Comfort, style and support. They have it all - and a choice of colors!
I had a new pair of tennis shoes that I saved in the box 'just in case' when I quit playing tennis, but when I pulled them out, the sole had hardened and wasn't going to cut it, so I needed a new pair of shoes before I could play pickleball without hurting myself. (I did try and they stuck on the court and tweaked my foot - so watch that - court shoes are different for each sport). This is the 5th pair of pickleball shoes I ordered since no one had any in a store here to try on - frustrating! The others were either short or narrow in the toes (one of them was a different style of K-Swiss), and looked good but weren't really supportive. My feet need better.Feeling desperate by now and not willing to play again without proper shoes, a friend let me try her pair for fit with my orthotics. Her feet are more narrow than mine and she got these for bunion room and swears by them. They seemed like they were going to work so I ordered a pair for myself. Good move. I got them, played in them and Wow! I love them.The K-Swiss Express Lite pickleball shoe is super comfortable AND supportive. The toe box is rounder to not pinch (I have 'duck' feet), and the heel is still normal so I don't slip out of them. The stabilizer band under the arch adds a surprising amount of security to prevent rolling sideways with quick change movements. There is plenty of room for my high arches, and they are attractive. I hope they keep making them, but I may get a backup pair to make sure I have them!

Great 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.

Marshmallow-Level Comfort with Court-Ready Performance!
These shoes looked exactly like the picture : clean, stylish, and high quality right out of the box. I’ve worn them quite a few times now, and the soles still have the original grip pattern. That’s impressive considering how quickly my other pickleball shoes wore down. These feel way more durable than anything I’ve had before.Comfort-wise? Next level. It honestly feels like walking on marshmallows, so soft and supportive. I finally get why older folks love K-Swiss! They’re true to size (I followed the size chart), and I didn’t have to break them in at all. I was ready to hit the court on day one.When it comes to actual play, the performance is great, excellent grip, nice stability, and super breathable. Whether you’re a beginner or someone who plays regularly, these are a game-changer. I 100% recommend them.

Great sneaker!!
I just started taking Pickleball lessons. This sneakers are so comfortable! They are lightweight and have a good cushion. I got the pink ones in my usual sizes. They truly felt great the first time I wore them.

comfy in some places but...
comfy around heel and ankle BUT the tongue slides down which means my foot is in contact with the laces where they are tied at the top--a little uncomfy here. These have lasted me almost the year--now there is wear on the big toe side where the outsole is wearing down through the layers. ive added my own insole for additional cushion

True to size with wide toe box
Comfortable sneaker. Good ankle support. Wide toe boxRuns true to size. I am normally a 7 or a 7 1/2 and have a slight bunion. The size 7 was perfect. I wore them last night to play three hours worth of Pickleball and they provided excellent support.
