  • Pretty, durable and keep my feet happy!
Size: 8 Color: Egret/Patina Green
They fit great and really hold my feet well. I had problems with plantar fasciitis pain and this allows me to play pickleball for 2-3 hours without feet pain- I now stop playing due to being tired instead of having foot pain. And they are very pretty. I’ve worn them a lot the past few months and very durable without any wear! ... show more

  • 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. ... show more

  • Finally...a comfortable pickleball shoe
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. ... show more

  • Comfort, style and support. They have it all - and a choice of colors!
Size: 8 Color: Bright White/Open Air/Estate Blue
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! ... show more

  • Great pickleball shoes
Update!! I have played in these shoes for over 1 month now, playing almost daily 2-4 hours, and have noticed a few cons, unfortunately. 1- the biggest issue is the fit around the outside toe area. Not enough stiffness perhaps, but my feet get incredibly sore and cramping when i wear these shoes and play for a long period of time. If i wear other shoes, i don't get the same foot pain. Tried inserts and did not help the cramping in these shoes. 2- these show sweat stains almost immediately. The top of the shoe is fabric and it looks gross to me to see the sweat stains. If the foot pain wasn't so bad I'd wear these until they needed to be replaced. Unfortunately I cannot play in them with how my feet hurt so I will go back to my OG kswiss coutt express shoes. Original review after only wearing a few times: Great pickleball shoe! I Love K Swiss for court sports in general and have gone through a few pairs of K Swiss tennis shoes for pickleball. This one in my favorite. This shoe is so lightweight and breathable. Very comfortable to play in. No break-in time required. I play every day and played in a tournament the second time I wore these shoes- with no blisters or discomfort at all! They are stable/supportive,, but allow the right amount of sliding on the court! ... show more

  • Great Pickleball Shoe
Size: 7 Wide Color: Highrise/White
I love these pickleball shoes. They are so comfortable with no break in time. I for the last 9 years have been going with one brand but so glad I decided to try the K-Swiss Express light. The sizing and width are perfect. You won’t be disappointed!

  • great pickleball shoes
Size: 8 Color: Asphalt/Steel Gray/Peach
This is the second pair of KSwiss Express Light shoes I have purchased. I usually wear an 8 and I have a tiny bit of a wider forefoot and a high arch... and right out of the box these were a perfect fit in the regular width, a rare thing for me. I play about about 6 hours of PB per week, the sole wore down a decent amount after 8-10 months of play, I was ready to replace them, even tho worn they are not slippery on a dry court. I did purchase the KSwiss Pickleball Supreme next, and I like the way they feel around the ankle, the toe box seems less constrained than the Express Light, the laces start a bit higher up, so hard to tighten the area just behind the ball of the foot. I had to go up a half size to 8.5, as my toe was hitting the end of the shoe. The Supreme is also comfortable out of the box, compared to Asics, Sketchers and Prince, they were not comfortable at all. The KSwiss Supreme is comfortable yet I think I prefer the Express light overall. ... show more

  • Very comfortable, lightweight, wide toe box
Size: 7.5 Wide Color: Highrise/White
I can feel the lightness of these "Express Light" PB shoes. They're comfortable, true to size, stable and allow you to move quickly. The toe box is wide. I replaced the included insole with one that's firmer with a molded heel cup to keep my foot from sliding, and this combination absorbs more shock. I've seen soles on some K-Swiss PB shoes wear out quickly, so I'll try to use these only on the PB court and not too much to and from my car. They are replacing Tyrol Women's Striker Pro V Pickleball Shoes which I liked, but were far heavier and the inner lining was deteriorating (though the Vibram soles were amazingly still going strong after a year of use). ... show more
