Stringing Service for Racquets Also Available
"ellesse tennis club with windsor racket shop" offers a new communication platform centered around tennis, featuring apparel and goods that blend fashion and functionality from ellesse—the official tennis wear sponsor for the Japanese national teams—alongside highly specialized tennis gear selected by Windsor Racket Shop.
ellesse's "Classic" Line Makes Its Japan Debut
ellesse is fully launching "ellesse heritage line," a collection that reimagines archival designs with a focus on classic style for fashion, which has previously only been available in the UK. This marks its first full-scale offering in Japan.
The logo mark differs from the regular collection, adopting the logo design from the brand's founding year of 1959. For the heritage line only, the iconic half-ball design of ellesse is larger, and the typeface is also classic in its design.
Moving forward, the shop will also sell original products exclusively available here and imported items from overseas, serving as a hub for disseminating tennis culture. Plans include in-store promotions aligned with the four Grand Slam tournaments and user events such as tennis clinics hosted by ellesse's contracted professional players.
