The problem

Tired of rackets covered in loud graphics and slogans?

How it helps your game

The Noir keeps things simple: a plain black carbon fibre face on a diamond head. Choose 12K carbon for a slightly softer response, or 18K for a stiffer, more direct one. Both use T700 fibre and a light EVA core, hardness 15-17.

The racket weighs about 360 g, is 38 mm thick and 455 mm long, with a balance of about 260 mm. It comes with a black grip and a wrist strap, sold exactly as photographed.

Perfect for…

You play regularly and want a carbon racket.

You prefer a discreet, all-black look.

You like choosing how stiff your racket feels.

12K or 18K: pick your feel

12K or 18K: pick your feel

The 12K version has a slightly softer response, a good step up for improving players. The 18K version is stiffer, for players who want a sharper, more direct hit.

Everything else is identical: shape, core, weight and finish.

Diamond shape, balanced weight

02

Diamond shape, balanced weight

The diamond head brings the weight towards the top, adding pace to smashes and volleys. With a balance of about 260 mm and a weight of about 360 g, the racket stays manageable in defence.

The light EVA core, 38 mm thick, keeps the feel firm and controlled.

All black, no noise

All black, no noise

The face is plain black carbon with only small markings: no large graphics or slogans. It suits any kit and looks just as clean after many sessions.

A black grip and a wrist strap are fitted to the handle.

Racket guide

Choose the right padel racket

Four things decide how a padel racket feels: the material of the face, the shape of the head, the density of the foam core and the surface finish. Here is what each one changes on court.

This racket

  • 18K carbon
  • Diamond
  • Medium EVA core
  • Glossy finish
  • 360 g ± 10 g

Surface material

The face is a thin layer of fibreglass or carbon laid over the foam core. The "K" is the number of carbon filaments per thread, in thousands: the higher it is, the wider the weave and, in general, the stiffer and more direct the face.

  • Close-up of a Fibreglass racket face

    Fibreglass

    Flexible and forgiving. The ball leaves the face easily with little effort, which suits beginners and relaxed games.

  • Close-up of a 3K carbon racket face

    3K carbon

    The finest carbon weave. Light and responsive, with a good balance between feel and stiffness.

  • Close-up of a 12K carbon racket face

    12K carbon

    A wider weave and a firmer face. More direct response, a little less give on soft shots.

  • This racketClose-up of a 18K carbon racket face

    18K carbon

    Stiffer still. A firm, precise feel for players who already generate their own pace.

  • Close-up of a 24K carbon racket face

    24K carbon

    The widest weave and the stiffest face of the range. Very precise, and the least forgiving when you miss the centre.

Racket shape

The shape decides where the sweet spot sits and how the weight is balanced. The lower the sweet spot, the easier the racket is to control; the higher it is, the more power you get on smashes.

  • Plain black padel racket with a Round head, front view

    Round

    Large sweet spot low in the head and a balance close to the hand. Easy to handle and forgiving: the classic choice for control.

    Control
  • Plain black padel racket with a Teardrop head, front view

    Teardrop

    Sweet spot in the middle of the head and a medium balance. The all-rounder, for players who defend and attack.

  • This racketPlain black padel racket with a Diamond head, front view

    Diamond

    Sweet spot high in the head and a head-heavy balance. Built for power on smashes; it asks for good technique.

    Power
    Control

Whatever the shape, a padel racket measures up to 45.5 cm long and 26 cm wide, with a profile of 30 to 38 mm.

EVA core density

Inside every padel racket is a block of EVA foam. A softer, lower-density foam absorbs more of the impact and gives the ball an easy exit; a harder, denser foam returns more energy when you hit hard.

  • Cross-section of a racket with a Soft EVA foam core

    Soft Density 10–13

    The most comfortable feel and an easy ball exit at slow and medium pace. Maximum comfort and control.

    Density
    Comfort
    Power
  • This racketCross-section of a racket with a Medium EVA foam core

    Medium Density 15–17

    A balanced foam: comfortable enough for long rallies, firm enough to finish the point.

    Density
    Comfort
    Power
  • Cross-section of a racket with a Hard EVA foam core

    Hard Density 19–22

    A dense, firm foam that rewards fast, full swings with maximum power. Less comfortable on slow balls.

Surface finish

The top coat changes how the face looks, how it ages and how much it grips the ball.

  • This racketClose-up of a Glossy racket surface

    Glossy

    A smooth, shiny clear coat that makes colours stand out and wipes clean easily.

  • Close-up of a Matte racket surface

    Matte

    A satin, non-reflective coat with a premium look. It shows fewer fingerprints and small marks.

  • Close-up of a Sandy (textured) racket surface

    Sandy (textured)

    A gritty, rough coat that grips the ball a little more on brushed shots, to help you add spin.

Which one is for me?

A starting point by level. Your own feel on court always comes first.
