If you’re anything like me, you have never heard of pickleball. However, recently it’s been brought to my attention that it’s an incredibly popular sport, and I suddenly can’t escape pickleball content. I’ve suddenly found myself obsessed with the “popular” summertime tennis/ping-pong hybrid sport – or at least the sporty-core trends that come with it. While I probably won’t be joining my local pickleball league anytime soon, I’ve compiled a list of some of the perfect pickleball necessities and accessories. Whether you’re a fan of the sport or want to look cute on the side of the court, there’s something on this list for you.

These are the perfect sneaker to wear on the pickleball court and the cutest summer sneaker to complete any sporty-core look. The 2740 Platform Slip-On comes in 7 colorways, and it’s hard to resist buying them all. You don’t have to limit yourself to just wearing these while playing a sport; I promise you’ll be reaching for these when you just want a neutral, comfy, trendy shoe to go anywhere.
