Bought as a gift for my husband who plays in a senior league. He says it's the most comfortable pickleball shirt he owns. The vintage badge design is really sharp looking.
Solid shirt with a great retro design. My only minor complaint is I wish there were more color options for the shirt itself. The print quality makes up for it though.
The badge style is so different from other pickleball shirts I've seen. Looks like a classic sports crest. Got compliments from the whole group at my club. Navy color looks especially good.
As an older pickleball player this design really speaks to me. The 'Since 1965' detail is a nice touch since that's when pickleball was invented. Great conversation starter at the courts.
Really nice design and good quality fabric. Runs slightly small so I'd size up if you're between sizes. The print itself is really well done with great detail.
