ACACIA Corrine Carr

The Corrine Carr uses a flexible ProFlex elasto-polymer upper with MicroHC mesh above the toes. That combination should let your foot move naturally while allowing more airflow. A reinforced toe and wraparound drag guard add protection where repeated court movement can wear shoes down. The wider toe box may give your toes more room, while the offset eyelet lets you tighten the upper around your heel.

Underneath, the water-resistant ARK-Technology EVA midsole provides structure and elevation. The ProSole insole uses silicone honeycomb gel for shock absorption. Its non-marking rubber outsole has PROgrip tread and extends around the shoe's edges, which fits pickleball's frequent lateral movement. The outsole is listed for all courts.

The rubber outsole is built for traction, with PROgrip tread wrapping around the shoe's contour for lateral support. Its elevated heel is intended to improve leverage, control, and balance. The heel counter also targets stability during rapid side-to-side movement.

The gel insole and EVA midsole provide the shoe's cushioning and structure. One player said the shoes helped with plantar fasciitis after other shoes did not. Another buyer reported comfort after a short break-in period. Player feedback is not unanimous, though: the available customer rating is mixed, so check the return policy before buying.

One buyer said the shoes run true to size and have a wide toe box. That buyer also reported a short break-in period before they felt comfortable on court. Choose your usual size if you want the reported fit, but allow some adjustment time.
