Coco Gauff’s New Balance Collection Has Nothing To Do With Tennis

On the court, Coco Gauff’s wardrobe consists of the usual tennis garb: sleek tanks, skorts built for extreme movement, an athletic dress here or there; all garments meant to help the star athlete move faster than her opponent. But when it came time to develop her collection with New Balance, Gauff eschewed the pieces typical of her sport and opted instead for what any other current 17-year-old Gen Z’er might choose to wear: ’90s-inspired athleisure. The collaboration, out now, is full of fun separates that have nothing to do with tennis — and little to do with sports, even. “I loved working with the design team on the inspiration boards and seeing it fully come to life at the photo shoot was a dream come true,” Gauff said in a release for the collection release, which debuted Thursday online with both New Balance and Foot Locker. “I wanted to push it with the graphics and fit of the collection so I am pumped to finally see it in store and let fans get their hands on it.” Gauff in a cutout crop top, joggers and 327 sneakers from her New Balance collaboration.
