Raquex Elite Quilted Padel Bag

The only dimensions we could find are on an Amazon UK listing: 63 cm wide, 31 cm high and 27 cm deep. Raquex's own page describes the capacity rather than the size, which is up to four padel or pickleball rackets. A padel racket is about 45.5 cm long, so it sits comfortably across the width with room for a grip at one end.

Raquex says each thermal compartment takes one racket comfortably or two snugly. If you carry two rackets, you get a spare in each side. Fill all four slots and the frames will touch, which is fine for a casual group and less so for rackets with fragile paint.

Raquex lists two thermal-lined racket compartments and a separate shoe tunnel, with padded sides for knocks. The quilted exterior is described as faux leather, and an Amazon listing names it as PU leather. A third-party guide also mentions a central compartment with netted and zipped pockets, which is not how Raquex words it, so check the pocket layout when it arrives if that matters to you.

We found only a handful of reviews, mostly on Raquex's own site, and one of them praised the quality and look. A listing for the matching cover drew a comment about a smell. That is one reviewer on a different product, but PU leather can smell new for a while, so let it air.

Players who carry one racket, anyone who wants a backpack and anyone who needs a waterproof rating, which we could not find for this bag. A 63 cm bag is a lot of luggage for a single racket and a towel. The plainer Elite padel racket bag has straps and a zip but fewer published features. For a plain one-racket rucksack there is the Raquex racket backpack. For lighter loads, the Raquex Elite Racquet Backpack is the compact option, and our padel bag page lists the rest.

A racket protector on each frame stops them rubbing together, a spare overgrip from the padel grips range lives in a side pocket, and a tube of padel balls fits in the main space. Keep padel shoes in the tunnel so sand stays off your kit.

If the bag is a gift for a newer player, pair it with something from our beginner padel rackets page, our guide to choosing a padel racket explains what to look for, and the padel racket range builds out the rest.
