Yonex Racket Bags
Yonex racket bags are designed to fit the entire tennis or badminton racket, including the handle. This is a key difference compared to backpacks, as the rackets remain fully secured inside the bag, preventing frame friction and string damage during transport.
Main Features and Materials
Most bags are made from durable polyester and polyurethane (PU), ensuring the bag retains its shape and remains highly resistant to wear and tear. Some Yonex racket bag models include an insulation layer that helps maintain a more stable temperature inside the compartment, preventing strings from losing tension too quickly due to cold or heat. One of the primary functions of these bags is thoughtful organization, featuring a separate shoe compartment to keep clothing clean. Additionally, side pockets are included for storing small items like keys and phones.
- 6-Racket Bag: Features two main compartments. In practice, it holds 2 to 3 rackets, while the remaining space is used for shoes, a towel, and a t-shirt. Suitable for regular weekly training.
- 9-Racket Bag: Features three main compartments. This is the most versatile choice, as it allows rackets, clean clothes, and footwear to be kept completely separate.
- 12-Racket Bag: The largest tournament version with three wide compartments. It is designed for those who need more space for gear and a higher number of rackets.
When to choose a 6, 9, or 12-racket bag?
The bag's capacity does not only determine the number of rackets but also the total volume for additional equipment:
- 6-Racket Bag: Ideal for recreational players. It has two main compartments. Usually, you pack 2-3 rackets, with the rest of the space occupied by shoes, a towel, and clothes.
- 9-Racket Bag: The standard choice for competitive players. Three separate compartments allow for perfect organization: one for rackets, one for clean clothes, and a middle one for all other essentials.
- 12-Racket Bag: Intended for tournament players and professionals who need room for a large number of rackets, foam rollers, multiple pairs of shoes, and extra nutrition.
