These is my second pair of Acacia pickleball shoes. I got talked into trying a different brand for the last pair I wore. They were okay, but not near as comfortable and good fitting as the Acacia ones. No break in necessary. They fit good and were very comfortable from the first time I put them on. I’ve had a few people notice them and ask about them.
I kinda like this shoe, seems a bit heavy, I have less bounce and slower take off's, I'll hang on to them for a bit, I have a different shoe on the way to try
I like these shoes for Pickleball although they might be a little big. I did order a half size larger. The next time I’ll order my size.
I purchased the Dinkshot II solely because they were visually appealing. I was surprised at how stiff they were and was hesitant about whether they would break in. I’ve never had to break in a pair of pickleball shoes before. Thankfully, after wearing them at home for a few days and then playing in them for a couple of days, they are now comfortable and have garnered the attention of everyone in my pickleball group.
