Common questions

What brand is most similar to Sergio Tacchini?

Ellesse. Both are Italian sportswear labels founded within a decade of each other (1959 and 1966), both built on bright colour-blocked tennis and terrace styling, and both sell track tops, polos and tees in the same mid price range. Ellesse typically runs a little cheaper.

Who owns Sergio Tacchini now?

South Korean group F&F, which bought the brand in July 2022 for roughly $63 million after its 2007 bankruptcy. Current ranges cover tennis, pickleball and a Luxe line.

Cheaper alternatives to Sergio Tacchini?

Ellesse, Fila, Kappa, Umbro, Champion, Puma and Reebok all sit in the low-to-mid tier, below Tacchini's mid pricing. Kappa's 222 Banda tracksuits and Fila's terry sets are the closest cheap swaps for a Tacchini track top.

What about newer, fashion-led tennis brands?

Palmes, founded in Copenhagen in 2021, is the main one — tennis-rooted polos, pleated shorts and warm-up jackets cut relaxed for off-court wear, stocked at SSENSE and END. Lacoste covers the same territory from the heritage side.

Is Sergio Tacchini a tennis brand or a fashion brand?

Both. It was founded by an Italian tennis champion and still makes court and pickleball kit, but its track tops became a UK terrace-casual staple, and recent collaborations with A$AP Nast and Wavey Garms lean streetwear.
