Late Bloomers Collection
From elite, to the street 💐
May 27, 2025
With the new Late Bloomers collection, DECATHLON revisits its tennis and golf archives in an urban, modern and accessible style. Everyone is invited to play... and above all, to rewrite the rules.
Tennis and Golfcore have infiltrated our wardrobes, and fashion catwalks are merging with those of the sport. Decathlon reinvents its archives pieces, once designed for its elitist sports, and propels them into the street. An original capsule combining sporting heritage and new sportswear styles for everyday wear.
Why “Late Bloomers”? For these late-blooming talents, who embrace their own tempo. Standards are redefined, so that we can get into the game and enjoy it - without frills, and with style. The watchword of the new wardrobe? Fun. Whatever the level, wherever the venue.
A soft nostalgia for the first exchanges of balls in the heart of abandoned tennis courts where nature has taken over, where stray balls and dandelions mingle carefree. Talent can blossom late, and the court may not be flamboyant; it's summer, the evenings stretch out, simple pleasure takes over and sport melts into pure fun.
Boldly retro, the Late Bloomers collection features 18 pieces. Shades of green, blue, yellow, cream and earth match the season and nature, while wide, modern cuts offer maximum comfort. From sleeveless V-neck sweaters in ribbed knitwear to waffle shorts, from romper suits to loose polo shirts, from the iconic pleated skirt to suede sneakers, the look is casual but elegant, nostalgic but contemporary, sought-after but always popular.
By playing the urban adventure card, golf and tennis become more inclusive and accessible. And their fans are blooming like wild flowers.
