adidas padel is expanding its product strategy with the launch of the ZZ capsule, a collection developed with Zinedine Zidane that brings the former footballer and coach’s signature to a padel product line for the first time.
The collection comprises two rackets -the Metalbone ZZ Carbon and Metalbone ZZ Team- alongside the Tour ZZ Racket Bag, designed around a shared aesthetic inspired by Zidane’s style and identity.
The launch builds on the long-standing relationship between the athlete and adidas, extending his image into a product range that combines exclusive design with technical features tailored to different player profiles.
Metalbone ZZ Carbon: precision and control for advanced players
The Metalbone ZZ Carbon is designed for advanced players seeking a combination of control, precision and power.
The racket features 3K carbon fibre in the frame and faces, combined with EVA Soft Performance rubber, a configuration intended to provide a comfortable feel and a precise response on impact.
Its main features include:
Round shape and medium balance, designed to support manoeuvrability and control.
Weight between 360 and 375 grams, according to the specifications provided for the model.
Centrally positioned sweet spot, designed to support shot accuracy.
Octagonal Structure, Extra Power Grip (EPG) and Low Poly, technologies intended to reinforce the structure and contribute to power.
Smart Holes Curve and Spin Blade Decal, solutions designed to facilitate spin generation.
The design combines white and champagne tones with the adidas logo and ZZ monogram. The racket is also presented in exclusive gold packaging, reinforcing the collection’s visual identity.
Metalbone ZZ Team: comfort and manoeuvrability
The second racket, the Metalbone ZZ Team, features a different construction, combining fibreglass faces with EVA Soft Performance rubber. This configuration is designed to provide a comfortable feel and smooth ball output.
It shares the Carbon version’s round shape, medium balance and weight range of 360 to 375 grams, prioritising manoeuvrability and control.
Its technical features include Octagonal Structure, Extra Power Grip (EPG) and Low Poly, alongside Smart Holes Curve and Spin Blade Gritt to support spin generation.
Visually, the racket combines black with soft gold details, retaining the adidas logo and ZZ monogram as key identifying elements.
Tour ZZ Racket Bag: completing the collection
The capsule is completed by the Tour ZZ Racket Bag, a white racket bag with gold details and adidas and Zidane branding.
Its design allows players to organise and carry rackets, clothing, footwear and other accessories for both training and competition.
A distinctive detail can also be found inside the bag: a ZZ graphic on the lining, created specifically for the adidas x Zidane collaboration.
A collaboration that expands the Metalbone range
With the ZZ capsule, adidas padel adds a new design and identity dimension to its product portfolio, connecting a recognised figure in international football with a collection combining technical equipment and exclusive design elements.
The range brings together two rackets with different constructions and a matching accessory, united by a visual identity that connects Zidane’s career with the Metalbone line.
