Lean athletic build, Size 14. Owned for 4 months. I've worn these 2-3x/wk totaling ~6hrs/wk playing outdoor pickleball. Dry surfaces only. Cons: 1) Upper material developed hole on right shoe at toe flexion point. 2) Both outsoles are worn 1/2" inward around all edges (can see the midsoles peaking through). 3) Soles of feet get very hot when playing singles. 4) Shoes required break-in period of about 3 playing sessions; they were stiff and I felt pressure on top of feet out of box. 5) I developed blisters on heels during long playing sessions, which I attribute to a poor lace & tongue design. Pros: 1) Feet feel incredibly planted on playing surface. 2) Feet feel incredibly secure inside sneakers.
