I grew up playing tennis but haven’t hit the courts much in the last several years. That is, until recently. I just started taking lessons again, and it feels so great to be back on the court and slipping into tennis gear again. Sartorially, the timing couldn’t be better, because tennis clothing is having a moment in the fashion space, and there are so many cool pieces that tap into traditional sportswear in reimagined ways.

Heritage brands like Lacoste and Reebok have mastered tennis gear that has remained iconic over the years, while newer brands including Sporty & Rich and Nylora have just dropped collections that fashion insiders are snapping up right now. As I’m starting to build out an updated tennis wardrobe, I’ve been on the hunt for some new pieces to add to my closet. Ahead, take a look at the tennis items sitting in my cart.

Retro sneakers are the perfect shoes for a tennis look.

Wear this as a top for tennis. Then throw a blazer over it after for a full look.

Head to Splits59 for cool tennis gear.

I can't get over the Lacoste alligator on these socks.

Sporty & Rich teamed up with Prince for this cool set.

The baseball hat that keeps selling out online.

Wear this beyond the tennis court.

If you want to go the designer route, look no further than Gucci's tennis pieces.

Style this with tube socks and white sneakers.

Nineties-inspired color-blocking is having a moment.

Wear the sporty-sunglasses trend on the court.

Lacoste has been designing cool tennis pieces for nearly a century.

Tory Sport is another favorite brand for chic tennis gear.

Layer this sweater with your outfit for a post-tennis look.

I grew up wearing K-Swiss sneakers on the tennis courts, and they're just as cool now.

Snap up a piece from Venus Williams's line.

A matching set always makes it so easy to get dressed.

If you want to skip traditional white sneakers, this pair is a great alternative.

Add some color to your look.
