FAQs About Our Pickleball Shoes
We get it — when you’re investing in performance footwear, you want the details. Below you’ll find answers to the most common questions about DAPS pickleball shoes — from sizing and fit to materials, returns, and shipping.
Each pair is engineered for explosive movement, tested for all-day comfort, and designed to outperform repurposed tennis shoes. Whether you’re curious about how our ETPU midsoles work, what makes the Blumaka® insoles different, or how to clean your DAPS after a hard game, this section covers it all.
What makes DAPS shoes different from other pickleball shoes?
Unlike repurposed tennis or training shoes, every DAPS model is engineered specifically for pickleball. Our shoes feature a responsive ETPU midsole for energy return, a carbon fiber shank for stability, and a herringbone outsole for traction on every court surface.
Are DAPS shoes true to size?
Yes — DAPS shoes are designed for a performance fit that runs true to size. If you’re between sizes or prefer a roomier toe box, we recommend going up half a size. Our goal is a secure, stable fit that keeps you grounded without restricting movement.
What’s the difference between DESI Mid and DESI Low?
The DESI Mid offers additional ankle support and stability for quick directional changes, while the DESI Low provides a lighter, lower-profile feel for players who value agility and speed. Both feature identical cushioning and outsole technology.
What are Blumaka® insoles, and why do they matter?
Every pair of DAPS shoes includes Blumaka® NonSlip Inso this doneles — made from 85% recycled performance foam. They deliver superior comfort, impact absorption, and sweat-resistant traction to keep your feet secure during every pivot and rally.
