We have stocked Adidas for a number of years, as they have produced some of the most innovative products for all sports, but particularly tennis, for years. The Barricade range of tennis shoes and clothing has been going for a number of years in various re-incarnations. Major tennis players who have worn the clothing over the years have included Stefanos Tsitsipas, Felix Auger Aliassime and Maria Sakkari. Adidas now makes some of the lightest and most comfortable shoes available in the marketplace, with a number of styles taking over the mantle of the iconic Barricade.
Elongated-shaped pickleball paddles are generally power-focused. These are designed for aggressive players who put more force behind attacking shots and react quickly during fast volleys. The elongated shape provides additional reach and leverage to help generate greater power.
Standard and Hybrid shape pickleball paddles are usually all-round focused. These are designed for players seeking a versatile balance between power and control, making them suitable for a wide range of playing styles and providing a balanced combination of reach, manoeuvrability, touch and attacking potential.
Widebody-shaped pickleball paddles are control-focused. These are designed for players who prioritise precision, placement and touch. They are generally widebody-shaped, providing a larger and more forgiving hitting area for players who rely on accurate shot-making, resets and strategic play while still being able to generate power when required.
