Sergio Tacchini Clothing Information and Stockists
Official website: www.sergiotacchini.com Country of Origin: Florence, Italy Founder: Sergio Tacchini Established: Early 1966 History:
Sergio Tacchini has been an Italian Davis Cup Champion
from 1959 to 1966, the year he set up a company to produce and distribute
sports apparel and footwear. He started out by providing clothing for his
former team mates and put colour onto tennis track suits and strips for the
first time.
In the seventies, the first coloured tennis-wear collection makes its appearance at Wimbledon when an unforgettable Jimmy Conors wins the tournament. In 1978 comes great intuition: an 8-year contract with the rising star of world tennis John McEnroe. In the eighties the sponsorship permits the brand to gain placing on the international market: Ille Nastase, Vitas Gerulatis, Mats Wilander, Pat Cash, Pete Sampras and Gabriela Sabatini are just some of the testimonials who have contributed to taking Sergio Tacchini brand to the top of the tennis world. Sergio Tacchini also dressed the best in the business in many other areas of the sports world. Another major scene of the sports world was the terraces of many football clubs in the eighties, soccer casuals from every corner of England and Scotland would don their Sergio Tacchini sportswear on a Saturday afternoon for the match in awe, to out-dress rival supporters. Away from the world of sports many cool icons including various bands starting and following retro sportswear fashions have regularly been seen swaggering around in the famous Sergio Tacchini label.
