Following a knee surgery hiatus from pickleball, I’m glad to be back on the court. Starting with 15-minute sessions and gradually increasing the duration to an hour, I’ve found that the most important aspects of pickleball include a high-quality racquet, sufficient arch support in my sneakers, a fashionable must-have pickleball outfit and and stylish bag that allows you to carry all your pickleball essentials.
If you’re out there dropping shots without proper insoles for your pickleball shoes, you’re simply asking for a fashion faux pas and foot pain! Trust me, the right pickleball insoles will change your game and your life. We’re not about hobbling off the court after an epic match—oh no, we stride off gracefully, ready for cocktails, all thanks to the magical wonders of arch support. Whether you’re sprinting for a drop shot or casually posing courtside, your feet deserve the best.
Although pickleball can be very strenuous on my knees, switching from tennis was the best decision I’ve made in years! I was on a tennis team and played four times a week. I was so ready for a similar sport and so glad I found it.
When you find a sport you’re passionate about pursue it! I take lessons twice a week to gain confidence and achieve success. I’m on my way!
My husband and I find that playing doubles with other players enhances the excitement of the game. I was more than ready for the switch to pickleball, a sport I have grown to love and await the day I can play all the time.
Your pickleball paddle and accessories deserve to travel in style. Sure, you could stuff your paddles, water bottle, and energy bars into some sad, utilitarian tote, but where’s the fun in that? I say elevate your game with a designer bag that screams fabulous. I’m absolutely loving this chic Think Royln sporty spice bag—because why should your pickleball paddle have anything less? Functional pockets for all your essentials, a touch of leather for that luxe feel, and of course, enough space for your post-match gloss. Who says sport and style don’t mix?
I also really like this Ame & Lulu Hamptons pickleball bag from Saks. It’s so simple and yet timeless.
XOXO,
