Why Shorts Might Be Your New Favorite Pickleball Apparel Item

As you head to Open Play or take your friends to your favorite court, you may notice a change—not only in the style of play but in what women wear. While yoga pants and tennis skirts have been an easy go-to, pickleball shorts are proving that they are functional and fashionable. About half of the pro women pickleball players don shorts.

Shorts are perfect for women who want high-performance athleticwear, style, and comfort. Paired with a coordinated top offer, pickleball shorts offer the winning combination. Here's why shorts might be your new favorite pickleball apparel.

Unmatched Comfort and Mobility

Pickleball is a game of quick movements, low squats, and fast hands, so mobility is key. Exploding to the No Volley Zone after returning a serve, squatting low to dink, and reaching up for an overhead smash demand confidence and focus. Shorts have you covered whether you're reaching, pivoting, or dinking.

When shopping for shorts, look for 4-way stretch fabric. You don't want to feel restricted, so you want a fabric that moves with your body. This is one of the reasons women gravitate towards wearing yoga pants. But for women who want to boast their love for pickleball, shorts provide both compression and flexibility, letting you focus on the ball, not your derriere.

Stay Cool

When the day heats up, your clothing keeps you cool. New high-tech fabrics have advanced moisture-wicking fabrics that pull sweat away from your skin, helping you stay dry and comfortable. Check out Saltie Rose's Black and White Collection crafted with TurboDry, a premier moisture-wicking fabric that keeps you focused on the game, not the sweaty discomfort.


Convenience and Confidence

Looking for a place to put your phone? Saltie Rose offers the convenience of side pockets without creating bulk or sacrificing performance. Snug-fitting side pockets on the right and left allow you to forget that your phone is there, keeping your focus on the game.

Note: At Saltie Rose, we want you to remain injury-free, so pockets are not designed for pickleballs. If you fall, pickleballs do not compress like tennis balls and could cause additional injury.

Our Most Frequently Asked Question:

Q: What length of pickleball shorts should I buy?

A: Our commitment to mix-and-match separates and shorts allow you to customize your look, style, and comfort. The length options are also perfect for partner and team outfits. Shorts can be customized based on height and comfortable exposure: high-thigh, mid-thigh, or lower-thigh hem.

  • Pickleball Shorts (5") High-thigh Shorts are great for women who are under 5'4 or want to expose as much leg as possible with a 5" inseam.

  • Pickleball Shorts (7" TubroDry Fabric) the most options. For women under 5'4, the mid-thigh provides coverage without compromising your silhouette. The 7" inseam is just the right amount of sporty coverage for taller women.

  • Pickleball Shorts (9") are perfect for women 5'5" and above who want to create a long, athletic silhouette with 9" inseam.
