A recent photo of the world No.3 on the tennis court with a young fan surfaced online, revealing her new sage green attire—the New Balance Summer Collared Tank and the New Balance Summer Novelty Tournament Skirt. These pieces blend a classic sleeveless top and pleated skirt silhouette with modern performance features, contemporary colors, and design updates.
Coco’s fans have been quick to express their excitement and admiration for her new kit. As Tennis Up to Date pointed out, one fan took to X to express gratitude for Coco’s partnership with the Boston-based brand, “Everyday I’m grateful that New Balance outbid Nike for her when she was a kid.”
Namely, Coco signed her first contract with New Balance at just 14 years old, and at 18, she extended the deal long term. A standout in their collaboration is Coco’s signature tennis shoe, the CG1, lauded for its stability and unique basketball-inspired silhouette. Since its launch in 2022, the unisex model has gained significant popularity. The latest colorway is the ‘Unity of Sport.’
Another fan praised Coco’s fashion sense, declaring, “Best kits in WTA award goes to her.” Indeed, the American has become known for her bold and stylish outfit choices, which have set her apart from her peers.
“I couldn’t ask for a more committed team that is forward-thinking in their approach and match my love for the game with their passion for quality and creativity,” Gauff once commented on her apparel partnership. “New Balance has supported me since my junior tennis years and has been by my side for the biggest moments of my career. The team feels like family.”
The New Balance Summer Collared Tank is a modern twist on the classic sleeveless polo, offering NB DRY wicking technology to keep Coco cool and comfortable during the heat of competition. The tank features a contrast open placket and collar, a scalloped bottom hem, and contrast binding on the armholes, sides, and hemline, giving it a fresh and contemporary look. The tank is finished with the NB logo at the center chest.
Paired with the tank is the New Balance Summer Novelty Tournament Skirt, a pleated woven skirt that combines style and functionality. The skirt features a contrast elastic waist with stripe detail, ensuring a comfortable and secure fit. It also comes with an integrated shortie with side pockets, allowing Coco to carry essentials such as tennis balls without sacrificing mobility. The skirt is made with NB Dry moisture-wicking performance fabric, keeping Coco dry and comfortable throughout her matches. The skirt is finished with a heat transfer New Balance logo on the right leg of the shortie, adding a subtle yet stylish touch to the overall look.
As Coco prepares to debut her new outfit on the Hologic WTA Tour, fans can’t wait to see her grace the court in style once again. Ever since she made her WTA debut at the 2019 Miami Open, the 20-year-old has won seven singles titles and eight doubles titles. She currently stands at her career-high singles ranking of No.3, while her best ranking in doubles was No.1.
