The small equipment that changes your playing comfort.
What padel demands from small equipment
Born in 1969 in Acapulco, where Enrique Corcuera set up a court surrounded by walls at his property, padel is played between glass and wire fences where the ball bounces. This wall game wears out the equipment in a particular way: the racquet scrapes the ground and hits the glass in defence, the hand sweats during long rallies, and the arm repeats smashes and bandejas. Each accessory addresses one of these constraints: the overgrip for the grip, the wristband and headband against sweat, the frame protector, the compression sleeve for the forearm, and the thermal bag for racquets sensitive to heat.
By type of accessory
Accessories are organised by type:
Padel is also available in racquets, shoes, balls, textiles, brands, on the padel page.
Thermal bag, backpack or wheeled bag: transporting your racquets
Padel racquets, with a foam core, are sensitive to temperature changes: left in a trunk under the sun or in extreme cold, the foam loses its responsiveness. The racquet bag, like the Head CCT or M Bkny, adidas Control and Tour or the Cuera Oncourt Medium, includes a thermal compartment and a separate ventilated pocket for shoes. The backpack Nox Pro or the Black Crown Magic, more compact, carries one or two racquets in a dedicated slot and can be taken by bike or on public transport. The wheeled bag adidas Stage Tour, the most spacious, holds several racquets and a change of clothes for a tournament weekend.
Overgrip, wristbands and protection: taking care of the grip and frame
The overgrip wraps around the original grip and is changed as soon as it becomes smooth: the Znake Grips Viper Sticky, sticky, ensures a firm grip for dry hands, while the adidas, more absorbent, is suited for sweaty hands. When the base itself wears out, the Dunlop grip replaces it. The wristbands Varlion Pro and Classic and the headband Varlion stop sweat before it reaches the hand or eyes. The frame protector Starvie, a clear adhesive strip attached to the top of the racquet, absorbs friction against sandy grass and glass. The compression sleeve Cuera supports the forearm, and the microfibre towel Padel Mon Amour dries the hands between games.

Frequently asked questions
When should you change the overgrip on your padel racquet?
As soon as it becomes smooth, shiny or starts to twist in your hand. A regular player changes it every two to four weeks depending on their perspiration. A new overgrip helps avoid gripping the handle too tightly, which can tire the forearm and elbow.
How to wrap an overgrip without it slipping?
Start from the bottom of the handle, heel side, remove the film and wrap it while pulling slightly, each round overlapping the previous by a few millimetres. Cut the excess at an angle at the top of the handle and secure it with the adhesive provided.
What padel accessory to give to a player?
A set of overgrips, wristbands or a frame protector is appreciated by players of all levels, with no issue of size or taste. For a regular player, a thermal bag for their racquets is a lasting gift that protects their equipment.
Why wear a compression sleeve for padel?
The sleeve keeps the forearm muscles warm and limits vibrations during repeated strokes. It is valued by players prone to elbow pain but does not replace medical advice in the case of persistent pain.
Can you layer two overgrips on a handle?
Yes, it’s the simplest way to thicken a handle that is too thin for your hand. Two overlapping overgrips provide a more comfortable grip; beyond that, the handle becomes too thick and interferes with wrist movements like the vibora.
