Babolat men’s tennis shoe ranges
If the French brand Babolat is particularly known for its rackets and its strings, it also makes tennis shoes for all types of players, of all sizes and for all types of surfaces. Several big players equip themselves with Babolat shoes for men, such as Evgeny Donskoy and Frederico Delbonis with the Jet Match 2 All Court as well as Benoit Paire with the Propulse Fury. Official partner of the Wimbledon tournament, the Babolat brand is developing several ranges to provide each player with a shoe that suits their experience and practice of tennis:
- The Jet Mach range offers a compendium of technologies to provide lightweight, comfortable shoes with good support. Babolat often reissues these models in order to bring them up to date and include new developments in their technologies;
- The Jet Tere range offers lightness and comfort for intermediate to advanced players;
- The Propulse range is geared towards power to allow changes of direction and lateral movements in complete safety. Ideal for powerful and explosive players.
Technologies used in Babolat tennis shoes
Babolat is a brand focused on innovation that develops technologies to improve its equipment. Depending on the different ranges of shoes, you will therefore be able to find different systems and technologies to improve the support, comfort, stability, breathability and even resistance to wear of the shoe:
- Michelin soles: since 2003, Babolat has partnered with Michelin to develop tennis, padel and badminton shoes. The company specializing in rubber is therefore developing new materials for Babolat from its center in Ladoux in Puy-de-Dôme. You will therefore be able to find Michelin Prenium DIN20 and Michelin Intermediate DIN35 technologies on the Jet Match, Jet Tere and Propose Rage and Fury shoes;
- Matryx: Matryx fabric is developed in close collaboration by Babolat and Chamatex, a company specializing in high-performance technical fabrics. Matryx fabrics are made in France and composed of very resistant Aramid and Polyamide fibers distributed over certain areas to provide flexibility, support and breathability;
- KPRS-X: EVA foam is inserted under the heel to reduce harshness and provide better shock absorption and cushioning;
- Active Flexion: this technology was patented and developed entirely by Babolat. It allows the sole materials to be segmented into 9 pressure points to provide a more responsive shoe;
- PowerBelt: a strap guarantees better support for the heel and instep, all reinforced by a higher collar to better wrap the foot;
- 360 Insock: The tongue construction is integrated into the shoe, providing a sensation of wrapping the foot and preventing it from moving around when moving.
