The Ultimate Padel Essentials: Your Good Times Starter Kit
Look good, feel good. It’s a confidence thing, right?
We’re always on the lookout for padel gear that hits the sweet spot of good design while actually improving our game. The search for cool padel gear is endless, especially with more and more brands popping up all over the place. So, here we are, launching the search with our first ever Good Times Starter Kit.
Nordicdots Performance Padel Balls
When it comes to padel, the quality of your balls can make or break your game. The Nordicdots Performance padel balls are designed for players who demand consistency and longevity. This brand was made for racquet lovers who value sustainability and clean Scandinavian design.
These balls maintain their bounce and control even during intense rallies, allowing you to focus on your next moves rather than worrying about drop-off.
LudoPadel Everyday Bag
Because no one wants to juggle multiple bags. This kit bag by LudoPadel is perfect for carrying all your gear, and everything else you need to see you through the day.
Side pockets for water bottles and ball tubes, a sturdy base so you can set it down safely, it also cleverly features an interior padded pocket to fit a MacBook — these guys have really thought of everything.
It’s roomy enough for your racquet, shoes, balls, and even some snacks (of course!), while still remaining beautifully minimal making it easy to transition from court to café.
It’s a LOVE from us.
Mizuno Wave Exceed 2 Padel Shoes
The perfect cocktail of cushioning, stability, and grip, these trainers are tailored specifically for the busy feet of padel. Whether you’re smashing at the net or sprinting across the baseline, these lightweight shoes will keep you grounded and agile.
“Utilising MIZUNO ENERZY Foam x Foam WAVE for cushioning and energy return, a comfortable last in a spacious width and the mesh-based upper construction for lightweight softness even when flexing.”
Available in a few different colourways, the khaki being a favourite of ours for sure.
Waterdrop Sports Bottle
Say hello to this super sleek water bottle from Waterdrop. These guys collect 2 plastic bottles from the environment with every bottle sold, so you can keep yourself hydrated while doing your bit for the planet!
The 800ml Ultralight Steel water bottles are made from BPA-free single-walled stainless steel. With a handy little loop for carrying/fastening to your bag and a pull up cap for quick glugging. At 210g, it’s also extra light compared to some other brands.
Because, H20 is our ride or die.
Adidas Metalbone Team Light 3.3 Racket
Lightweight yet powerful, this racket offers a balance of control and power that’s ideal for players at any level. Its ergonomic design and durable construction will take good care of your tricky shots and its diamond shape, high sweet spot, and head heavy balance will give oodles of power behind your smashes.
The surface is textured to the touch and offers spin blade technologies to increase your grip and spin. Nice racquet!
