Gift Some Tennis
11 Presents for your Favorite Fan
The temperature is officially brick and outdoor play is going the way of the buffalo and late sunsets. We’re going to introduce some new pieces as we get into cold weather season, bubbling-up where we can. ‘Tis the season…
1|— Courtship: For the Love of Tennis
Everyone needs a pretty book on their coffee table. This one is especially so.
2|— Aerin Croc Leather Coasters
Ok, these aren’t obvious tennis, but they are 007 swanky and (sort of) look like tennis balls—if the PBs had a lounge, these puppies would be saving all the surfaces.
3|— Snoopy Tennis Trinket Tray
Snoops is always in style, bringing a smile.
Classic magazine covers, artwork and vintage photographs ready to be framed.
Timeless style and modern craftsmanship, inspired by legends. Pretty much a one-stop shop for all things cool tennis gear.
6|— Gucci x Head tennis racket
Celebrating Gucci’s longstanding relationship with the tennis world, the House launched a customized Speed MP racket in collaboration with HEAD. Djokovic and Sinner like its play and you can put all the pennies you no longer can use in the zippy pocket.
If one of you doesn’t get these for Paul for the holidays I will.
8|— Mini History Posters of Tennis Balls and Racquets
Came across these cute Etsy items while looking for vintage tennis gear, one of my favorite things to shop for. Have I mentioned most of the tennis clothes I own are vintage Lacoste bought on eBay?
9|— Brooks Brothers Tennis Cuff Links
An obvious one for my Christmas list this year. I’m confused how I don’t already own these given my nostalgic love for both tennis and Brooks Brothers. These will fit perfectly in the drawer right next to my vintage NYC subway token cuff links!
I’m not a big reader of self-help books but if there’s one I consistently recommend it’s this one. This classic easily draws parallels between life and tennis and even non-players will appreciate it. But if you’re someone who occasionally screams at themselves on the court like a lunatic—as I do—this book is for you.
11|— Tennis Ball Ice Cube Tray
If you like a big ice cube in your cocktail, then why not one that looks like a tennis ball? Feels like a no-brainer.
Since you both have the Gucci racket, I’ll put the Fila headband on my list
