Diadora or K-Swiss

[ayyhwang]

I got offered footwear and apparel sponsorship from Diadora and K-swiss recently, and I don't know which one to take. I'm already sponsored by Volkl for racquet equipment, so I think I'm leaning toward Diadora because their colors maatch Volkl colors. But based on the quality of their shoes and apparel, which do you think is better: K-Swiss or Diadora?

dude diadora all the way its much better a lot pro's use it like ljubicic and calleri so it must be good. kswiss doesn't have anyone its just not a tennis brand. also diadora has super cool shoes.

diadora, how did you get the deal

I was talkin on the phone with my Volkl rep a couple nights ago, asked him if Volkl had any apparel I could get, he said "no but i know the diadora and k-swiss rep in your area". he gave me their phone numbers, i called them and told them the name of my volkl rep. they got my email and number and we chatted about ranking and stuff. they said i could get sponsored blah blah blah.

Sorry, young lady, I thought you were a male junior player. Just goes to show you, you never know on the internet.

On the quality front, I think they are both good. On clothing (which is clearly secondary), I'd go Diadora. For footwear, it would be smart to try the stuff on at a local pro shop, then decide for the brand that generally fits your foot the best.

My 2 cents, Miss ayyhwang.

Wow you're hilarious. No I am not a girl.. you must be pretty stupid

[NebAce1]

Yea Diadora sounds pretty good, so I'd go ahead and try that.

[BigBUBBA]

Diadora. FOR SURE!

[JMS]

Diadora all the way

[Topspinjim]

yea K-Swiss isn't very well known as a tennis brand. Diadora would be the obvious choice. Are these full sponerships?

[babolat15]

can you give us all the hookup. as in the persons email

[ayyhwang]

No K-swiss and Diadora both don't offer full sponsorships, only discounted packages which I found out yesterday. You can call Diadora about it at 1-253-520-8868 or K-Swiss at 1-800-938-8000 and ask about the preferred player packages.
