Size Guide
tennis fit.
Tennis apparel follows standard activewear sizing. Grip size is the most consequential number on a racket — the right grip prevents elbow injuries. Court shoes typically run true-to-size; if you're between, size up by half.
Apparel (men)
| Size | Chest (in) | Waist (in) |
|---|---|---|
| S | 35–37 | 29–31 |
| M | 38–40 | 32–34 |
| L | 41–43 | 35–37 |
| XL | 44–46 | 38–40 |
| XXL | 47–49 | 41–43 |
Apparel (women)
| Size | Bust (in) | Waist (in) | Hip (in) |
|---|---|---|---|
| XS | 32–33 | 24–25 | 34–35 |
| S | 34–35 | 26–27 | 36–37 |
| M | 36–37 | 28–29 | 38–39 |
| L | 38–40 | 30–32 | 40–42 |
| XL | 41–43 | 33–35 | 43–45 |
Racket grip size
Measure from the bottom horizontal crease of your palm to the tip of your ring finger. That length in inches is your grip.
| Grip size | Palm-to-ring-finger |
|---|---|
| 4 1/8" | 4 1/8 in (junior / very small adult) |
| 4 1/4" | 4 1/4 in (small adult) |
| 4 3/8" | 4 3/8 in (most women / smaller men) |
| 4 1/2" | 4 1/2 in (most men) |
| 4 5/8" | 4 5/8 in (large hands) |
Fit notes
- Between grip sizes? Go down — overgrip wraps add roughly 1/16" each. Going up is harder to undo.
- Court shoes are categorized by surface: hard-court (most durable outsole), clay (herringbone tread, no toe drag panel), grass (pimple/nub outsole). Don't sub one for another — the wrong shoe ruins the court and shreds the upper.
- String tension is taste, not size. Beginners: 50–55 lbs. Power players: lower (45–50). Control players: higher (55–60).
