Sweatshirts & Hoodies

Padel hoodies

Plenty of players keep a hoodie in the bag all the time. It goes on before stepping onto court, during the warm-up, between matches or once a training session is over. Outside the club too, especially when the weather turns cold.

Here are padel hoodies for men and women, plus smaller sizes for kids. Most are zip-up or hooded, with the odd crew neck for anyone who'd rather keep it plain. The brands are mostly ones you've already seen at your own club.

When do you wear a padel hoodie?

Types of padel hoodies

The old plain grey hoodie at the bottom of the kit bag is no longer the only option. Thin ones suit the in-between weeks of spring and autumn. For a winter evening on an outdoor court, you want something thicker. A few are cut to be worn straight to the car after the match, and nobody looks twice.

• Hooded: probably the one you spot most, both at the club and on the walk home afterwards.
• Zip-up: easy to put on and take off during the warm-up.
• Crew neck: the classic cut, easy to wear day to day.
• Technical: made from light sports fabric that stays out of the way when you're moving around the court.

How do you choose a padel hoodie?

• Fabric: a thinner knit does the job on summer evenings, but come October you'll want something with more weight. Also worth thinking about if the hoodie only comes out now and then.
• Fit: some players like a close cut, others want room to move. Entirely down to taste.
• Hood or zip: little things you only notice after a few weeks of wearing it to training.
• Pockets: somewhere for keys or a phone, and a place to tuck your hands when it's cold.
• Design: some are very plain, others borrow heavily from what the pros wear on tour.

Padel hoodie brands

The hoodies here come from Bullpadel, Adidas, Nox, Siux, Joma, Head, Babolat and a handful of other names that turn up at most clubs.

A few are clearly made for training and match days. Others look more like the hoodie you'd put on for a trip to the shops. Both are here.

At Time2Padel the padel hoodies cover men and women, and kids too. Some get pulled on for the warm-up and come off after the first game. Others stay on through a long training session on a cold Tuesday night, or just get worn on a normal day. Fabric and cut vary a fair bit from one to the next. Plenty of them never see a court at all.
