No Strings
Who we are
No Strings was created by Jacques and James, two friends and former colleagues who swapped spreadsheets for padel courts.
While padel’s popularity has surged in recent years, we couldn’t help but feel the game’s style hasn’t evolved much since it first broke out of Latin America in the 70s. This is at odds with the many discerning players who value expressing themselves through aesthetics as well as performance, leaving them with limited options.
No Strings redefines padel with timeless, understated style and uncompromising craft. Our products transition effortlessly from the court to everyday life, setting a new standard for how the sport looks and feels.
We’re based in Cape Town and London, places that are deeply woven into the brand's DNA.
Design philosophy
Drawing much of our inspiration from vintage tennis aesthetics, we merge old-money nostalgia with modern engineering to create designs that look as good as they feel.
No Strings consciously bypasses the loud, flashy branding and empty buzzwords that dominate the market. Instead, we focus on the fundamentals - no gimmicks, just quality craftsmanship and an understated look that speaks for itself.
Join the club
While our product line continues to expand, our mission stays the same: to offer players gear that feels authentic, performs exceptionally, and fosters a true sense of connection both on and off the court.
The Clubhouse is our community of like-minded players, where we share exclusive padel insights and invite members to be part of our journey as we grow and reshape the sport together.
