I've purchased lots of pickleball shoes over the years but my Sketchers are the best shoes for two reasons. The arch support is total comfort and the Goodyear Gold outsole doesn't seem to wear out which is truly amazing since I play almost daily 🤪

Protect your eyes. Nothing stops a pickleball game faster than an injury. I wear glasses during drills and games and although there is the occasional and unintentional head shot, I never have to worry about an eye injury. Stay safe!!

I have quite a few pickleball paddles but this is my favorite. The grip is perfect for me and the textured paddle face helps me create just the right amount of top spin. Watch out, people!! :):)

If you want socks that never fail, these are a safe pick. I love the lip on the heel that prevents the sock from being eaten by your shoe during active play.

I have Stanleys and Hydrojugs but this inexpensive flip and fill is a fav goto because it has NO straw. I'm not a fan of that extra piece of plastic. I go stainless for a reason and there are lots of color options :):)

Norwex face and body cloths use BacLock, a feature which inhibits the growth of bacteria on the cloth and you. I keep a damp one in a ziplock in my pickleball/gym bag to help when deodorant fails me. Don't use soap. This damp cloth handles it all. Ch...

I love Sketchers but New Balance pickleball shoes are another brand I use on the court. They provide comfort and a wide two-bed for that side to side action. You need more than one pair of shoes if you play this sport regularly.
