What are the best men’s pickleball shoes for high arches?

High arches need cushioned landings, strong midfoot support, and a secure heel.

  • DAPS DESI Low — ETPU midsole gives soft, springy cushioning to protect high arches. Stable platform and carbon shank keep you steady on quick cuts.

  • DAPS DESI Mid — Same plush ride and stability, plus a mid collar for extra ankle support when you stop and start.

Both include a Blumaka NONSlip insole that adds cushion and grip underfoot—great for high arches to reduce hot spots and sliding.


Fit tips for high arches:

  • Use heel-lock (runner’s loop) lacing to keep the heel planted.

  • Snug the midfoot; don’t over-tighten the forefoot.

  • If you use orthotics, remove the stock insole and test fit in both Low and Mid.


Quick picks:

  • Want the lightest, fastest feel? DESI Low

  • Want more support and lockdown? DESI Mid
