About SimplePadel · Since 2022

Created by players, for players.

SimplePadel is the teammate everyone should have. We publish independent, honest reviews of padel rackets, shoes and accessories, plus the guides that help you actually play better. We know how it feels to be lost in the sea of choices, so we test the gear ourselves and give it to you straight.

Our philosophy

The three pillars we play by

The global game

Padel is for everybody, wherever you live. Our team plays all over the world, and our goal is to help you improve whether your country has 5 courts or 5,000.

Fun, for everyone

Training makes you better, but it should be fun. If you don’t enjoy your time on court, you won’t keep showing up, and you won’t improve.

Sustainability

Good gear should also be responsible gear. We don’t get behind products that take a needless toll on the planet.

More than padel

Padel brings us together. The people make it matter.

It’s the sport that connects us, but it’s never all that defines us. The players are what count, and we’re here to make your time on court better, wherever in the world you play.
