Serena Williams, Naomi Osaka, Novak Djokovic. The blueprint. The icons. The ultimate baddies. Our forever inspiration. And let’s be honest, who among us couldn’t use a little more hand-eye coordination this spring?
Enter ASICS x A.P.C., the collab we didn’t know we needed. The Japanese sportswear performance powerhouse and the Parisian connoisseurs of quiet luxury have teamed up for a tennis collection that makes one thing clear: you don’t have to be on the tour to dress like you are.
So here’s the serve: it’s tennis season, and thanks to this capsule, you’ll be hitting forehands and brunch in crisp whites, clean lines, and just enough seventies prep to feel like you stepped out of a Slim Aarons photo and into Centre Court.
Launching ahead of the European Tennis Tour, the 20-piece on-court collection blends ASICS’ industry-leading performance technology with A.P.C.’s pared-back silhouettes and attention to detail. The designs draw from ASICS’ Japanese heritage. There are wrap elements inspired by Kasane (the traditional art of layering), Enso motifs representing unity, and logos that reference Shibori, Japan’s iconic dyeing technique.
Standouts for the girlies include the Crew Dress (elegance), the LONGLINE Bra (function), and the 7IN Sprinter Shorts (freedom). For the guys: Crew Tops and 5IN Shorts that keep things clean, breathable, and ready for movement. Look out for the GEL-RESOLUTION™ X x A.P.C. and SOLUTION SPEED™ FF 3 x A.P.C., both reimagined in understated tonal palettes. Complete the look with wristbands, caps, socks, and a grip on your life.
But the power play doesn’t stop at the net. A.P.C.’s Creative Director Judith Touitou leads the 30-piece off-court collection, featuring everything from sleek layering pieces to the Tote Raquette made from Japanese organic denim. (Yes, your racket gets its own designer bag now.)
As ASICS’ Camille Eberhard puts it: “Our goal was to design apparel that helps players feel their best, ready to experience the powerful uplift of movement on the mind.” And Judith adds, “We wanted to focus on the beauty of the sportive gesture”, which, if you ask us, also applies to gracefully retrieving a dropped AirPod.
The full ASICS x A.P.C. Tennis Collection drops April 5, 2025 on asics.com, apcstore.com, and in select stores worldwide. This spring, go ahead and serve looks. Literally.
Xx,
Aa
