Palmes

Palmes is an elevated sportswear brand with roots in tennis culture. The brand was founded in 2021 with its base in Copenhagen, Denmark. Created from a desire of bringing a progressive, forward-thinking perspective to tennis as a sport and culture, Palmes creates items to wear in daily life alongside cross-over pieces that can be worn on-court.

For Fall/Winter 2026, Palmes turns to vintage sportswear as its reference point. Ringer tees in tactile cotton-linen blends, a knitted rugby shirt in rich brown, and a timeless oxford in organic cotton bring texture and depth to the season, while a pre-washed hooded sweatshirt and garment-dyed twill trousers round out a wardrobe built for movement between the court and the everyday.

Through its universe that is steeped in progressive storytelling, Palmes seeks to expand the cultural relevance of tennis and in turn, break down the existing barriers-of-entry to give more people the chance to engage with the sport, allowing for them to experience the sensation of falling in love with the sport that Palmes arose from.

The name of Palmes is derived from jeu de paume, a sport that was played in 15th-century France at a time where the racquet had yet to be invented and participants simply used the palm of their hands for hitting the ball.
