17 chic tennis clothing brands

17 chic tennis clothing brands

The connection between fashion and tennis is legendary. From the early days of preppy-style racquet clubs to Andre Agassi’s iconic denim shorts and Serena Williams’ tutu dresses, there is a clear relationship between fashion and tennis that is only getting stronger as more and more brands enter the sport.

Last year, however, this connection became even stronger thanks to the popularity of the film Challenger, in which Zendaya went from being a tennis player to a coach, the Paris Olympics, and brands like Lacoste and Gucci adding tennis apparel to their lineup. All of this has pushed the boundaries of what tennis fashion can look like, from Zendaya wearing pumps with a tennis ball on the heel to Gucci’s collaboration with racquet maker Head.

For anyone looking for a stylish yet performance-focused tennis wardrobe, there’s never been such a comprehensive selection of brands delivering trend-setting pieces. From luxury fashion houses to the biggest sports labels, here are 17 tennis clothing brands to serve you on the court.

Fila

Czech tennis player Barbora Krecjikova won the 2024 Wimbledon trophy wearing a Fila jersey.
