Posted on May 4, 2012 by Amy K

Win Uniforms for the Entire Team!

Is your tennis team all form and no fashion?  Do you feel that your uniforms don’t represent the knock-out team that you truly are?

Tail Activewear is going to dress one lucky team in the manner that they deserve.  We are giving away a full set of tennis team uniforms that are valued at $1,200.00.  And this isn’t the typical Internet give-away where you have to do a lot to receive a little.

Simply browse our selection of tennis uniforms and, as a group, select the collection that best represents your team spirit.  Then, post a photo of your team on our Facebook page and in the caption, tell us which collection is your favorite.  We’ll select one lucky team and dress them all in our active wear.

How easy could it get?

Tail activewear won’t just make you look good—it could even improve your game.  Our tennis uniforms are designed to move with you and prevent fabric creep.  You’ll also enjoy wind and rain protection, UV protection and moisture management.  When you don’t have to think about your clothes not moving with you, or avoiding the elements, your mind will stay on your game.  And that can only improve your team’s rankings.

Yes, it is possible to combine form and fashion, and that’s why our customers have been loyal to us for more than 38 years.  Think about it.  When you face off with the competition on the court, who has the mental advantage?  The team that wears good-enough tennis uniforms, or the one that sports high-end active wear that makes them look like a team with purpose?

So, what you waiting for?  Post your team photo today, and include your favorite tennis collection in the caption of the photo.  Who knows, you could be that team next time you walk onto the court.

Important Tips When Shopping for Women’s Tennis Clothes

Posted on March 8, 2012 by Amy K

The right clothes make a difference in any sport, even for casual players.  Try playing baseball in constrictive jeans and slippery sneakers or swimming in your cutoff shorts and you’ll agree. Each  type of sporting clothes is designed so that you have a full range of motion as you’re playing.  Good sporting clothes are designed with the most comfort and protection for your skin, which is why it’s good to consider women’s tennis clothing if you’re serious about the game.

Before you start shopping for the right clothes to wear on the court, read about two quick but very important tips.

Buy the Right Size

It may seem obvious, but many women buy the wrong sized clothes because they don’t like to think that they wear a size larger than they did last year, or because they like the look of something form-fitting.  But comfort and convenience on the tennis court must outweigh any self-conscious thoughts, so order the size of women’s tennis clothing that you know will fit comfortably.  Don’t worry about the number on the label, but instead worry about how something too tight will affect your game and possibly chafe your skin as you’re playing.

Buy Clothes Designed for Tennis

As all sporting clothes, tennis clothes are cut and tailored a certain way for a reason.  Most women’s tennis clothes are loose around the arms or sleeveless since you’ll need a full range of motion for your swing.  Shorts and skirts will also allow you easy movement around the court, and are more comfortable than slacks which may twist around your thighs as you run, which could cause a tripping hazard.

You have many options today when it comes to women’s tennis clothes, so there’s no reason to settle for anything that isn’t just right for your game.  If you’re concerned about showing too much leg, choose skirts with shorts underneath that are longer in length.  If you’re weight conscious, dark color blocking along the sides of the clothes will make you look slimmer so you don’t have to let self-consciousness about your figure keep you from being the best player you can on the court.

Three Tips to Save on Golf Clothes for Ladies

Posted on March 8, 2012 by Amy K

The game of golf can sometimes be expensive.  You might need to take lessons from a pro, you’ll have to pay green fees, cart rentals, and you simply can’t go without the right clothes and shoes.  When you’re ready to purchase golf clothes for ladies, think about these tips that will help you save on what you need.

Know What You Need

Many women have wasted money on clothes of all sorts simply because they didn’t know what they needed before they started shopping.  The more you golf, the more clothes you’ll need, but if you go out infrequently, you may only need a few outfits.  Be sure to get both pants and shorts as you’ll want to stay comfortable according to the weather.  And don’t forget that you’ll need golf shoes.

Buy Brand Names

While you’ll pay more for brand name apparel, there are some very good reasons for that.  For starters, brand name golf clothes for ladies will last longer.  This means that you’ll spend less on the clothes over time.  When you purchase cheaply made golf apparel for ladies, you’ll see it fall apart in the wash, fade and discolor, or not perform as you need it to when you’re concentrating on that birdie.  When that happens, you’ll have to replace your items more often, which in turn will result in your spending more for your clothes.

Buy Online

Most people understand that you can find better deals online, but not everyone knows why.  In a nutshell, websites are more affordable to operate than stores, and generally pass on those savings to their customers.  You’ll also find a wider selection when you shop online since physical stores need to make hard decisions as to what they keep on their limited amount of shelf space.  So when you’re shopping for golf apparel for ladies online, you’ll not only have the best selection at the best prices, but you’ll be able to easily compare prices between brands and items so you can choose the product that gives you the best value for your money.

Don’t skimp on the clothes you need for golfing as they can make a difference in the success and enjoyment of your game.  But be sure to follow the tips listed above so that you’ll get the best clothes at the right price.
