As a foot doctor I look at tennis and pickleball shoes and tennis shoe technology a bit differently as I focus more on what foot types benefit from these shoes as well as the basketball shoe's functional attributes on the tennis and basketball court

I am a avid pickleball player for 1 year now and play 6x a week. Since October 2023 I have been using Lining low cut basketball shoes and they are super awesome for pickleball. I started off with lining Fusion 8 and immediately fell in love with them. Since then I literally have 14 pairs of Lining low cut basketball shoes that I swap out everyday 😂. I really do 😂. From all city 11 to Liren 3, superlight 2022, Shudder, Liren 3 V2. I recommend any Lining shoes with "TUFF OS" outsoles because they last longer. I love all the pairs I got from them and had zero break-in period. They fit true to size . If I was to rank them: These are all the low cut models 1. Shudder 1(tie). Liren 3 V2 2. Superlight 2022 I chose those 3 because the Toe box is a tad wider and they stop the callus on pinkie toes that the other shoes caused. I will get a pair of Fission 9 soon and I'm looking forward to it. I have not got them yet because the colors are boring😂😂. Liren 4 V2 look 🤤🤤😍😍. Lining Gamma 1 are 🔥🔥 but waaayyy over price 😂

[@nathanmilsaps9843]

Thanks for the list. I still wish you would review the Montis Drop 1.0, Winners Edge P-38 Lightning, Tyrol Drive V, and other pickleball specific shoes. I will have to check out the new Head shoe.

[@vanadyan1674]

I am curious if you have play tested the Montis Drop 1.0 Pickleball shoes? They are definitely the most comfortable and durable pickleball sneakers I have used so far by a pretty wide margin.

[@Steve-xt2ze]

Done it again Zach. Thank you. I been picking up pickleball. I've been wondering about tennis vs pickleball shoes. Again I use your video for researching shoes. My favorite part of all your videos is the break down and dissection analysis of shoes. It gives so much information. Even your recommendation for play style.

[@foodietraveler]

I got two pairs of WoW 12’s. My only complaint is they flare out a little bit compared to other shoes.

[@rogdodge5275]

I used to be a competitive nationally ranked Squash player in my youth and from my layman perspective, the motions in pickleball are quite similar except for the exaggerated lunges in Squash. Consequently, I am surprised that none of the leading Squash shoes are mentioned ?

[@tkielion]

I play in my old WOW 808 3s and they are perfect for indoor and outdoor. The rubber has held up great. Fantastic performance for the $

[@totallygrateful]

Got a pair of Acacia Dinkshot pickleball shoes, they're so good! Nice wide toe box, finally!

[@rickfarber6242]

Would love to see a review of the NB 996v6 pickleball shoe.

[@footdoctorzachdubbs]

It’s the 996v5 with a different name

[@Wolvesofsheep]

I’m a barricade man. I love the love profile of it. So much court feel. But, I suppose, it might be worth it to try out something a little more forgiving. I’ve been noticing knee pain after matches lately

[@kvflips]

Loved the barricades but the ball of foot pain and knee pain made me switch to the vapor 11s

[@gabrielherrero5829]

Please do reviews for padel shoes! Can be tennis shoes that you would recommend for padel or shoes that are made for padel

[@Famouss]

Thanks to your recommendation, Lacoste remains my number 1 tennis shoe

[@OnRappel]

Any court shoes with wide toe box?

[@bfbone1999]

Hope you can also review Montis Drop 1.0

[@footdoctorzachdubbs]

Ive used them - theyre ok

[@bfbone1999]

@@footdoctorzachdubbs How would you rate it?

[@fratersol]

I use Head 3.5 sprints

[@PhoenixRugerRedBird]

What's the difference between the Babolat Propulse Fury 3 and Jet Mach 3?

[@steveramey8654]

I use my NB 996v5 for indoors and outdoors. I play more outdoor than indoor.

[@rocheedeleon5892]

Hello @Foot doctor Zach, glad you validated that 361 quick 5.0 would be good for piclleball... as soon as I saw the 4.0 heel support... and nice improvements to 5.0 My question would be in general, as a child I was told that every shoe I should buy should have atleast a half inch extra for the toes... do you still have to look for that when buying for a rubber shoe? Cheers!

@@footdoctorzachdubbs thank you! All the best!

