavy head. But it's been a very long time, and everything has changed since I last played. Just wondering what's a good racket for beginners or intermediate.

For shoes, I'm considering On Roger Pro since they feel better on my wide feet than the current Adidas Barricade, but open to suggestions as well.

Do you know which Pro Staff you have currently? I checked online and they seem to range in price from $150 to $400 (AUD).

As for the K-Swiss Hypercourt, I do notice that it's recommended for wide feet in a lot of reviews. Unfortunately I can't seem to find it in a physical store near me to try them on.

I have the v13, but the v14 isn't very different. I have the regular Pro Staff: https://www.tennis-warehouse.com/Wilson_Pro_Staff_97_v14/descpageRCWILSON-W97V14.html
