…yet. Every once in a while, I come across a tennis product that I have to have. Most recently I was introduced to one of the most impressive t-shirts I have ever seen, coming from Tennisfiends.com.
I know, you’re thinking it’s just another tennis t-shirt, but it’s not just a tennis t-shirt, it is a shirt that speaks to the tennis player. Not only is the material really comfortable, the logo is pure genius. The lightweight t-shirt feels like one of those cotton shirts that you’ve had for 10+ years and has been washed a bazillion times, yeah it’s that comfortable and it fits perfectly.
To me, the design is what makes the shirt, the almost neanderthal-like character defines the fiend of tennis. The thought that comes to mind when I look at this shirt is “I know nothing else other than tennis.” It’s just that, mindless, just tennis, a fiend.
I asked the owner of Tennisfiends.com what inspired the t-shirt and design:
“I went to my local court up here in Northern California and saw all the people who are out there every day like clockwork. I’ve found the same thing in other cities where I’ve lived and played too, over the years. It’s awesome and inspiring, so I made a shirt about it. The logo just made sense.”
It does make sense, it’s primal, it’s for the die-hards out there that play until their callused hands can no longer grip the tennis racquet. It’s for the people who appreciate the beauty and power of tennis. Best of all, you can wear it wherever, on court, off court, it doesn’t matter it’s the coolest tennis shirt.
The shirt comes in two styles, coffee and grey, and I’ve been told other designs are in the works, I can’t wait to see what Tennisfiends.com comes up with next!
