We see many sometimes exotic padel sites attacking the French market. We will tell you why, it is better to buy from your padel club or from a French site.

Warranty

In padel, it happens much more often than you think that there is a problem with the rackets. After a few hours, the racket is already broken, the rubber no longer responds, the handle is not going… What to do? If it is a French padel site or club, your racket will be under warranty. In general, the after-sales service in France works very well. Brands and salespeople on the ground are often very attentive to this.

When buying abroad, you do not need to call the brand in France, the club, or a French site to explain your problem. In principle, there will be no after-sales service. It will be necessary to buy another one.

Bringing clubs to life

Padel clubs are the lungs of French padel. They promote your sport, they take risks to offer you quality infrastructures. They allow you to test your equipment and they take care of after-sales service when there is a problem.

Beware of bad conduct of some players who come to test equipment in a club, take advice from a commercial to finally buy elsewhere. Yellow card !

Especially for a few euros difference... Remember: These few euros difference: it's essentially peace of mind in the event of a problem with your equipment.

The stores

In France, there are stores dedicated to sports almost everywhere. Decathlon, for example, offers padel rackets. You can test your rackets before buying them and you benefit from the French guarantee in case of problems.

Where to buy your equipment

  • In the padel clubs

Padel clubs often offer a service around the padel racket. Sometimes, they even have a shop! The number 1 advantage is that they are specialists and you can test the equipment on site.

CLUB DIRECTORY

  • Websites

Another solution, some serious websites offer you the possibility of buying padel equipment in France. From time to time, some sites even offer a solution with a racket test system in a club to then order online.
