Pickleball Gift Guide

The gift they’ll say “thank you” for every time they hit the court.

Whether they’re a rising star, a weekend league staple, or someone who just discovered the obsession, we built this guide for players who take their gear seriously (or should start). Performance matters, and so does staying healthy enough to play the next game.

That’s why, in just one year on the court, SQAIRZ has redefined what pickleball shoes can do.

Named Best Pickleball Shoe by Pickleheads, the largest pickleball community and review platform in the United States
Balance testing showed players improved stability by 15.15% on average, and up to 33% better than ASICS
Trusted by top pros like Zane Navratil and Ava Ignatowich, who helped test and refine the XRZ™ Pickleball Shoe
Official Footwear Partner of the Chicago Slice, one of Major League Pickleball’s most competitive teams
Partnered with Centerline Athletics, the official apparel provider of USA Pickleball, to deliver a unified system of footwear and apparel built for performance

That commitment to balance and performance runs through everything we make. The gifts ahead take those same principles and turn them into the gear every pickleball player needs on the court.

XRZ™ Pickleball Shoe

The smartest gift you can give a pickleball player.

XRZ™ was made specifically for pickleball movement. Every material, angle, and design choice was guided by biomechanics.

Here’s what sets it apart:

Clinically proven to improve balance by 18.6% on average, using hospital-grade motion capture (compared to top brands like ASICS, HOKA, and HEAD)
Lower profile to the ground for better control and reduced ankle roll risk
Geometric midsole + outrigger to lock in alignment through lateral movement
Patented roomier toe box that increases ground contact and balance
GripSync™ footbed that cushions without disconnecting you from the court
Endorsed by podiatrists and biomechanics experts for players focused on injury prevention and long-term health

Who Should Be Wearing XRZ™?

The league captain who just started PT.
The rec player who plays four days a week and wants to keep doing that for years.
The rising star who’s ready to invest in real performance.
The parent, the spouse, the teammate.
Anyone who loves the game and wants to keep playing it.
