Racquet Bags

BABOLAT PURE DRIVE RACQUET BAG X9
We stock a large selection of racquet bags for tennis, squash, and badminton
We stock a large inventory of racquet bags for tennis, squash, and badminton in our southwest Calgary store.

However, racquet bags are highly seasonal. Particular styles and colours sell out quickly and it is impossible for us to have all bags in stock in all colours at all times.

We advise customers who are looking for a particular bag to order it online and then choose SHIP TO STORE. We will email you when your bag is ready to pick up. If the bag you want is unavailable, we will cancel the order and issue a refund.

All brands change their racquet bags change every year. So a bag that was available in a particular colour or style one year will not be available the following year. However, we carry new colours/styles at all three price points every season.

Squash Eyewear for Over Top of Your Glasses

i-Mask Protective Eyewear System
I-Mask ™ is the only certified over-glasses option for tournament squash players.

Racquet sports, believe it or not, are the No. 1 cause of serious eye injuries world-wide. In squash, it is estimated that one-in-four players will suffer an eye injury at some point if they choose not to protect themselves.

While it is possible to get hit in the eye with the ball during a squash match, the greatest danger, by far, comes from your opponent’s racquet. This is especially true when your opponent is hitting a backhand in the vicinity of the tee.

Protect yourself with certified eye protection. If you don’t normally wear glasses, look for squash or safety goggles with plenty of venting on the sides and out the top of the frame. This will prevent condensation from forming on the inside of the lenses.

If you do wear glasses, consider buying an I-Mask. I have played with one for years. I haven’t won any beauty contests while wearing it, but I haven’t suffered any eye injuries either.

Remember that goggles get scratched and need to be replaced from time to time. So keep that in mind when purchasing a new pair.

Fortunately, the I-Mask system allows players to replace just the lens once the lens become scratched. There is no need to be the entire system all over again.

I-Mask Protective Eyewear

NO FOGGING OR HAZING i-MASK is the player’s first choice because it has eliminated all the disadvantages of competitive products like: fogging, hazing, nose discomfort and restricted peripheral vision.

PROTECTION FOR PLAYERS WHO WEAR GLASSES The visor can be worn over glasses, supporting them & helping to protect the spectacles from impact on lenses or frames.

LETS YOU LOOK LIKE YOURSELF The i-MASK visor does not have a frame around the visor. You look more as though you’re wearing a sweatband than eyewear. And if you’ve just played a great game, isn’t it nice to be able to be recognised?

FULL PERIPHERAL VISION There is virtually no vision restriction. See a testimonial.

LIGHTWEIGHT Because the i-MASK visor weighs so little, you’re likely to forget you’re wearing it.

YOU CAN REPLACE INDIVIDUAL PARTS You can buy replacements for all parts of the i-MASK visor so you don’t have to buy a whole new unit if one part is damaged or lost.

JUNIOR SIZE i-MASK Junior size visor is just 11% smaller than the adult size. It is just perfect for the 7 – 10 year old or the very small adult. The i-MASK Junior visor has all the safety features of the adult size, with more protection for the face than other eyewear, and unrestricted vision

2 YEAR WARRANTY The i-MASK visor is manufactured from optically clear polycarbonate and is virtually unbreakable and has a 2 year warranty on all fixing points.

Foggy Squash Goggles

Sport Mate Anti-Fog Wipes
Sport Mate Anti-Fog Wipes
Question: During long squash matches, my squash goggles often fog up. What can I do to stop this?

Not all goggles are created equal. Nor is every design well-suited to every player. Players who play hard or who sweat a lot during squash matches occasionally have trouble with foggy goggles.

For these players, it is important to begin with goggles that do not fit too snugly to their faces. Space is needed on the sides and at the top of the frame. This will prevent hot, moist air from being trapped behind the lenses.

Players can also take steps to better regulate their body temperatures to avoid excessive, and sometimes dangerous, overheating. Modern squash clothing, for example, is made of technologically advanced materials that wick moisture away from the body. Crew neck tee shirts also trap heat more than v-necked shirts or collared shirts.

Another problem that often contributes to foggy goggles is sweat from the forehead running down behind the lenses into the player’s eyes. This is easily prevented with a head band. Players who sweat excessively should carry several of them in their squash bag and change it as needed during their match.

Players with persistent foggy goggle trouble should also develop the habit of removing their goggles and towelling their faces off frequently. In most cases, the fog that appears on the insides of the lenses forms between points and between games. Toweling off will cool the skin and remove the moisture that is causing their goggles to fog.
