Tecnifibre Multifeel is a multifilament designed to deliver comfort, easy power, and a clean feel without the price or fragility of natural gut. I strung and play-tested Multifeel in a mix of 98–100 sq in frames to see how it stacks up for improving intermediates, all-courters, and anyone chasing relief from arm niggles.
Quick verdict
Tecnifibre Multifeel is a lively, arm-friendly multi that gives you effortless depth, a plush feel on contact, and reliable control for its class. Spin and directional accuracy won’t match a shaped poly, but for comfort, feel and pop it’s an excellent value—and a smart upgrade from basic synthetic gut.
What the numbers and lab tests say
Tecnifibre Multifeel – Based on independent test data:
| Attribute | Score (%) | Summary |
|---|---|---|
| Power | 85% | Easy depth from compact swings; great on defense and stretch hits. |
| Resilience Peak | 85% | Lively rebound without feeling springy or wild. |
| Elasticity | 70% | Good pocketing and dwell time; classic multi feel. |
| Spin | 70% | Respectable spin via pocketing; not a shaped-poly bite. |
| Control | 75% | Solid directional control for a multi; keep tension sensible. |
| Tension Holding | 70% | Steady, predictable mellowing—no sudden collapse. |
| Stability | 65% | Comfort-first; stringbed softens after ~8–10 hours. |
| Comfort | 90% | Standout arm-friendliness; budget alternative to gut. |
👉 In short: Tecnifibre Multifeel is about comfort, clean energy return and playable control, not max spin or extreme firmness.
How it plays (feel, spin, power, control)
- Feel & Comfort: Plush, muted-clean contact with great pocketing. Miss-hits are forgiving. If you’re coming from poly, you’ll notice the relief immediately.
- Power: Lively but predictable—you get depth without needing a huge cut. Great in cooler conditions or when the ball feels heavy.
- Control: For a multi, Multifeel is composed. Keep your mechanics tidy and it rewards you with linear depth; stringing a touch firmer (or adding a poly cross) sharpens trajectories.
- Spin: Not a spin monster, but the dwell time helps you shape the ball. Kick serves and defensive lobs were easy to lift.
Durability & tension maintenance
Multifeel is tougher than most entry-level multis, but it’s still a multi: frequent breakers should expect fray and notching by the 8–12 hour mark. Tension holds respectably—there’s a gradual, predictable mellowing rather than a sudden collapse. If you’re a big hitter, consider:
- hybrid mains with a soft, low-powered poly (very light gauge) to extend life while keeping comfort.
- moving to 1.30mm
See my guide here on choosing the right tennis string tension.
Who it suits
Best For:
- Intermediates seeking comfort + easy depth.
- Players managing arm/shoulder sensitivity.
- All-courters and doubles players who value feel on touch.
Not For:
- Heavy hitters who need maximum spin & firmness.
- Players who demand tour-level control at very low tensions.
Best suited racquets
Multifeel complements frames with moderate to firm flex or naturally lower power, adding depth and comfort without turning them into trampolines.
| Racquet | Why it Works | Recommended Tension |
|---|---|---|
| Wilson Clash 100 | Clash’s flexy frame + Multifeel’s pocketing = elite comfort and easy depth for improving players. | 23–25 kg (51–55 lbs) |
| Head Boom MP | Adds feel and touch to a lively, modern frame without turning it too powerful. | 23–25 kg (51–55 lbs) |
| Yonex Ezone 100 | Softens impact and improves control on a power-oriented beam; great for arm safety. | 24–26 kg (53–57 lbs) |
| Babolat Pure Drive | Tames the pop of the Pure Drive, boosting comfort and feel on volleys and returns. | 24–26 kg (53–57 lbs) |
| Wilson Ultra 100 | Gives a crisper, more connected response than a full poly while keeping power accessible. | 24–26 kg (53–57 lbs) |
| Head Speed MP | Enhances dwell time and touch for all-court play; pairs nicely in a multi/poly hybrid. | 23–25 kg (51–55 lbs) |
Comparable strings
Players considering Tecnifibre Multifeel might also look at:
- Wilson Sensation 1.30 — very soft and lively; less durable than Multifeel.
- Babolat Xcel 1.30 — plusher premium multi with excellent feel; pricier, slightly better comfort.
- Head Velocity MLT 1.25 — crisper, more controlled multi; a touch firmer than Multifeel.
- Tecnifibre Triax 1.28 — aramid-reinforced multi for extra control and longevity; firmer feel.
Practible recommendations
Tension (full bed): Start 24–26 kg (53–57 lb). Go higher if you want a flatter launch; lower for more pocketing/comfort.
Gauge: 1.25 mm is a great all-round choice. Consider 1.30 mm for more durability.
- Hybrid ideas:
- Multi mains / smooth poly cross (thin) to add a touch of control and durability.
- Poly mains / Multifeel cross to soften a full-poly setup for the arm.
Restringing frequency Every 10–15 hours of play (or when you notice fray + a clear drop in height/control).
👉 Pro Tip: In very open-pattern racquets like the Pure Aero 100, try a slight tension bump or with a firmer cross — such as Restring Sync or Tecnifibre Razor Code — to maintain control and keep launch angles in check as the string settles.
