More Than a Game: Why Pro Athletes Sarah Jane Lim-Narvasa and Leander Lazaro Trust Skechers for the Pickleball Court
MANILA, PHILIPPINES — Pickleball may be the fastest-growing recreational sport in the country, known for its loud music and communal vibe, but for professionals Sarah Jane Lim-Narvasa and Leander Lazaro, the movements on the court are anything but casual. Today, the two athletes are opening up about the "unsaid requirement" of the sport: specialized footwear.
As the newly appointed captain of the Southeast Asia Surge Team, Sarah Jane (SJ) Lim-Narvasa knows that endurance starts from the ground up. "I need something comfortable and stable. Not too rigid, not too soft," SJ explains. After years in competitive tennis and obstacle sports, she now relies on the Skechers Viper Court Pro 2.0. "The right pair means freedom to move confidently without second-guessing every step."
Leander Lazaro, who transitioned from self-taught YouTube drills to the professional circuit, emphasizes that lateral support is the key to safety. "You need proper court shoes. When you feel stable, you react faster," says Lazaro. For him, the Skechers Viper Court series hits the "sweet spot" of comfort, stability, and style—essential for athletes who head straight from the court to social engagements.
Engineered for the Rally Unlike standard sneakers, Skechers Pickleball shoes are designed to handle the quick, lateral, and reactive movements unique to the game. By preventing foot-sliding and ankle wobbling, the Viper Court Pro 2.0 minimizes the risk of blisters and sprains, allowing players—from beginners to seasoned pros—to focus entirely on the volley.
