In a move that merges sartorial sophistication with athletic precision, ASICS and French fashion house A.P.C. have teamed up to launch a tennis collection that speaks to both performance and understated elegance. Timed to align with the European tennis circuit, the collaboration marks ASICS’ first head-to-toe offering in the tennis category — a union that fuses heritage design with industry-leading innovation.
The ASICS x A.P.C. Tennis Collection is delivered in two parts: an on-court range engineered for elite performance, and an off-court edit tailored for effortless movement and refined everyday style. Designed in a minimalist palette of crisp white and blue, the 70s-inspired collection reflects A.P.C.’s quietly confident aesthetic while maintaining ASICS’ performance DNA.
The on-court collection spans 20 pieces, including thoughtfully tailored silhouettes for both men and women. Standouts for women include the sleeveless crew tops, longline bras, and 2-in-1 shorts, while men can choose from classic crew tees and 5-inch performance shorts. Shared across both lines are subtle references to ASICS’ Japanese heritage: KASANE, the art of layering, is mirrored in wrap-style detailing, while traditional SHIBORI tie-dye techniques subtly influence the logo’s reimagined form.
Complementing the apparel is a line of high-performance footwear, featuring special editions of the GEL-RESOLUTION™ X and SOLUTION SPEED™ FF 3 sneakers—technical shoes favored by top players for their agility and stability. Accessories like wristbands, crew socks, and tennis caps round out the court-ready uniform with intention and polish.
Off the court, the collaboration extends into a 30-piece lifestyle collection helmed by A.P.C.’s Creative Director, Judith Touitou. This part of the capsule brings the rhythm of tennis into daily life through relaxed tailoring, gradient-print nylon pieces, and the GEL-KAYANO™ 14 in a fresh, fashion-forward iteration. Among the highlights is the Tote Raquette, a denim carryall with a dedicated racket pocket—functional, but with a touch of Parisian charm.
Athletes including Belinda Bencic, Lorenzo Musetti, Alex de Minaur, and Jasmine Paolini are among those debuting the collection during this year’s European tournaments, bridging professional sport with contemporary fashion on the world stage.
Speaking on the collaboration, Camille Eberhard, Director of Apparel at ASICS, said: “We aimed to design apparel that helps players feel their best, blending timeless aesthetics with our industry-leading performance technology. The off-court range, designed by A.P.C., extends this philosophy beyond the game.”
For Touitou, it was about honoring the movement. “We wanted to focus on the beauty of the sportive gesture, and translate that spirit into everyday style,” she notes.
From game day to city streets, the ASICS x A.P.C. collection is a seamless blend of form and function—minimalist, modern, and made to move.
