Tommy Paul Debuts New Balance x Realtree Tennis Shoes

If there is anything Tommy Paul is known for beyond his unbelievable stamina and tenacity on the tennis court, it is his love of the great outdoors. As the tennis calendar shifts its focus to South Florida for the Miami Open, Paul is headlining an exciting New Balance campaign.

On Wednesday morning, Paul helped unveil the CT-Rally v2 "Outdoor Court" edition. The performance tennis shoes are part of a stylish collaboration with Realtree.

Outdoor Inspiration

Designed with his appreciation for nature and the outdoors, the tennis shoe blends on-court performance with a Realtree camo pattern that reflects Paul's off-the-court lifestyle, including time on his family's South Jersey farm and in the wetlands of South Florida.

"Some of my favorite hours are spent outside before sunrise," said Paul. "I grew up working around the farm, tending to animals, and fishing. Those simple moments inspire and ground me, and creating a shoe that allows me to share my connection to nature on the court is truly special."
