@ZSistersPickleball - If you’re over 50 and playing pickleball (or thinking about starting), this might be the most important equipment tip you’ll ever hear: don’t wear the wrong shoes! At Z Sisters Pickleball, we get asked all the time what kind of footwear is best for pickleball—so today, we’re breaking down what not to wear and why it matters for your safety, balance, and joint health.
👟 Skip the Vans… skip the flip-flops… skip the running shoes.They’re comfortable for everyday life, but not built for quick stops, starts, and side-to-side movement on the court.
Instead, choose a proper court shoe—either a tennis shoe or a pickleball-specific model. These shoes are designed for multi-directional movement to help prevent ankle sprains, stubbed toes, slips, and unnecessary strain on your knees, back, and feet. Whether you’re a senior pickleball player, a tennis convert, or brand-new to the sport, wearing the right court shoe can keep you healthy, confident, and injury-free.
Z Sisters Pickleball is all about helping you play longer, stronger, and safer. Your body will thank you—especially if you're 50+ and loving this game as much as we do!
