FAQ
About our rackets
Which racket is right for me — Black or White?
The KATANA 1.0 Black is our most powerful racket, best suited to intermediate and advanced players who want extra pace and aggression in their game. The KATANA 1.0 White is our all-rounder — perfect for beginners and intermediate players who want a great balance of power and control.
Are these rackets good for beginners?
Absolutely. The KATANA 1.0 White is specifically designed with beginners in mind — lightweight, easy to manoeuvre, and forgiving on off-centre hits. Many of our customers picked up padel for the first time with a KATANA and haven't looked back.
What makes the KATANA rackets different?
Honestly? The design. We built the KATANA to be the best looking racket on any court — inspired by Japanese heritage and samurai craftsmanship. But it's not just looks — carbon fibre faces, EVA foam cores, and obsessive attention to detail mean they perform as good as they look.
What is the racket made of?
The KATANA 1.0 features a carbon fibre face for explosive power and an EVA memory foam core for control and vibration absorption. The frame combines glass fibre and carbon reinforcement for durability and flex.
What size are the rackets?
Our rackets are standard padel size suitable for all adult players.

About Samurai Padel Co.
Who are you?
We're Kai and Mark, two British-Japanese brothers who built Samurai Padel Co. because we couldn't find rackets that matched the quality and design of the game we loved. Based in the UK, we're a small brand with big ambitions — and we're just getting started.
Where are you based?
We're a UK-based brand, which means fast domestic shipping and a team you can actually get hold of if you need us.
