Palmes is part of the world of tennis, but not in the way you’d expect. Founded in Copenhagen by Nikolaj Hansson after a game in the Pyrenees, the brand responds to a culture that can feel closed off — where access to courts often sits behind long waiting lists and private memberships. Palmes opens that up, acting as a bridge into the sport and reshaping how it’s seen. It starts with tradition, then loosens it up, making space for something more personal, accessible and welcoming.
Rooted in court classics but shaped by a wider cultural lens, collections move easily between sport and everyday life. You’ll see it in the silhouettes and in the details, from sharp graphics to subtle embroidery, all grounded in responsible fabric choices. There’s also a trace of skate influence running through, giving familiar tennis pieces a more individual, less restricted feel.
Named after jeu de paume, an early form of tennis played by hand, Palmes looks both backwards and forwards at once. It respects the sport’s history, but never feels bound by it, offering a more open, modern take that fits into real wardrobes. Shop Palmes at END. today.
