K-Swiss Women's Express Light Pickleball Shoe

I got these yesturday. Put them on this morning, played pickleball and have kept them on going on 6 hours now without any discomfort at all. I ordered a 7 W because my foot is just wide enough that a regular width is uncomfortable and if there's one thing I hate is an uncomfortable feet. The toe box is more rounded than pointed so my toes are not squished and the insole is slightly padded. The shoe is true to my size and the extra width feels perfect. My last pickleball shoes felt like I was clomping around the court on boards......not good when you want to be light on your feet. They are light weight and yet supportive. The only thing I did notice is that the shoe comes up to my ankle bone but the padding made it comfortable. I don;t know about durability but these will be my go to shoe from now on.

This is my first pair of court shoes and I did not realize how much stiffer court shoes are than running shoes. That said, I found them more comfortable than other court shoes I tried on. I usually wear a size 8.5W in running and hiking shoes. I had to exchange the first pair I ordered because the 8.5W was too big. I have worn them about 2 hours indoors on wood floors and about three hours outdoors on clay courts. I do see where they give me a lot more stability than the running shoes I was playing in. They seem to slide a bit on the heel but I can adjust the laces to fix that. I do wish they came with longer laces.I wanted the Aruba Blue/Maui Blue/Soft Neon Pink shoes but they are not available in Wide. The color of the shoes I bought is Highrise/White but as you can see from the pictures they are pretty solid grey. They are nice looking shoes and lighter than some of the other shoes I tried on.

I have gone through 5+ pairs of shoes looking for some comfortable pickleball shoes. In my search, I have discovered that there IS a noticeable difference between tennis shoes, all court shoes and pickleball specific shoes. Like many that have decided to equip for pickleball, I am used to running shoes. Running shoes have very flexible soles and I like fairly cushioned soles. If your tastes and experience are similar, save yourself done time and rule out those closeout all court shoes. Leave those for the teenagers playing volleyball. Tennis shoes are everywhere and there are tons of options. Tennis shoes, though, are extremely stiff in the sole and upper. These Kswiss pickleball shoes have finally satisfied my needs. They are 1) stiffer than running shoes, but not so stiff that you end up stomping around the court, 2) have good court focused traction, 3) have good cushioning in the sole, 4) have a wide pad of stability and 5) come in several colors that don't look like garbage. General features I like about this shoe: tongue centering loop, decent lace length, extra hole at top for tightening, heel is padded and doesn't slip. Some possible detractors: there is slight rubbing at the ankle as others mentioned, but it was not a bother to me. Also, the toe box is not very square, so that might be an issue if you like a roomy toe box. They are also warmer than I am used to, but I imagine that is the case for most shoes of this style since they are almost all much more reinforced on top than running shoes are. For my tastes and use, this is a great pickleball shoe and meets my needs.

I went through all of the reviews for these shoes and everyone said they are super narrow and you need to size up. I am always a womens US 10 and I ordered a 10 wide because 11 was out of stock. However, the wide was much too wide, and I ended up ordering my regular shoe size anyway and it’s a perfect fit. Very comfortable.

These shoes are very comfortable for playing pickleball. I particularly like to wide toe box which is difficult to find in other brands.

I was hoping to love these shoes but they are too narrow in the toe box for me. I will see if they carry a wide (but then it will probably be too wide for the rest of my foot as the fit felt good except for my little toes).

Very comfortable! The design hàs lots of grip and stability. I feel safe on the court in these shoes. Plus my game improved immediately!I bought 1/2 size smaller than normal so they're snug. I don't like my feet sliding around when I have to react quickly. I only wear them when I play pickleball, but they're so comfortable I'm planning on buying anoth pair to wear around town. I highly recommend them!

With the wide toe box, this is a very comfortable shoe for my foot. If the sole didn't wear out so quickly, it would be perfect.

Great court show for price! Hope it improves my Pickle Ball game!

Comfortable and supportive.

Perfect fit.Received in delay as promised.My first experience with K-Swiss: light and confortable, like it!

I bought a pair in June 2023 and liked them so much I bought another pair at the end of March 2024 mainly because I had so much difficulty getting the 4.5 size I needed the first time, I wanted to have a pair ready for when the first pair needed replacing.I am very disappointed to find that after just 12 months of fairly light use and I am not a heavy person, the right shoe has a hole appearing above my little toe and my sock is visible through it. These are not cheap shoes and I think it unreasonable that they barely lasted 12 months. It may be that this was a weakness in the manufacturing and I was unlucky but I would be interested to hear Amazon's thoughts on this.

Good traction shoe for on the Pickleball court
