FAQ
All the details you need about The DESI
What Makes DAPS the best Pickleball Shoes?
Simple: they’re built from the court up. Not repurposed. Not relabeled. With biomechanics lab data, real-player testing, fourth-gen shoemaking, and game-changing gear like the Blumaka NonSlip insoles—DAPS doesn’t just check boxes. We build better from the ground up.
Are DAPS True to Size, or Do I Need to Guess and Pray?
Just for Pickleball? Or Can I Wear ‘Em Everywhere?
Will These Leave Marks Like That One Guy Who Wears Running Shoes?
Are DAPS True to size, or do i need to guess and pray?
Yes. DAPS are dialed-in using SMARTLAST tech by Heeluxe. Expect a true, performance-ready fit, with just a touch of extra room in the forefoot.
Not your first pair of court shoes? Here’s how we fit:
If you’re coming from Nike, Adidas, Skechers, Wilson, or Fila, go a half size down.
Rocking K-Swiss, New Balance, Asics, or Babolat? Stick with your usual size—DAPS should feel right at home.
Are these just for Pickleball Shoes? Or can i wear 'em everywhere?
DAPS were designed and engineered specifically for the fast footwork, sharp angles, and explosive movement of pickleball—but that performance doesn’t stop at the kitchen line. These shoes are just as dialed-in for padel, basketball, and honestly, any court sport—including that weird one with the fuzzy ball and stringed racquets. With clean lines and all-day comfort, these are sneakers that look right running errands or grabbing post-game tacos
Will these leave marks like that one guy who wears running shoes?
Nope. The non-marking rubber outsole grips hard without leaving a trace. That means confidence for you, and no side-eye from your local rec center.
