Slim Fit Tennis Apparel?

[TennisCanada1]

I've had it with Nike and Adidas not having an XS option, and the Nike tennis shirts being unnecessarily long.

I'm 5'8 and I'm a slim guy, and it appears that Nike and Adidas don't cater to smaller/slimmer guys.

Is there an apparel brand that sticks out as providing more suited clothing?

From watching Novak, it looks like Uniqlo is fairly slim, but they aren't in Canada until August, and who knows if they'll carry the tennis line here.

Sergio Tacchini and Lotto?

 

[airchallenge2]

Yeah, I was going to recommend Uniqlo Nole outfit that is available here in Hong Kong. I am not sure about Canada, though

How much do you weigh? You should look into the Adidas Men's Go-To Performance Short Sleeve Crew. They are 60poly/40cotton blends (I can't stand 100% poly because they smell bad), and they fit very "athletically." I'm 5'7" 160 lbs, wear a medium, and its pretty form fitting. Pretty comfortable general workout/tennis shirts. 100% poly might be a little more comfortable, but I find they fit too loose as you mentioned, or they smell really really bad.

Adidas does have slim tennis shirts.
Men`s Clima Chill Tennis Tee.

Are there particular styles that you're interested in? Both Nike and adidas offer size XS in tennis but may not have that size in every piece.

Like some others have mentioned, you could try Lotto or Sergio Tacchini. Also check out this page here. We have found the styles on this page to have a slim fit:

Oh thanks everyone and TW, I did'nt realize there was xs in Nike and Adidas, as I just realized it is only available in the U.S and not Canada. I will check out some of the listed shirts.

Boo Freaking Hoo try being 5ft 8 and 200lbs and try to buy clothing when XL is too big and L is not big enough.

Uh.... it's not my fault if I'm in good shape, but if I'm 5'8 and 200lbs, then there's definitely some weight to lose..

 

[Scribbles]

I find that Nike tennis attire with "Advantage" in the name tends to be a much slimmer cut. I feel like I'm swimming in the rest of their clothes, although I stay away from the Rafa and Roger labelled clothes. Adidas is always too big for me.

Conclusion: The Uniqlo apparel rocks

I'm in the same boat. Some L fit, some don't, and XL is often too big. Try Sergio Tacchini. I just got the Australian Open Break Polo in XXL and it fits perfectly, right in between L and XL. Maybe a little long, but not as long as Nike XL's. Seriously, give them a try. Shorts, I usually wear a L, and I got XL, and those are fine, too. If the description says slim fit, I would probably opt for XXL shorts.

 

[Dartagnan64]

I have the opposite problem in that finding a good fitting L or XL is really tough. Not every tennis player is a beanpole.

 

[Mac33]

I wear the cheapest lightweight T shirts from K-Mart I can find,usually no more than 10 dollars.

I like them to fit loose so I buy a size bigger.

And they last me for years!

Thanks for the update! Where do you get your Uniqlo apparel from though? Tennis Warehouse doesn't seem to sell it.

I went to NYC and basically bought their entire collection. Fantastic stuff. Fits well, great quality, there's towels in the short pockets, and fairly priced compared to competitors.

Under Armour has some compression wear. I'm probably going to get their Punisher t-shirt
