Babolat, driving the game since 1875
By innovating, we keep driving the game forward.
At Babolat, innovation is a fundamental value.
Ever since the invention of the VS racquet string, Babolat’s teams have been innovating non-stop to produce new breakthroughs on the market and to improve existing products, always keeping player performance as a primary objective.
Every product is the result of observing and analyzing the game and how it is played by club players and top professionals, combined with our technological expertise. For example, by studying the specific details of Rafael Nadal’s game, Babolat perfected his Aeroprodrive racquet with its unprecedented aerodynamic cross-section.

Our analysis of the game has also made us realize the importance of sideways and diagonal movements during tennis matches. This observation led to the birth of Babolat shoe technologies, which favor the specific movements of tennis players.
Babolat also initiates partnerships with companies and universities whose expertise is world-renowned. Michelin, for example, a ground contact specialist, works with us to design the outsoles of our shoes.Babolat is the oldest company specializing in racquet sports, and with our ability to innovate, we will keep making the game advance.
