Stack Athletics, the racquet-sports apparel brand across tennis, pickleball and padel, announced that professional tennis player Nick Kyrgios has joined the company as owner and creative director.
Said Kyrgios, “Stack represents everything I stand for—making noise and pushing boundaries. We’re building a brand with real personality. If it doesn’t make people feel something, I’m not interested.”
With this new role, the company stated in a media release that “Kyrgios will influence design direction, capsule storytelling, athlete collaborations, and the evolution of Stack’s signature aesthetic across tennis, pickleball, padel, and lifestyle apparel.”
Kyrgios is a headliner of two U.S. exhibitions — The Atlanta Cup on December 6, where he will face Wimbledon semifinalist Ben Shelton, and The Garden Cup at Madison Square Garden on December 8, where he will compete against American Olympic medalist Tommy Paul and also participate in a mixed doubles finale featuring four-time Grand Slam champion Naomi Osaka and reigning women’s World No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka. On December 28, Kyrgios will face Sabalenka in a “Battle of the Sexes” exhibition in Dubai.
“Nick is a massive addition to our team, bringing a style and attitude to help drive our company forward,” said Jeremy Nef, president of Stack Athletics. “He’s confident, a bit rebellious and willing to break the mold — just what our industry needs. His energy and individuality align with the culture we’re building.”
Kyrgios’ new role at Stack Athletics became effective on November 20.
