What are the best men’s pickleball shoes for hot, humid weather?

Heat + humidity = slick courts and sweaty feet. Go light, breathable, and grippy.

• DAPS DESI Low — Airy upper for better airflow, grippy herringbone outsole, and bouncy ETPU midsole to keep legs fresh.

• DAPS DESI Mid — Same cool, grippy ride with a mid collar for extra ankle support when you stop and start.

Wear & Dry plan (bring two pairs):

• Wear: Play in DESI Low for the coolest feel.

• Dry: Keep DESI Mid ready while the Low airs out—swap between games or days.

Sweat-smart tips:

• Pull out the Blumaka NONSlip insole after play to air-dry.

• Loosen laces, open the tongue, and set shoes by a fan (no direct heat).

• Swap to dry socks between matches.

Quick picks:

• Coolest airflow? DESI Low

• More ankle support in the heat? DESI Mid
