Bullpadel Beker Womens Padel Shoes 24I (White and Pink)

The part that matters most is the outsole: high-density rubber in a herringbone pattern, the deep zigzag that bites through the loose sand on most UK outdoor courts and sheds it again as you move. On a freshly dressed outdoor court it grips well. Indoors, on a court with very little sand, a herringbone sole can feel a touch sticky when you try to slide, which our padel shoes page explains alongside the omni and hybrid alternatives.

Above it sits a Phylon midsole for cushioning and a central TPU piece Bullpadel calls Mid Stab, which stiffens the shoe through the arch so it doesn't twist when you push off sideways. The insole is EVA with a textile reinforcement, stitched to the midsole rather than loose. The upper is a heat-sealed, stitch-free Thermo Sealed build lined with Breathmesh, and there's a toe bumper for the foot you drag on a low volley.

We have the Beker 24I in UK 3.5, 6.5 and 8. On Bullpadel's own chart those are EU 36, 40 and 42, for feet of about 218mm, 248mm and 259mm. There's nothing in between, so if you're a UK 5 this isn't your pair. Bullpadel builds its women's shoes on a women's last rather than shrinking a men's one, so if you normally take a half size up in unisex trainers, check your foot against the millimetre figure rather than guessing.

If you play once or twice a week, the Beker 24I does everything a padel shoe needs to: a court-specific sole, a stabiliser and enough cushioning for an hour and a half. The Elite 26V is built for players who train often, with a grippier hybrid sole and a more structured upper, and the Pearl Vibram, Bea González's shoe, moves to a Vibram compound that retailers describe as high-grip and durable. Between those, the Perf Comfort 26I adds a hybrid sole and a forefoot pivot disc, and it comes in every half size from UK 5 to 7 plus an 8. The older Beker 2023 is the same idea as this one with no surviving spec sheet.

Newer players get more from the right racket than from any shoe. Our beginner racket page covers the shapes and weights that forgive early mistakes, and the women's padel racket page explains why lighter versions of the same frames exist.
