Padel Overgrips
Hesacore
£7-8
The Hesacore Tour Grip is a distinctive base grip that uses a hexagonal cell pattern to redistribute pressure across the palm, an approach that has gained a strong following among professional padel players. Rather than the smooth tube of a traditional grip, the Hesacore creates raised hexagonal points that the hand naturally settles into, which the brand says reduces the muscular tension associated with elbow injuries. It is typically fitted under an overgrip rather than used bare. Players adapting from a smooth handle often need a few sessions to acclimatise, but many report a more relaxed grip and reduced forearm fatigue afterwards. Available through Padel Nuestro UK and Amazon UK at around £7-8, it has become a popular upgrade for padel players concerned about tennis elbow or wrist strain. It is a niche but well-regarded ergonomic option.

The Hesacore Tour Grip is a genuinely different product in a market dominated by smooth tube-style grips. Its hexagonal cell pattern creates raised contact points that the hand wraps around, redistributing pressure across the palm in a way the brand argues reduces the muscle tension associated with tennis elbow and wrist strain. It sits underneath an overgrip rather than replacing one, so existing tacky or dry overgrip preferences carry over. The first few hits feel unusual, almost like gripping a six-sided handle, but most players adapt within a session or two and start to notice a more relaxed forearm afterwards. It has been adopted by several professional padel players, which has driven much of its UK growth, and it is increasingly stocked by Padel Nuestro UK and Amazon UK in the £7-8 range. Players who frequently overgrip the racket out of habit, or who suffer from grip-related fatigue, are the clearest beneficiaries. It is not a magic cure for elbow problems, but it is a thoughtful ergonomic upgrade that has earned its following honestly through player feedback rather than marketing alone. Installation requires removing the original handle grip and replacing it with the Hesacore, which is a more involved fitting than swapping an overgrip, so most players ask their local club stringer to handle the first install while they get used to the new feel.
