One of the most popular multifilaments of all time
This is one of the most popular, time-tested multifilaments ever made. It offers optimal comfort, touch, power, and feel. According to Wilson, NXT offers a 10% increased sweet spot over traditional synthetic gut, as well as 74% less vibration. Players with slow to moderate swing speeds will benefit from the power of NXT. It's also great for all types of players that love the classic gut-like feel of a multifilament, as well as being a great option for polyester string users as part of a hybrid. Tennis elbow sufferers looking for a softer, more comfortable string should also give NXT a try. The thinner 17 gauge will offer even more comfort and feel, but less durability than the 16 gauge.
- Gauge: 16/1.30mm
- Length: 660ft/200m
- Construction: Multifilament Xycro Micro fibers bonded with polyurethane

Comments: Wilson NXT is one of the best multifilaments I have ever used. I am an ex-collegiate tennis player and now coach. I do still play competitively also. A lot of people will talk about durability with this string. Here is what I have observed through using it myself and stringing client's equipment. For 2.0-4.0 men/women's drills/leagues, this string is perfect. It doesn't move, offers nice access to spin, durable, and very comfortable to the body. When you start to get above 4.0 into players that hit more spin and power, the durability of this string will drastically go down. I assume that most advanced players stringing their own rackets or stringers know that full beds of NXT are not sustainable. This leads to my experience with it. I strung it in a Wilson Blade 18x20 with Luxilon Alu Power Rough in the mains 52 lbs and Wilson NXT Comfort in the crosses at 54 lbs pre stretched. This setup was absolutely amazing. The 18x20 Blade naturally lacks spin sometimes but with this setup I did not have trouble. NXT Comfort is the perfect cross string to soften the string bed a little bit and also liven it up. If you are someone who has tried this string and didn't like the durability, I would highly recommend hyrbiding with a string like Luxilon Alu Power. You will be in for a treat.

Comments: I started stringing my Prince Tour ESP 100 with this string at 60 lbs mains and 57 lbs crosses. I found it very consistent with hardly any separation after hitting. It seems to hold tension very well. I had negative feelings about 2 years ago with this string but glad I decided to try it again.
