Davor Padel
High quality rackets for all levels
Our History
Our brand was created in 1975 by Alojz Valencic, a Croatian immigrant living in Argentina, who professed a deep love for sport and always had the objective of manufacturing high-quality products; these are the reasons why Davor quickly gained recognition for its garments specially designed for skiing and yachting.
The beginning of Davor’s relationship with padel dates back to 1988, when we launched our first padel racket, maintaining an uninterrupted presence since then in this wonderful sport.
