What to Look for in a Squash Shoe

A great squash shoe focuses on three things: the sole, the support, and the weight.

The Sole

This is the most critical feature. The best squash shoes have a gum rubber sole, which is soft and provides excellent traction on a wooden squash court. It’s also "non-marking," which means it won’t leave scuffs on the floor. A patterned tread will help you grip better during quick changes in direction.

Support & Stability

Squash involves constant, rapid lateral movement. Your shoes need to be built for this. Look for a sturdy structure around the ankle and through the midfoot. This robust construction prevents your foot from rolling during a lunge, providing crucial lateral support and reducing the risk of sprains. Good shock absorption in the heel and forefoot is also key to cushion landings.

Weight and Breathability

A lighter shoe allows for faster footwork, but you don't want to sacrifice too much support. Most modern indoor court shoes find a great balance. Look for models with mesh panels on the upper, which allow for better airflow to keep your feet cool and comfortable during long matches.

For a great all-around fit, ensure there's about a half-inch (a thumb's width) of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are running shoes okay for squash?

No, running shoes are not recommended for squash. They are designed for forward motion and have thick, soft heels that can make you unstable and prone to ankle rolls during the rapid side-to-side movements of squash. They also typically lack the specific lateral support needed for court sports.

What makes a shoe a "squash shoe"?

A true squash shoe, or indoor court shoe, has two key features: a non-marking gum rubber sole for superior grip on hardwood courts, and strong medial and lateral support to stabilize the foot during quick directional changes and lunges. This ensures both performance and safety.

What is your return policy on shoes?

We accept returns on squash shoes within 30 days, provided they are unworn, in new condition, and in their original, undamaged box. We recommend trying them on at home on a clean surface before playing in them.
