Best Tennis Skirts of 2026

If you're looking for a skirt that's flowy and has just a hint of "twirl" factor, you should check out flouncy skirts. When we talk about flouncy skirts we mean skirts that drape lightly and flow gently at the hem. Their relatively simple silhouette makes them easy to pair with a variety of tops.

Our Pick: Nike Advantage Ace Skirt

Our current favorite is the Nike Advantage Ace Skirt. This skirt is a winner for us because of how it fits. The waistband sits flush to your waist and has a premium feel, and the inner shortie is very comfortable plus has drop-in pockets. The fabric also has great stretch.

Honorable Mention: adidas Club Skirt

There's something quintessentially tennis about a pleated skirt, and as such, there's a plethora of pleat styles to choose from. What we're looking for are pleats that hold their shape and an overall comfortable fit and feel.

Our Pick: Wilson Midtown Skirt

The Wilson Midtown Skirt is a perfect example of how to keep it classic yet modernize it at the same time. In our how to choose a tennis skirt article, we explain that woven materials are best for pleated skirts because they retain their pleats well, and this Wilson skirt gets that right. What helps set this Midtown Skirt apart is its high rise ribbed waistband. It's comfortable and flattering. Plus it's the perfect rise to match with today's midi tops and crops. There's even a version with full-length leggings for those colder days.

Honorable Mention: adidas Club Pleat Skirt

As part of adidas' Club line, this Club Pleat Skirt gets updated every couple of years. The last update was in 2025, so if you've picked up one of these already, get ready for new colors in 2026! We loved the updates adidas made to the waistband and also think this skirt is a great value!

Our Pick: Lucky in Love Baseline Skirt

Our current fav that is ticking all the boxes in this category is the Lucky in Love Baseline Skirt. This skirt has a soft ribbed waistband that sits comfortably, and the stretchy inner tight is also a ribbed fabric that makes this skirt feel so comfy you might want to wear it all day! The drop-in pockets on the inner tight are also a nice touch.

Honorable Mention: Sofibella UV Solid Skirt

The Sofibella UV Solid Skirt is a staff favorite because it comes two lengths, is available in an array of colors and has a pleated detail in the back. The front of the skirt is a clean, sporty look, while the pleat in the back offers a bit of a more forgiving fit and feel.

Although most tennis skirts fall somewhere in the 12- to 14-inch range, some players will be looking for something longer. To find the longest skirts at Tennis Warehouse, be sure to filter skirts by length and select longer than 15 inches.

Our Pick: InPhorm Classic Skirt 15.5"

We've picked the InPhorm Classic Skirt in the 15.5-inch length (measured in a size small) as our favorite long skirt. The mesh trim at the hem and asymmetrical flounce are flattering. You can get this skirt in all the core colors for tennis: black, white or midnight navy.

Honorable Mention: Travis Mathew

Travis Mathew is relatively new to making women's clothing, getting its start in the men's market. We like the versatility of Travis Mathew's skirts. They're a bit longer so easy to wear on and off the court, and a lot of the styles also have pockets.

Ruffle skirts deliver a fun factor to a sporty tennis skirt. These skirts offer a bit more design and and can incorporate more colors or textures into your look since designers will sometimes use additional colors, prints, fabric types, and even mesh, in the layers.

Our Pick: The Bubble Ruffle Skirt

This boutique brand is growing a loyal following for its fun prints and details on their skirts. A particularly favorite silhouette is their Ruffle Skirt. Each season, there are new prints to choose from, and details like the smocked waistband and side pockets should not be overlooked.

Honorable Mention: Lucky in Love Scallop Skirt

Lucky in Love knows how to keep tennis skirts fun! We've picked their core scallop skirt as our favorite tiered or layered skirt. The essential colors have been in the line for years and are perennial favorites, but the look does come in a variety of seasonal prints. You can also get them with built-in capri-length tights. What helps to set this skirt apart is that there is mesh underneath the layers to help keep the skirt feeling lightweight despite all the layers.

Our Pick: ON'RE Tennis Pleat Skirt

The most common way players store extra balls is to tuck them under the hem of the inner tight of a skirt. Other skirts might have ball pockets on the tight, but for players who would rather not have the ball against their leg, ON'RE offers quick, easy storage in the waistband. The ball pockets at the back waist can store up to four tennis balls.
