The Wilson Rush Lite 5 is the lightest and most forgiving shoe in Wilson's Rush tennis family. It brings Rush speed and stability into a fresh, easy fit for players of every level: EndoFit midfoot support, a single-layer engineered mesh upper that adapts to different foot shapes, and an RDST+ midsole over a thick drop-in sockliner. At about 403 g it is roughly 70 g lighter than the Rush Pro 5 and Rush Tour 5, and it comes in all-court and clay versions.
Below is every Rush Lite 5 colorway we carry at Racquet Point, all-court and clay, in men's US sizes 7 to 14. Wilson footwear ships free on orders over $75.
What makes the Rush Lite 5 different
Wilson built the Rush Lite 5 for players who want to play fast and stay comfortable without the weight of a full stability shoe.

Fast play, instant comfort
EndoFit midfoot support adds light, reliable structure, and the single-layer engineered mesh upper adapts to different foot shapes for an easy, natural fit straight out of the box.

Responsive comfort, fresh legs
A thick EVA drop-in sockliner made from supercompressed foam pairs with a responsive RDST+ midsole. Together they absorb impact and keep the ride bright and bouncy through long rallies.

Quick moves, all-court grip
A TPU Speed Plate helps propulsion on quick transitions. Underfoot, a Duralast high-abrasion rubber outsole gives reliable traction, and a medial drag pad protects the shoe on slides and quick stops.

Rush Lite 5 vs Rush Pro 5 vs Rush Tour 5
All three share Wilson's Rush fit. What separates them is how much structure sits under the foot and what the shoe weighs.
| Model | MSRP | Stability | Midsole | Upper | Sample weight | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Rush Tour 5 | $210 | Dual Axis Speed Carbon chassis, 4D Flex Carbon | Super foam, drop-in | Gammaweave mesh | 475 g / 16.8 oz | Advanced players who want maximum lateral support |
| Rush Pro 5 | $170 | TPU stability chassis, TPU Speed Plate | Dual-density, drop-in | Engineered sandwich mesh | 476 g / 16.8 oz | Competitive club players who want stability and durability |
| Rush Lite 5 | $135 | EndoFit midfoot support, TPU Speed Plate | RDST+ with EVA drop-in sockliner | Single-layer engineered mesh | 403 g / 14.2 oz | Quick players who want a lighter, forgiving all-court shoe |
The short version
All-court or clay?
The all-court Rush Lite 5 suits hard courts and mixed surfaces. The Rush Lite 5 Clay keeps the same forgiving fit, sockliner and RDST+ midsole but uses a clay-specific Duralast outsole for traction on clay and Har-Tru. If most of your tennis is on clay, choose the clay version.
Fit and sizing
The single-layer mesh upper gives the Rush Lite 5 the most forgiving fit in the Rush family, which makes it a good choice for a range of foot shapes. Sizes run US 7 to 12.5 in half sizes, plus 13 and 14, with exact availability shown on each colorway.
