 Previous Message Pickleball may require more quick shifts in movement, but in the end it's still the same thing as tennis when it comes to proper footwear on what is essentially the same court surface. No need to overthink this. But for the love of all that is good and pure...just don't wear running shoes when playing either tennis or pickleball.  Previous Message One, that pickleball shoes have a bit more stability for lateral movement, and two, that pickeball shoes are just cheaply made tennis shoes that haven't had much research and development put into them. I think I want to try a pair of On Cloud shoes.  Previous Message Pickleball courts and tennis courts are essentially the same surface. Shoes for both sports are the same.  Previous Message  Previous Message 16yo girl plays for high school team. $100 or less.
