   Very narrow and tight across the top of the foot. I don’t think a wide size would help the overall tightness across the top of the foot. Needed to return.

   Purchased these shoes approximately 1-2 months ago when I began my Pickleball journey, playing roughly three times a week. I’ve historically been quite hard on my footwear, and unfortunately, I managed to wear a hole in these relatively quickly. However, I must note that the overall feel, size, and other aspects of these shoes were great. Tried adding photos, but couldn’t.

   Comfortable shoe, after a month outsoles worn down. Pretty bummed. Reached out to ASICS, will see what they say

   Unfortunately, these pairs wear out really quickly. The shoe soles were gone in 3 weeks. I love all my Asics shoes, but not these pairs.

   The sole on the shoes have worn out after playing less than 10 hours on indoor pickleball courts. Bad quality and I would personally recommend the players looking for pickleball shoes not to purchase these shoes. For the price point we have paid, we expect the shoes to lost longer. I use other branded tennis shoes and the soles on the shoes does not worn out even after playing 40+ hours on the same surface courts.

   I bought these shoes in June and worn twice a week and the sole has worn through most of the padding in the shoe. This is a poor quality shoe and NOT recommended. If you are looking for a pickleball shoe, select another brand.

   Fit and size were perfect. Wear was reasonable.

   I bought my pair about a year ago. I found them comfortable and durable. I play three times a week and the soles are still in reasonable condition and will probably last another two months

    I have only played with them for a week. I am a big fan of ASICS. ASICS is the only court shoe that fits my foot and after 3-4 hours constant play is still comfortable. My only wish is that it would be a little lighter. At 79, I could use all the help I can get. If you have a lighter weight model please let me know.

    I loved everything about these shoes except for the fact that the soles wore out extremely quickly. Before I knew it, they were completely smooth.

    Shoes feel great. If i was to mention one negative aspect it would be the tread wears fast for a “pickleball shoe”.

    Has a weird lump on the outside ball of foot. Maybe for stability? It doesn’t fit the way other asics do.
