Recommended Mens PickleBall shoes
**Rotate at least 2 pairs when playing daily on outdoor gritty surfaces**
There are not many shoe options on the market that can withstand scorching heat and abrasive surfaces for longer than 60-90-120 days of solid play.
High level Singles players can go through shoes in 1 Tournament.
Basketball shoes have great support but usually have soft rubber soles and do not last at all after long periods of play and most likely leave your Achilles Tendon & Calf Muscles Aching.
Tennis Court Shoes are probably your most durable although many brands are made of cheap materials and will not last or perform.

- Outdoor Play: gritty cement courts are hard on shoes, knees & ankles so rotate often - injuries typically happen due to poor posture, technique, and excess baggage around stressing your joints and ligaments.
- Indoor Play: if you play mostly indoor on rubber/wood - go basketball/volleyball styles if you are athletic.
- Wear Patterns: Just take a look at your wear patterns on the bottom of your shoes.
- Long term joint problems leave evidence.
- Toe Drag linked to anchor leg wear one dominant shoes down and basically ruins a pair quickly.

CourtStrike & CourtStrike Pro
Mens CourtStrike Pro
Only a few left!
Designed for Comfortable and Competitive Play.
The Men’s CourtStrike Pro Pickleball Shoe is a performance-driven shoe designed for the competitive player looking to elevate stability, comfort, and responsiveness. It features a more advanced breathable mesh upper that forms to your foot, with 3D printing that holds your foot secure with lateral stability.
The CourtStrike Pro has industry-leading side-to-side quickness due to the responsive top-loaded EVA midsole, which helps with fast reactionary movements on the court. The sleek profile and monochrome colorway have a clean athletic style, giving you confidence in your pickleball look.
Why do you need a pickleball-specific shoe versus traditional running shoes?
Traditional running shoes lack the ideal traction for a pickleball court and don’t have the support needed for the game’s sudden lateral movements or pivots. Selkirk’s CourtStrike Pro shoe was uniquely designed for pickleball – every move, every point. Its technology has the comfort, stability, and traction necessary to prevent slipping and injuries, so you can go one more.
Built to last, the CourtStrike Pro is backed by a 6-month sole warranty — because we are confident you’ll love its performance and durability.
