When it comes to pickleball fashion, there’s a lot to explore. From dresses to skirts, the options are endless.

The varsity trend is still going strong, but I personally lean towards shorts over skirts. This skirt caught my eye with its comfortable waistband and flirty design. Pairing it with my favorite Nike shoes completes the look while keeping me comfortable on the court.
