Excellent pickleball shoes
These are hyper comfortable, perform great, and last a long time l. I had been searching for the replacement to my Babolat Jet Mach 3s and these fit the bill. Just perfect!!!

FuelCell 996v6
was listed as a Wide shoe, and I could not get my foot to fit into it. Don't be like Nike and make only narrow shoes, and advertise them as Wide.

New Balance US response
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that the shoe did not fit as expected despite being listed as Wide, and that the narrow feel made it unusable for you. Please reach out to our Customer Care team so they can assist with fit guidance, returns, or help identify a wider option that may work better for you.

Great shoes but soles wear fast
Love these shoes. I’ve been wearing this model for years and I think they’re the best for pickleball. Very good stability and durability. My only concern is how quickly the soles wear. I have to replace every four months which feels way too frequent.

Great choice for pickleball
Sturdy pickleball shoe for outdoor or indoor. So sturdy and well made that it did feel like i needed to break them in.

My new favorite court shoe!
I wore KSwiss Hypercourt Express for years because of the wide toe box. This 996V6 wide model is a noticeably better shoe for me. The outsole is lasting much longer than the KSwiss. The sole is also a little stiffer but not in an uncomfortable way. I can play longer without as much fatigue to my foot. It also feels more locked in around the ankle.

Comfortable shoe; runs narrow
The shoe feels very comfortable and solid with good gripping ability. As a long time New Balance 4E customer, this 4E width works OK for me but is definitely a bit narrower than the many other New Balance 4Es I've purchased.
