What’s the link between an Italian tennis coach with a knack for fun trickshots and the tennis-inspired menswear label, Palmes? The B.560 Palmes, one of Diadora’s all time favorites, crafted in the Manovia to play and have fun on courts all over the world.
Giovanni Fabrizio started playing tennis when he was a child. He quickly discovered the court as a place where he could fully express himself. But listening to his coach was a nightmare. Young Gio couldn’t have cared less about perfecting movements or winning matches.
Becoming one's best self
For him, tennis was an intuitive way to be himself and have fun. And it still is - he still moves on the court in the same playful and inspired way. Running up and down, trying fun shots and tricks to become the best version of himself. His father used to say: “Always remember one thing: that whoever has the most fun, wins.”
In Diadora we love an inspirational vision of the world and this is why we’ve crafted, in our Manovia, the perfect shoe that both young and old Giovanni would have loved to wear on the court to have fun: the B.560 Palmes.
One of Diadora’s all-time favourites, coming with
the touch of the Palmes Tennis Society. The B.560 is inspired by unforgettable performance models.
The Palmes version is a reinterpretation of those lines, crystallizing an idea of freedom and an inspirational and imaginative spirit.
