PadelDogs

Brands on the rack

Five makers make up the line-up. From Portugal comes Cork Padel, with the Extreme Deus II, Supreme Hybrid IV, Premium Hybrid III and Classic II. Varlion contributes the LW Cube ElbowCare W, built with control and comfort in mind, plus its Rega rackets. Completing the set are Shooter's Stealth, the Padelsmith #1 and two Royal Padel models, the Japan Pro and M27.

The shop says several lines can't be bought from any other UK retailer. They include Cork's Classic II and Premium III in five colourways, the Varlion Rega rackets and Shooter's models. Rackets are split into beginner, intermediate and advanced collections, which helps anyone unsure where to start.

Delivery and returns at a glance

Postage is free on every racket. Royal Mail Tracked 24 is quoted at 1 to 2 working days, though a few models travel Signed For 1st Class. Covers take 1 to 3 working days. Orders leave from within the UK, so there's no import tax to pay.

Changed your mind? Email within 30 days of delivery to ask for a return. The racket must be unplayed, in its original packaging and condition, with proof of purchase. Once a racket has been used on court, it won't be refunded. The cost of sending it back comes off the refund. Money lands on the card or account used within 10 business days of approval. Report anything faulty, damaged or incorrect as soon as it arrives.

Good to know

PadelDogs doesn't do part exchange. Players with an old racket to sell are pointed to RacketLoop, a different site for used padel kit. The business trades as Padel Dogs Limited, registered in Surbiton.
