Osaka - SS26 Padel Collection

Osaka SS26 padel rackets in pink, teal and lime on a blue court

The SS26 Osaka Padel collection was built around one clear goal: creating a range that feels genuinely unique, both visually and technically. Instead of relying on standard off-the-shelf colours, the collection was developed through custom metallic paints created in close collaboration with the factory’s paint specialists. Inspired by real-world references photographed on the streets, colours like Transformative Teal and Ferite Green were carefully refined into exclusive finishes with depth, movement and personality. Especially Ferite Green became a standout within the collection, evolving into one of the most distinctive colours I’ve worked on to date. The attention to detail continued throughout the entire range. For the top-end rackets, even the foil applications were custom developed. Rather than using standard silver, gold or holographic foils, transparent colour layers were printed over specialised foil bases to create unique visual effects that shift depending on light and viewing angle.
