Ginza & the calligrapher
We had the privilege of playing for an hour at Pickleball One in Ginza with their resident Pro — and a master calligrapher whose brushwork found its way onto a few of our designs. T-shirts available here!
What started on a few Michigan courts turned into a pilgrimage across the world — paddles packed, designs sketched, and a mission to play pickleball where we least expected to find it.
Tokyo Pickleball began with a simple idea: the merch should be as fun as the game. We were tired of generic pickleball tees, so we started drawing — mixing Japanese pop art with the American sport we couldn't stop playing.
Every design comes from something we love. Jay pulls from mixed media, a healthy dose of humor, and his favorite pop-art and cultural references — folding pickleball into the stuff he's already into. The result is apparel worth wearing on the court and off.




A few days on the courts of Tokyo — and the people who made them unforgettable.

The next day, we played pickleball right in the shadow of Tokyo Tower — rooftop courts, open sky, and one unforgettable backdrop.
We can't wait to go back — and play again.

We made friends along the way — and even left a “Lucky Cat Plays Pickleball” sticker at Gotokuji Temple, the birthplace of the maneki-neko, as a small sign of gratitude.
Every shirt in the shop traces back to a sketch, a court, or a moment on this trip. Find yours.
