OUR STORY
AVI was started by our namesake, Avi, who grew up playing Tennis and competing at the collegiate level. When Avi discovered Pickleball, he put down the racquet and picked up a paddle. While there were many different types of paddles to choose from, he realized he did not have the clothes he needed to hit the courts. No one was making apparel just for pickleball.
AVI, the brand, was founded to create apparel that is uniquely designed for the sport of pickleball and its modern players.
FOR PICKLEBALL
Serious sports require specialized gear. Pickleball is no exception.
AVI is the pioneering brand to introduce performance apparel tailored exclusively for pickleball and seized the opportunity to
enhance the sport.
Drawing inspiration from classic court apparel while incorporating cutting -edge technical materials and precision detailing, every AVI piece strikes a harmonious balance between tradition and modernity.
The outcome is a distinctive style meticulously crafted to elevate not only the performance but also the confidence and aesthetics of
pickleball players on the court.
