Frequently Asked Questions
Can you wear glasses playing padel?
Yes, but everyday prescription glasses aren't built for it. Padel's fast lateral movement, overhead shots, and close-range ball contact can make standard frames slip, fog, or shift mid-point. Players who need vision correction typically use contact lenses or prescription sports eyewear designed for secure fit and impact resistance, rather than their regular pair.
What are the best sunglasses for playing padel?
The best padel sunglasses are lightweight, wraparound, and built to stay in place through sudden movement. Look for lenses that cut glare and hold contrast, since you're often tracking the ball against bright sky or reflective glass walls. Sport-specific frames also resist fogging better than casual sunglasses over a long outdoor match.
What makes Addictive different from generic sports sunglasses?
Addictive designs specifically for padel rather than adapting a general running or cycling frame. Several models are developed with input from players competing on tour, which shapes details like frame coverage and lens tint toward outdoor court conditions rather than a one-size sport design.
Are Addictive sunglasses made for outdoor or indoor padel?
Addictive's padel eyewear is built with outdoor play in mind, where sun, glare, and glass wall reflections are the main visual challenges. Indoor players still get impact protection and a secure fit from the same frames, just with less need for a dark tint.
