Pickleball Boom: What Retailers Must Know with Steven Greenstein of PB5Star
Pickleball isn't just a sport anymore—it's a retail movement.
In this episode, Pete Mohr sits down with Steven Greenstein, VP at PB5Star, to discuss how their biomechanics-first approach to footwear is turning heads—and turning inventory.
You’ll hear how PB5Star grew from concept to sellout, what makes their court shoe different from rebranded tennis models, and why their success is tied to deep retailer support and community activation.
Whether you run a comfort store, a running shop, or a sporting goods location, this episode breaks down:
→ Why the pickleball customer is different—and rapidly growing
→ The mechanics of the game that impact footwear design
→ How PB5Star supports retailers with the Five Star Success Plan
→ Creative ways to attract and engage your local pickleball community
→ Why independent retailers are perfectly positioned to own this space
From apparel to paddles to recovery sandals, PB5Star offers more than just shoes—they offer opportunity.