[@FreshCuppaJo]

Great Information! Which of these shoes will last more than 3 months though? I've tried almost all the mentioned in this video and I keep going back to the Jet Mach 3 but they just don't last.

[@footdoctorzachdubbs]

Of all of them the Yonex I’ve found to be the most durable

[@user9b2]

@@footdoctorzachdubbsI just bought the Yonex E5 based on your review, for mainly indoor court pickleball. Its brand new so the traction is perfect (the traction will release when the weight is off) not like the ascic gel game that feel like glue instead of rubber. Almost trip over them because they were so sticky and would not release fast enough.

[@gtbinh]

Curious, what part of the jet mach 3 that is not lasting 3 months for you?

[@FreshCuppaJo]

@@gtbinh GM. The Jet mach 3s wear out on left toe area with the right toe slightly behind. I tend to slide my toes a lot at the kitchen when dinking.

[@btreese7]

My go to shoe is the ASICS Gel Resolution 9. What are your thoughts on that one?

[@footdoctorzachdubbs]

I think its been in a top 5 of mine in the past

[@kimleith1378]

Would like more "lacing" comparisons.

[@footdoctorzachdubbs]

Of lace techniques? I have a free digital download of it actually

[@shawnwsl]

hahaha i wear basketball shoes to play love those wades etc

[@gibs4962]

My 10-month-old pair of AG-LT 23 light just now cracked on the bottom. Does the Ultra compare? I did find the sock like insert to be favorable of the light model.

[@footdoctorzachdubbs]

Its just a much less stout shoe in general

[@matrixmulisha]

I can’t find the let mach 3s in that colorway 🤬🤬🤬

[@riivoelmat8011]

How will the both Way of Wade’s work on tennis clay court?

[@footdoctorzachdubbs]

Not bad but there are much better out there

[@Foxx_Choco]

Any thoughts on the Skechers Viper Court Pro?

[@footdoctorzachdubbs]

I have a review on it over on the main channel

[@mikev7044]

My local pickleball shop owner recommended the Diadora Torneo 2. Thoughts?

[@footdoctorzachdubbs]

Its been in a few of my top 5 lists for pickle - they're great its just you cant list every shoe in these types of videos

[@mikev7044]

@@footdoctorzachdubbsthanks for the reply! I’ve been wearing them for 3 months but have developed some painful plantar fasciitis that I just can’t shake (constant pickle doesn’t help😂). Was considering the Jet Mach 3 based on your review, but not sure it’ll help until the fasciitis heals. Currently trying the CURREX pickleball insert to see if that’ll help more than my go-to Superfeet green.

[@osint6372]

Hi Zack I prefer a show that is lower to the ground and dont really like high thick shoes......I play mostly pickleball singles and compete in tournaments so speed is important but also FEEL and softness as well since I tore a peroneous longus tendon and have a bit of achilles tendonitis.....😂😂..All good though. The Adidas Solecourt boost was the best shoe for me. So I am looking for something similar. I tried asics and other shoes and nothing comes close. Would you be so kind to provide your thoughts on the GP Challenge 1 Vs the PRO. Thanks in advance.

[@user-jx1vp5ei4u]

I have been trying to find the New Balance two way V4 in a wide, but they are all sold out. What is a good pickleball shoe with a wide Toe box? I have had surgery on both of my feet and I desperately need a wide pickleball shoe. Thank You

Zach, you said Yonex instead of Lacoste in the video when you first introduced the Lacoste pair.

🤷‍♂️ I mean you wrote Zack when my name is Zach so neither of us are batting 1000

@@footdoctorzachdubbs so true...I did not mean it in a bad way...I love your channels...my bad on incorrectly spelling your name. Corrected your name. hahaha

[@ilzephyrli]

Woooo

[@jayinlin]

Most player playing pickle ball see their big toe getting bruised. Haven't seen any good shoe that addressed the issue. Need more space on the toes .

[@footdoctorzachdubbs]

Actually more room can lead to axial sliding which is what causes tennis/ runners toe so you want to be more locked in up there- I add add adhesive felt under the tongue or vamp to stop sliding

[@gtbinh]

@@footdoctorzachdubbs Do you have a recommendation for the adhesive felt, Dr. Zach? A google search brough up so many different kinds of felt.

[@carlrodrigues6919]

Would like some prices
