Lateral Control Pro Pickleball Shoe

Fit comparison: 1.0 Standard Fit runs ½ size large; 2.0 Wide Fit runs true to size.] Trail to Court DNA — Why It Matters We didn't start with a tennis shoe and slap a "pickleball" label on it. The Lateral Control Pro is built from our mountain biking heritage, where shoes must survive mud, rocks, and technical terrain. The TOE-TALON Wrap (borrowed from MTB rock-guard tech), reinforced ankle armor, and NRG-Foam midsole all come from the trail. You get court-specific performance with trail-tested durability — one shoe that outlasts three pairs of traditional court shoes.

The 2.0 shoe: same idea, much better fit The current 2.0 model is an evolution of the original design, built in response to repeated requests and real‑world use from riders like you. Two of the biggest changes: We’re now punching lace holes through the upper in key areas for added reliability and strength. Each pair is manually widened in the toe box before shipping, which has significantly improved the overall fit for players wanting a closer‑to‑barefoot feel. All of this is custom work done by hand here at our Texas shop/warehouse. Sizing Note – 2.0 Standard Fit vs Wide Fit By popular request, the 2.0 wide fit is now our go-to option for wider feet. Each pair is mechanically heat‑widened in our Texas shop before it leaves the warehouse—using the same kind of process you see in the ski and snowboard world. We’re the first MTB shoe brand to bring this heat-stretch method to flat pedal shoes. 1.0 Standard Fit: tends to run about ½ size large. If you normally wear a 10.5, or are between a 10.5 and 11, we suggest ordering a size 10. 2.0 Wide Fit: runs true to size for most riders with wider or “barefoot-style” feet. If you’re on the fence between the two, go 2.0 wide fit and your usual size—that’s what we designed it for.
