About Us

It all started with a simple truth on the pickleball court: existing apparel just wasn't cutting it. Our co-founder, tired of the same old pickleball shirts (no offense to pickles!), yearned for something that truly represented the diverse, vibrant, and, let's be honest, punk spirit of the pickleball community. She envisioned a world where every player—regardless of age, background, or personality—could find a design that spoke to them.

Enter her husband, a seasoned professional animator with a resume that includes the likes of Frozen, Kung Fu Panda, Tarzan, Hercules, How To Train Your Dragon and even The Simpsons. With his 30 years of artistic legacy and both of their passion for pickleball, a lightbulb went off! Together, they decided to create a unique cast of pickleball characters, each embodying the varied and lively personalities you find on the court. And just like that, Pickleball PunkX was born – a brand dedicated to bringing originality and relatability to your pickleball wardrobe.
