Aston Martin and Padeltek have joined forces on a padel equipment range, with the rackets due to go on sale this week. The collection includes three padel rackets and three cover bags.
Around this weekend’s United States Grand Prix in Austin, the partners will host an I / AM fan event at Padel Society, a new padel venue.
Matt Chapman, Aston Martin’s head of licensing and merchandise, said the team was seeing growing demand from fans for links between sport and lifestyle. He described Aston Martin as the first F1 team to formally partner with a padel and pickleball company.
Ron Saslow, founding and managing partner of Thirty-5 Capital, presented the collaboration as a way for racing fans to connect with their team while introducing more people to padel. The sport is also becoming more popular among F1 drivers, many of whom now include it in their training routines.
The partnership is planned to expand in 2027, with pickleball rackets and accessories due for release.
