HERO - LOK HEINEKEN

AMSTERDAM, Dec. 09, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Heineken® 0.0 and LÕK today announce the Special Edition Heineken® 0.0 x LÕK collection, featuring a Special Heineken® 0.0 edition of the LÕK Jungle, the first-ever padel racket with a built-in bottle opener, making it easier than ever to shift from on court rallies to refreshing post-match beers.

The Special Edition Heineken® 0.0 x LÕK Jungle racket is match-ready and built by the premium padel brand LÕK for intermediate-level players, combining performance with playful design. Its mixed-carbon frame, oversized diamond head, and flex-fiber surface ensure precision and power on court, while the built-in bottle opener adds a social twist for post-match moments.

Complementing the racket, Heineken® 0.0 has released limited-edition padel balls packaged like Heineken six-packs. From April 2026, the full Special Edition Heineken® x LÕK collection will be available in select markets around the world online and at Heineken-serving padel clubs.

Padel is a sport built on social connections, with 73% of players citing socialising and having fun as a core reason for playing matches that often end with a post-game beer. And as padel continues its rapid global rise, with nearly one new court opening every hour—Heineken® 0.0 is deepening its commitment to the game’s energetic and wellness-driven community.

The collection complements Heineken® 0.0’s expanding presence in padel following recently announced global partnerships with Playtomic, the leading racket sports booking platform, and Premier Padel, the professional tour that’s shaping the sport’s future. Together, these initiatives reinforce Heineken® 0.0’s ambition to connect players on and off the court, creating more opportunities for sociable, refreshing moments.

Nabil Nasser, Global Head of Heineken, said: “Sociability is at the heart of Heineken® 0.0, and padel is a sport that thrives on connections with players coming together both on and off the court. This collaboration between Heineken® 0.0 and LÕK is the perfect representation of that shared spirit. By creating a racket that blends performance with a playful twist, we’re making it easier for players to seamlessly celebrate on court connections and post-match moments through a fresh and fun contribution to the game.”

Jose Luis Sicre, CEO at LÕK, said: “Our newest collection, Generation Two, strengthens our presence as a specialist padel brand worldwide. By creating a Special Heineken® 0.0 edition of the LÕK Jungle (known for its anti-vibration bridge that also functions as a bottle opener), we are combining our expertise in performance design with Heineken® 0.0’s commitment to sociability, delivering a special edition racket that not only performs on court but also enhances the moments that matter most — the ones shared after the game.”
