Where do you buy your tennis clothes from?

I'm a club player due to play in a few league games.
Lots of ladies look great in a flippy skort and matching tank but I have big swimmers shoulders and middle aged legs. I'm also tall so most skirts look indecently short.

My old shorts & tee look scruffy and outdated but I've no idea what I should be looking for.

Any help much appreciated.

Thanks, they've got a great selection. Any ideas what would be a good starting outfit? A bit of me things I should forget my age and go with a skirt.

I haven't bought any for a while but I've used Direct Sports before (a mail order company, not to be confused with Sports Direct!). Badminton and tennis clothes are pretty similar so have a look at both.

I have chunky legs and arms but I just go with what feels comfortable. Usually a straight skort rather than a flippy one, if that makes sense, and a short sleeved T-shirt as I don't feel comfortable in a sleeveless top. And I make sure the T-shirt is a decent length - nothing worse than having to keep tugging it down mid-game to cover my wobbly mum tum!

Thanks Cornish. I reckon I'll follow suit. A plain straight skirt and sleeved tee sound practical and wearable.
I've been looking at Tennisnuts and Tennisdirect and there's masses of choice.

I bought a grey loose sports t shirt from M&S, sports bra underneath. I have a nine tennis polo, but I prefer this as it's a looser fit. Then I wear a straight ish skirt (it's actually a hockey one)
