A newcomer to the padel scene, today we present the padel brand Osaka. Founded in Belgium, the manufacturer provides everything a padel player needs: rackets, apparel, shoes, and even accessories. Having started out in hockey, Osaka naturally moved into padel thanks to their expertise in technical carbon products and to ride the wave of padel's growing popularity. With a design inspired by Japanese culture, the brand brings a bold yet confident identity. Relive the golden age of samurai and iconic anime through a padel lens with Osaka!
The Pro range: enjoy the best rackets on the market!
The Osaka Pro range showcases its most technologically advanced rackets, primarily intended for experienced players. All rackets from this brand feature Japanese carbon—one of the strongest on the market—along the edge to add stiffness and protect the racket from potential knocks against the cage and glass walls.
Osaka Pro Tour Control Touch: between stiffness and precision
For this first racket, we look here at the Pro Tour Control Touch, a very rigid racket made of high-density carbon. Indeed, with its 18,000 carbon fibre monofilaments, the pala is quite hard, giving it excellent qualities of power and precision, at the expense of some comfort. In addition, with its dense foam similar to a Hard Eva, the Pro Tour Control Touch boasts very good responsiveness to any type of ball. The combination of these elements makes it a powerful and very precise racket that lets you do everything on the court.
To counterbalance all of this, Osaka opted for a round shape that adds great control to the racket. With its weight centred towards the handle, it is very manoeuvrable. This distinctive combination of stiffness and control allows the racket to be versatile.
This racket has a different version called Vision Pro Control Touch, with many shared features, starting with the design. The only difference lies in the density of the carbon faces: it goes from 18k to 3k. Much more flexible, the racket sees a reduction in power but an increase in control and tolerance. It is more accessible and easier to play with. Ideal for players who prefer lobs over smashes.
Osaka Pro Tour Control Snap: Hardness at the service of touch
In line with the previous racket, Osaka introduces the Pro Tour Control Snap. Also considered a racket aimed at experts, it features 18k carbon faces and is quite rigid. This provides the pala with very good power return and precision despite reduced comfort. However, its round shape makes it very manoeuvrable, making it a racket focused on control and command.
However, the big difference with the Pro Tour Control Touch lies in the foam. Where the foam was rigid on the other racket, this one features a softer, more flexible foam, which provides extra comfort and control at the expense of power.
Also available on our website is the Vision version of this racket: the Vision Pro Control. The only difference with the Snap version is the carbon density. Much more flexible (3k), this combination makes it a racket entirely focused on control and precision, suitable for expert and intermediate players alike.
Aero Range: Designed for intermediate players
Moving to a different range, we have the Aero, the advanced/intermediate line from Osaka. More accessible, these rackets suit less experienced players, from level 5 upwards.
Osaka Vision Aero Power: Maximum versatility
We start with the Vision Aero Power, presented by the brand in a teardrop shape and offering very well-rounded characteristics. With its fibreglass faces, a fairly flexible material, you will enjoy great control and comfortable hits. The teardrop shape, sitting between diamond and round, centres the racket's balance in the middle of the face, ideal for mastering as many shots as possible. The chosen foam is the brand's own Osaka Snap Foam. Fairly soft, it adds good ball control and makes the racket forgiving. Incredibly versatile, this brightly coloured racket will support you as you progress.
Osaka Vision Aero Control: Master every aspect of your game
Similar to the Vision Aero Power, the Aero Control has all the characteristics of a full control racket. With its fibreglass faces, control is enhanced, as is comfort upon ball impact. That means no more silly mistakes and no more tennis elbow. The foam is also flexible, offering better vibration absorption and increasing the precision of your shots. But the main difference lies in the shape, where we have a round shape here, much more manoeuvrable than its Aero Power sibling. All these features make it a racket focused on control, comfort, and high accessibility.
Osaka Deshi Control: for a confident start
Osaka hasn't forgotten beginners, which is why the Deshi Control was created. Available in several colours: Black/Green or White/Blue, it is ideal for players looking for their first padel racket. With its round shape, it is very manoeuvrable and helps minimise unforced errors, which can be quite frustrating when you start playing. With its Soft foam, ball control is enhanced, allowing you to better feel the ball on the racket. Comfort is also front and centre, as the faces are made of fibreglass to keep vibrations to a minimum. Give yourself every chance to improve and become the ultimate padel player.
Osaka Ido MK1 padel shoe: grip in all conditions!
No more slipping or losing your footing on court with the new Osaka Ido MK1 padel shoe, the brand's flagship model. With its 4 different types of herringbone under the sole, enjoy exceptional grip on all types of surfaces. Another key feature, the "O Spot", located under the cuboid bone of the foot, is a special rubber piece that improves the shoe's balance and harmonises footwork. Highly comfortable thanks to its multiple interior pads, the various materials used on the outside of the shoe also make it very durable. A must-have to prevent injuries and move smoothly across the court!
Osaka Padel Classic Unisex Sweatshirt: Stylish together!
Along with shoes and a racket, you also need the right clothing for the complete true padel player kit. That is why Osaka has also created sweatshirts that can be worn both on the court and in everyday life. Featuring the brand's logo in the centre, wear this jumper right from the warm-up to set the tone for your opponents. Very comfortable thanks to its 80% cotton construction, match with your partner with this unisex sweatshirt!
Although brand new to padel, Osaka intends to make its mark thanks to its many quality rackets. With several ranges spanning from expert to beginner, the brand stands out as very complete, offering technical and comfortable apparel and shoes as well. So don't hesitate, everything is available on Esprit Padel Shop.
