It's 10 Days to Christmas! Here Are the Best Last-Minute Padel Gifts
Dec 13, 2025
The 10-day Christmas countdown is on. The panic is real.
You've got a padel addict in your life, and they are impossible to buy for. They seem to own three rackets already, and you're pretty sure they're all different… but you’re not sure about the details.
So, don't buy them a new racket. It's a R6,000 mistake waiting to happen.
The best Christmas padel gifts are the ones they'll use every single game. This is your ultimate guide to the stocking fillers and gear that every player wants, with great options starting from just R50.
The Performance Upgrades (Perfect Stocking Fillers)
These are the small gifts that make a huge difference on the court.
-
Grips. A game-changer.
A Bullpadel Single Overgrip (starting from R50) or a 3-Pack (from R225) provides the tackiness and sweat absorption to stop the racket from slipping in a hot final set.
-
Balls. You can never have enough. Seriously.
A fresh sleeve of Hyko Pro Tour Balls (R150) or Head Pro S+ Balls (R175) is a gift every single player will appreciate.
-
Frame protectors are cheap insurance.
A Black Crown Frame Protector (starting from R95) is the best way to protect their special racket from those inevitable (and painful) scrapes against the glass.
-
Wristbands and grip enhancers for the player who battles the heat.
A Black Crown Wristband (from R125) or a Gorilla Gold Grip Enhancer (on sale for R195) for that instant, tacky feel, giving them maximum racket control.
The "Wow" Gifts (That Aren't a Racket)
Want something a bit bigger? This is the gear they probably want but won't buy for themselves.
A proper padel bag is a massive upgrade.
A stylish Black Crown Magic Backpack (on sale for R1,495) or a full-size Siux Diablo Sanyo Bag on sale for (R1,995) protects their gear in style and has separate compartments for shoes and sweaty clothes.
Stylish apparel to look the part.
A new cap or visor (from R399) and some specialist grip socks (From R195) are a guaranteed win.
The gadgets are a great touch.
A score tracker (R395) is perfect for that friendly match that gets a little too competitive, and a Ball Pressuriser (like the Bullpadel Pascal Box) keeps their new balls fresher for longer.
