Skechers Men's Viper Court-Athletic Indoor Outdoor Pickleball Shoes with Arch Fit Support Sneaker, White/Black, 11 X-Wide

I originally purchased and wore the K-Swiss pickleball shoes. The K-Swiss felt very toe heavy and like I was wearing lead weights and had zero cushioning between my foot and the soles of the shoe. After a few months of wearing those I had to find something more comfortable and easier on my knees. I prefer light weight running shoes but they wear out quickly on the court surface. I decided to try the Sketchers and am very happy with the comfort and court performance so far. Right away they felt lighter and the arch support and cushioning were considerably better than the K-Swiss which IMO have none of that. I wear a 14 and my shoes are typically big and heavy. While these only came in just under an ounce lighter than the K-Swiss, the weight is more evenly distributed throughout the shoe and they felt much lighter than expected. I can’t speak to longevity but, the price is reasonable and much lower compared to other pickleball shoes I have found online. Certainly less expensive than the K-Swiss which I clearly wouldn’t recommend.Overall I like the look and comfort these provide. These held up and stuck to the tennis court surface just fine with no marking, squeaking or excessive wear that I have read about on other reviews. If I only get a few months out of them so be it. Better than months of extra knee pain and discomfort wearing the K-Swiss. I would recommend these based on my experience and will update if that changes.*** UPDATE*** Played for about a week now, indoor and outdoor. Glad to say the shoes are holding up just fine, no noticeable wear on the soles from the tennis court surface or toes cracking and looking worn out like i saw in another review. They played very well indoor on a basketball court as well. Still would highly recommend.****Update****It’s been about 3-4 months of solid play 2-4 times a week typically 2-5 hours at a time plus one tournament. So far these have held up, no cracks and barely any noticeable wear on the soles and I’ve played the majority of my PB on a newly surfaced tennis court. I’m looking at buying the new version more so for the color and style, these still fit and feel good, just that bright yellow really stands out somedays. Still very much recommended and definitely would recommend over the K-Swiss.

Good fit and support. I have only worn these for indoor pickleball, so far. Feet don’t hurt after a couple of hours of play. Traction is good on wood and concrete floors, a little less good on tile floors. I really don’t think about them during play, so I believe they are serving my purpose well.Will have to wait until spring to find out what they are like outdoors.Update: After having these for a year and a couple months, they have begun to break down and split along sole/side at the toe on both shoes. The sole has lost most of its tread at the ball of the foot. The insole has worn down in the heel and ball of the foot to the point of providing no cushion.I have worn these three or four times a week, indoors and outdoors. The traction is great outdoors, good on tile and less than desirable on one wood gym floor.I may research and try another shoe, but may be just as happy to buy another pair of these.

I just bought these and have played in them a few times and they are very comfortable. The Goodyear tread appears to be holding up well. The only reason for the 4-star rating for support is I fell the toe box needs some improvement in that they feel a little wide. To get the support I need there I really have to lace them up tight, but if I go too tight the laces seem to hurt my feet. So far, I'm very satisfied with the shoe overall.

I play pickleball 4-5 times a week for about three hours each session and this is my second pair. The fit is great and I love the high arch support. I’m not sure what to expect in terms of durability but 6 months seems to be about it for me. Light and comfortable.

Will be used for Pickle Ball and we’re the correct size. Are comfortable!

The most comfortable shoes I've ever had. great for playing pickleball.
