Head 5 Inch Wristband
£6.50
The Head 5 inch wristband is a long sweatband for the racket forearm, built for padel and tennis players who want sweat caught before it reaches the handle.
Retailers list code 285070 as 90% nylon and 10% elastane. It's sold both as a pair and as a single band depending on the shop, and our listing doesn't say which, so ask us if you need two.

Why pick the long one
A 5 inch band covers more of the forearm than a short one, so it catches sweat that would otherwise run down to the grip. Zona de Padel and My Padel Life list the fabric as 90% nylon and 10% elastane, Galaxus says nylon and spandex, and Sportano lists polyamide with elastane.
Sportano files the 285070 under padel, badminton, squash and tennis. Prices differ a lot by shop, which makes sense, as some list a pair and some a single band. Check the pack size when you compare.
| If you | Look at |
|---|---|
| Want the long band | This Head 5 inch wristband |
| Want the short band as a pair | the short 2.5 inch pair |
| Want a forehead band | the Head forehead band |
| Want a tackier handle | Padel grips |
| Want to protect the racket frame | Head's frame-protection tape |
Not for you if
You need a verified pack size or a specific colour. Retailers sell this code as pairs and singles.
Wearing it
Slide it over the racket wrist and up the forearm, and swap it when it's soaked. If your grip slides, change the overgrip from padel grips as well. More sweat and comfort gear sits under padel accessories, and every racket we sell is under padel racket.
Care
Rinse it cool and air-dry it. Hot dryers wear out the stretch. Keep a spare in your padel bag.
