Rachel wore the Serena Skort and Rally Tank from ELN Apparel. Bubble skirts have been especially popular in the pickleball space, and this gingham version was no exception. She also wore the Soft Knit Jersey Cami Dress, a polka-dot style that brought a unique look to the pickleball scene!

Ella Oh, a rising PPA junior star, sported SParms sleeves with the Align Waist-Length Racerback Tank from Lululemon in dusty lilac, paired with a white skirt. It was great to see the juniors out there playing pickleball and looking stylish while doing it. Congratulations to Ella on a great week.

Parris put together the perfect fall outfit in this burgundy set from Alo Yoga. She wore the Airlift Advantage Racerback Bra paired with the Match Point Tennis Skirt in matching burgundy. The skirt is currently sold out on Alo, but we were able to find one available on Poshmark. Kudos to Federico Staksrud for matching her perfectly.

Ranking the Best Men’s Pickleball Shoes of 2025
Pickleball addicts (like myself) will wear down at least 3-5 pairs of shoes per year. So finding the right pair is crucial for your wallet and your game. To help my fellow players, I’ve ranked the best men’s pickleball shoes of 2025.

Federico sported his classic all JOOLA look, wearing the men’s woven shorts 7” in bright orange paired with the men’s club polo in off white. Not only did Fed bring great style to the court this week, he also reclaimed his number one spot in men’s singles!

Jennifer Gallwas — Senior PPA Player

Jennifer wore the Women’s Court Tank from JOOLA, paired perfectly with a skirt from The Bubble Lifestyle for a great matching and cohesive look. The senior women’s fashion queen continues to deliver.

Honorary Mention: The Champion Cowboy Hat

The cowboy hats given to the champions was a great Texas touch!

Ranking the Best Women’s Pickleball Shoes of 2025
Finding the best pickleball shoes for women in 2025 means looking at comfort, stability, traction, and durability. I tested five top-performing models from leading brands like Nike, New Balance, ASICS, Mizuno, and Selkirk to see which ones actually deliver on the pickleball court.
