Copenhagen’s Les Deux has joined forces with Prince on a 17-piece limited collection that turns court heritage into something you could actually wear off it. Here’s what to know, and what to buy before it’s gone.
This isn’t just another tennis capsule.
That’s worth saying upfront, because menswear has been flooded with courtside drops for two years now. Most of them stop at a polo and a pleated skirt. The Les Deux x Prince collection does something more interesting, and that’s why it deserves attention.
This collection is made for the stands, not the scoreboard.
Why This Collaboration Actually Matters
Both brands sit in the overlap between sport and style, and that’s what makes this partnership work.
Prince spent the 199s shaping the visual language of tennis. Bold colors. Club graphics. Court line motifs that still read instantly, even to people who never watched a match. Prince was the racquet of choice for Andre Agassi during his most iconic era, and the brand’s aesthetic became inseparable from the player’s legendary off-court fashion. The brand’s link to the ’90s tennis boom gives this collaboration real archival authority.
Les Deux has spent fifteen years building an aesthetic that blends workwear, sportswear, and preppy codes in one wardrobe.
Put them together and you get something neither could have made alone.
Mathias H. Jensen, Creative Director at Les Deux, summed it up simply: “The match happens on the court, but the culture is built in the stands.” That one line tells you everything about the collection’s point of view.
This is sport as a social code, not a uniform.
The 8 Best Pieces From Les Deux x Prince
1. Shiny Track Jacket in Pineneedle Green
The hero piece. Glossy color-shift fabric, contrast piping, two-way zipper, and dual branding on the chest. The strongest ’90s court reference in the entire drop and the image that will sell the collection.
2. Shiny Shorts in Pineneedle Green
The other half of the track set. Worth noting because the matching look makes this feel like a proper drop rather than a loose capsule.
3. Lace Knitted Cardigan in Dark Navy
The most elevated and unexpected piece in the collection. It pulls the drop away from sportswear cliché into something more editorial. Likely to sell out first.
4. Intarsia Knitted Polo in Light Ivory
A quiet hero. It fits into the elevated knitwear conversation that menswear is paying close attention to right now.
5. Stripe Jacquard Polo in Pineneedle Green
The strongest of the polos. The green draws the eye and ties back into the hero track set.
6. Seersucker Check Shirt in Ivory
The most wearable warm-weather piece. Made from 98% cotton and 2% elastane with a button-down collar and double button cuffs. It brings preppy summer credibility and works best outside the collaboration context.
7. Washed Denim Shorts in Aubergine Purple
The only denim in the drop. The aubergine wash is unusual enough to stand out, and the loose fit is on trend.
8. Dad Cap in Pineneedle Green
The entry-level price point. Caps always move fast on collaborations, and the green ties it to the hero pieces.
Materials and Silhouettes
Fabrics move between glossy technical materials, textured cottons, striped knits, and washed graphics. Silhouettes are relaxed. Track pieces, polos, and denim run loose. T-shirts, the cardigan, and shirting sit at a regular fit.
Why Tennis Fashion Hits Different Right Now
Heritage racquet branding is having its biggest moment in 20 years.
Terrycloth. Retro track sets. Intarsia knits. Elevated preppy layers. Every menswear brand worth following is mining the ’90s for visual cues, and Prince is one of the few labels with genuine archival authority from that era.
What separates this collection from the rest is the lifestyle finish.
Most tennis collaborations feel like fancy costume. This one feels like a wardrobe. The pieces work on their own, away from the court, away from the cultural reference. That’s the harder thing to pull off, and it’s why this drop will move quickly.
Where to Buy, and What Will Go First
The full Les Deux x Prince collection is available now at lesdeux.us and through select retailers like Care of Carl. Limited quantities. No restocks expected.
If you’re buying one piece, make it either the lace knitted cardigan or the shiny track jacket. Both are the kind of items that define a collaboration, and both will be the first to go.
Move quickly. This isn’t a drop that will sit around.
