With a new Reigning Champ vs. Prince tennis collection, the Vancouver-based brand Reigning Champ continues to demonstrate its versatility and mastery of athleisure following a partnership for performance eyewear with District Vision.
Reigning Champ offers a warm and comprehensive selection of products for both seasoned tennis players and beginners by drawing on Prince’s expertise in tennis equipment that has been demonstrated in competition.
The 10-piece capsule features limited-edition apparel and hard goods for on- and off-court wear in Prince’s signature typeface and crisp green-white color scheme.
“Given Prince’s origins in New Jersey and a great history of players from the tri-state area, we elected to highlight the antithesis of country club tennis, celebrating the public court grinders at Washington Market Park in Tribeca,” Prince wrote in a press release. “We accompany Vicente Muñoz and James Powers, former D1 collegiate athletes, as they take to the court in select styles from the collection, captured under the bright lights against a quintessential New York City backdrop.”
Clothing arrive with green contrast stitching and tough finishes, and they include moisture-wicking tees, court-ready Solotex mesh polos and shorts, crewneck sweaters, and pullover hoodies. Tennis balls, two-tone jacquard graphic towels, bucket hats, visors, an original Graphite 108 racquet suitable for intermediate to advanced players, and other accessories complete the set.
Starting on June 28, the collection will be sold at prices ranging from $17 to $200 USD on the Reigning Champ website, in physical locations, and at a few select retailers around the world.
