There is a large number of padel fans who believe that their performance depends solely and exclusively on the racket they use. Unfortunately, being better or worse is a matter of skill in the sport itself and many other factors. The racket is important, of course, but it is not the only product that determines what you achieve on the court. The footwear may well be the most underrated. Many people go out to play with running shoes or shoes that have nothing to do with padel, which is not only dangerous, but also inconvenient to get the full potential of the game in the matches.
For this reason, NOX presents its new footwear collection, adapted to all tastes and with the latest technologies, so that shoes are not an excuse when it comes to shine in the 20×10. All of them are clinically endorsed by podiatrist Marta Rueda, consultant to hundreds of elite sportsmen and women. They have also been certified by the INESCOP Footwear Technological Centre and tested in laboratories. A guarantee of success.
The Spanish brand has already had top quality pairs in previous years, but they continue to improve in every aspect in order to offer their consumers the best possible experience. So, without further ado, these are all the shoes that NOX has presented in its footwear collection for the end of the 2024 season:
The new NOX footwear collection for 2024
AT10 LIMITED EDITION
The AT10 is a classic of the brand. An unmistakable seal of quality that has been winning the hearts of those who have been buying them for several years now. Not only the shoes, but also the rackets. In this case, it is not only a product of this line, but a limited edition. The number of units for each size will be 100, so you will have to be quick in the purchase to be able to get a pair.
It has many technologies that favour support and reactivity in the most common padel movements, such as jumping, falling, lateral movement, starting and braking. The AGG, for example, raises the heel slightly to avoid overloading the calf muscles.
The Ortholite insoles or the Lateral Support make it more comfortable, but also the AbraXone increases the lifespan with better abrasion resistance. Not only that, but they have been awarded by Testea Padel as the best power shoe on the market.
AT10 LUX
Same quality, same distinctions, but not as exclusive as the previous one. It is not a unique target, but it is still one of the best shoes on the market. Not in vain, Testea Padel named it the best in terms of power. Agustin Tapia doesn’t put his stamp on just anything, and these AT10s are a real performance insurance on the court.
In terms of technologies, they are the same. Lateral support, exclusive padel sole for all surfaces, heel elevation, the best insoles and a series of additions make this shoe an excellent choice in terms of comfort and performance.
What changes is the design, as we will have a version that combines different shades of blue with white and another completely white with pastel details.
AT10 PRO
With the AT10 PRO we are talking about a product in the same line, but with a different philosophy. While the LUX is pure power and focused on performance, the PRO is a shoe where there is less mesh and more protective material.
It features the same technologies, which ensure maximum performance on the court, but there are some differences for those who prefer an alternative to the LUX. For example, the tongue is not incorporated into the rest of the shoe, but is separate. No better, no worse, it just depends on your taste.
The reinforcements also make this version seem a bit more durable, although it also depends on the use of each person and the type of footprint. In general, it has a more traditional aesthetic, for those who have trusted it in recent years and want to repeat. The new designs are white, with details in pink and dark blue; black and red; black, with details in gold; and completely white.
ML10 HEXA
If Agustín Tapia is a true idol of the masses, Miguel Lamperti, whose shoes are also in the collection, is not far behind. Again, a seal of unquestionable quality, but with a completely different style to the previous models.
On this occasion it is not a shoe that is so reinforced, but rather a breathable one, in which mesh predominates. A pair that adapts well to any type of foot and that stands out for the lightness of its materials. Even so, it still maintains the best NOX technologies, to take care of the health and performance of the players on the court.
Despite being less reinforced, it still has reinforcements in the key areas with more wear, to extend its durability and to be able to enjoy these ML10 HEXO for a long time.
In terms of colours, there are two: all-white with orange and blue accents in some areas and all-black.
NERBO
Finally, the Nerbo model is the middle ground between the previously mentioned models of NOX footwear. The AT10 had a pair that stood out for its power and innovations, with a more traditional pair with more reinforcements. In the ML10, lightness under a traditional silhouette, but with the best technologies. The last one mixes both concepts to cover all the needs of the market so that no one is left without a shoe to their liking.
At first glance, we can see that the mesh is also predominant, although it has small reinforcements that, without being those of the AT10, cover the product a bit more. However, its silhouette is much more similar to the LUX model, with the tongue also incorporated into the shoe.
In the end, it is a matter of preference, as they all have various features that make them more suitable for one player or another. What can’t be missing either are the technologies, which are also present in this version.
As for colours, again the contrast: some are completely black, with small details in lime and a white sole and others are almost all white, but with a blue sole.
Price and where to buy the new NOX footwear
All of them are the top of the range models from NOX, being real gems in the market. For this reason, their price is also in line with the performance, durability and technologies they offer. In addition, the quality guarantee is also something that is noticeable.
They are all available on the brand’s official website from 12 August 2024. The AT10 LUX are priced at €140; their sisters, the PROs, are slightly cheaper at €120; the ML10 HEXA are €130; while the NERBOs are also €140.
