A life full of tennis
The story behind the tennis bag line

It has been a life full of tennis, to say the least!
Ever since the age of four, Tobias Hildebrand's life has in some way evolved around tennis.
Before turning professional at the age of 16 in 1992, Tobias was top two ranked in his age in Sweden and holds various Swedish and international junior titles. As a professional tennis player Tobias played on the tennis circuit for more than nine years, participating in
everything from money tournaments, club matches, ITF satellites, futures, ATP Challenges, ATP tournaments and Grand Slams. During his career Tobias has wins over several ATP top ten players and has two ATP Challengers doubles titles and many finals on his record.
It was during this time the idea of creating a “premium tennis bag” started. Back in the days, most of the tennis professionals that played the Stuttgart ATP tournament received a plain black duffel bag at a certain famous fashion brand factory located nearby, when visiting the fashion factory. This bag happened to be 70 cm long and was perfect for fitting tennis rackets,
which made all the players back in the 1990s and early 2000 use this bag for carrying their rackets to practice and travel with, and so did Tobias.
Tobias used this duffel bag for more then 15 years to every tennis event. After it was totally worn out and not being able to find anything he liked on the market, Tobias decided to design and manufacture his own premium tennis bag line.
