Where the Court Meets the Coastline

inPhorm Reimagines What Sustainable Tennis Style Looks Like

There’s a particular kind of light that hits Long Island’s clubs in late summer — golden, unhurried, the kind that turns a warm-up rally into a photograph. It’s the light inPhorm designs for.

Founded by Creative Director Saad Hajidin, inPhorm has spent years arguing a simple but stubborn point: that performance wear and responsible production aren’t opposing forces — they’re the same design problem, solved well. “There was a real gap,” Hajidin says. “Clothing that looked as good as it played, and was made in a way you didn’t have to look away from.”

She’s mid-pause between sets, racket still raised, net and open water behind her — the kind of shot that makes the case for the collection before a single word does.

Built for the Rally, Designed for the Room After

The proof is in the details most players never think about until they notice them: quick-dry recycled-poly blends with true four-way stretch, UPF 50+ woven in rather than sprayed on. The pleated silhouette — soft, fluid, unmistakably tennis-club — is the Elle Dress – Sweet sophistication meets performance best: it moves like nothing and photographs like everything.

It’s clothing built for a very specific kind of day: a match at 9, lunch at the club at noon, a walk along the water after. Not three outfits — one.

And this is the part of the day the clothes are really for — courtside, iced tea in hand, laughing under the pergola while the match behind you finishes without you. Three friends, three colorways, one conversation that’s been going for an hour.

A Brand That Practices What It Preaches

Behind the fabric is a manufacturing standard inPhorm doesn’t treat as a footnote — solar-powered facilities, wastewater recycling, fair wage and human rights auditing built into every partner relationship. And behind the brand itself: a team that’s 98% women. “Empowering women isn’t a marketing line for us,” Hajidin says. “It’s who makes the decisions.”

The Takeaway

inPhorm’s bet is that the modern player doesn’t want to choose between how something performs, how it looks, and how it was made. This season’s collection is the answer to all three at once — from baseline to clubroom, from the net to the ocean view behind it.
