Pro padel players wear light technical shirts, shorts and skirts made by a clothing sponsor. On the tour, a rulebook decides how many sponsor logos they can carry, which brands can't sponsor them at all, and when they're allowed to change.
At your club, you wear whatever sports kit you like. And once you leave the court, nobody is counting logos.
Here's who dresses five of the best known players, what the Premier Padel rulebook actually says, and the gap it leaves.
Who dresses the top players
Sponsor deals move every season, so treat this as a snapshot. Every line below links to the page it came from, checked on 19 October 2026.
| Player | Clothing brand | What the source says |
|---|---|---|
| Arturo Coello | On | On signed him in January 2026 as its first padel athlete. On's own release is about padel shoes, due in summer 2027. Padel Addict reports On will dress him on court too, with HEAD staying as his racket brand. |
| Paula Josemaría | Oysho | Padel Addict reported in January 2026 that Oysho had named her its padel ambassador, and that she will wear Oysho's technical collections in competition and in training. |
| Alejandro Galán | adidas | All For Padel, adidas's padel licensee, announced a renewed deal in June 2024: Galán keeps the three stripes and the Metalbone racket. The same site sells an adidas padel shirt named after him. |
| Federico Chingotto | Bullpadel | Bullpadel makes a line of Chingotto shirts, some labelled as his official shirt, listed by retailer Padel Market. |
| Juan Lebrón | Babolat | Babolat launched a Juan Lebrón collection in May 2023: shirts, shorts and hoodies with his wolf logo. At the time, Babolat said he was fully equipped by the brand. |
Two patterns stand out. Some deals are with sportswear giants (adidas, On). Others are with racket brands that also make clothing (Bullpadel, Babolat). And the newest moves on this list, Coello to On and Josemaría to Oysho, both landed in January 2026.

What the rulebook says about pro kit
Premier Padel publishes separate rulebooks for the men's and women's tours on the FIP's website. Both are version 2026/2, in force from 1 June 2026, and the clothing section (6.1) says the same thing in each, give or take a few words.
The basics, like matching colours within a pair, are covered in our padel dress code guide. This is the part about sponsors and logos, which most people never see.
The tour gets a spot on the chest
Section 6.1.3 gives Premier Padel the right to "one (1) space on the left or right chest" of the shirt for its own logo. That applies to players ranked in the top 100 at the start of the season, for the whole season. Players outside the top 100 are asked to make every effort to give up the same space.
A cap on personal sponsor logos
Players get a set number of "Advertising Spaces" for their own sponsors, with sizes fixed in an appendix. Then come the limits:
- Ranked in the top 20 at the start of the season: no more than five personal sponsor logos per tournament. From the 2028 season, that drops to three.
- Ranked outside the top 20: no more than nine, until the start of the 2031 season. (This is the women's rulebook wording. The men's PDF has a clear typo in the same clause.)
- Wear a cap with a sponsor on it, and you lose one Advertising Space on the rest of your kit.
So from 2028, the shirts at the very top of the rankings will carry fewer personal sponsor logos.
Sponsors that are banned outright
The rulebook says prohibited personal sponsors include companies in "gambling, betting, alcoholic beverages and tobacco". There's one carve-out: drinks brands can sponsor players with their non-alcoholic products only.
Name and logo lines
There's a definition for a "Player ID": a player's name, initials or other mark used only on padel apparel and accessories. The rules let it be used interchangeably with the clothing maker's own logo, as long as that logo is allowed. Babolat's Lebrón range, with his wolf on one side of the chest and the Babolat logo on the other, shows what a player's own mark on a collection looks like.
The fines
Break the logo rules and the automatic fine is €300, doubling with each repeat in the same season (€600, then €1,200, and so on). Breaches of the clothing section can also be fined by round, from up to €100 per player in qualifying to up to €5,000 per player for finalists. Refuse an order to change and a player can be fined or removed from the tournament.
Changing kit mid-match
A player can leave court to change clothes, but only at the end of a set. The limit is three minutes, or five if it's combined with a toilet break. Each pair gets a maximum of two authorised breaks per match in total, whether for the toilet, a change or both.
When the rules apply
This is the line that matters for the rest of us. Kit has to comply "from the start of the pre-match meeting to the award ceremony." The rule on looking professional also stretches to practice, media and promotional work during the event.
Then the window closes.
Padelism is not affiliated with Premier Padel or the FIP.
What this means for your own kit
Pro kit is built for one job: long matches, often in heat, on camera, carrying sponsors. The replica shirts brands sell reflect that. adidas padel lists its Galán shirt as recycled polyester with mesh panels under the arms. Babolat describes its Lebrón range as "fiber dry fabric".
You can buy those and play in them. But no club rule asks you for a sponsor, a logo count or a shirt that matches your partner's. If you're deciding what to actually play in, our guide to cotton tees vs technical padel tops goes through it.
And if you want to see the pros' kit in action this season, here's how to watch Premier Padel in the UK.
The off-court gap
Look at that rulebook window again. Pre-match meeting to award ceremony. The drive home, the drink after, dinner, the flight to the next stop: none of it falls inside that window.
That's the part I make clothes for. Padelism is off-court padel clothing, designed in London. I wear it every day, to the gym, to work meetings and on nights out in London.

FAQ
Can I buy the same shirt a pro padel player wears? Often, yes. Brands sell replica and signature shirts. adidas padel sells a shirt named after Ale Galán, Bullpadel makes a Chingotto line, and Babolat sells a Juan Lebrón collection. Check whether it's described as the match shirt or "inspired by" the player.
How many sponsor logos can a pro padel player wear? Under the 2026 Premier Padel rulebooks, players ranked in the top 20 at the start of the season can show no more than five personal sponsor logos per tournament, dropping to three from 2028. Players outside the top 20 can show up to nine until 2031.
Can a betting company sponsor a pro padel player? Not on the Premier Padel tour. The rulebook lists gambling, betting, alcoholic drinks and tobacco among prohibited personal sponsors. Drinks brands can only sponsor with non-alcoholic products.
Can pro padel players change their shirt during a match? Yes, but only at the end of a set. A clothing change break lasts up to three minutes, or five with a toilet break, and each pair gets two authorised breaks per match in total.
