Yes, padel shoes have a specific sole with micro-dots for grip on artificial surfaces. Regular sports shoes slip too much. Padel socks with extra cushioning also prevent blisters during many start-stop movements.

On average, a padel racket lasts 6 to 12 months with regular use (2-3 times per week). Watch for signs like vibrations, a dull sound when hitting the ball, or visible cracks in the frame. Protect your racket with a bag to extend its life.
