I've looked everywhere to find a better pickleball shoe, but haven't been able to find something that will work better for me (Mens - size 10) than the NB 1006. I'm on my 7th pair during a three-year-plus period. That's good because I'm satisfied that the shoes work well for pickleball, but bad because, like clockwork, the soles wear out and the cushioning on the sole deteriorates forcing me to buy new sneaks every five months. I've pushed the purchasing window at times by applying 'Shoe Goop' to the soles, but this is a very temporary fix and does not replace the actual tread design on the bottom of the shoe. I also add sole inserts once the original cushioning breaks down.Competitive pickleball, particularly when played on outdoor courts, demands a lot of side to side (and sliding) motion, quick starts, and sudden stops. I'm 65, and play pball at least 4x every week. Each time, I play for a little over an hour, and many times for two hours or more. It works out to 6 to 7+ hours a week that I'm playing in these NB shoes. My feet are a bit wide and my ankles are not the strongest. I have a pronation that also affects my ankles. NB 1006 gives me the width, the toe box room and the ankle support I need to play with the confidence that my shoes are not going to contribute to injury. Don't get me wrong, I've turned my ankle in these sneaks, but that generally happens after the shoes have been played in for five months. Seriously, this is a very good court shoe. I can handle slipping in some inserts, but the tread life on these shoes just doesn't hold up to everyday play outside for more than five months. They fix that issue and this would be a very good court shoe.
