When we think of legacy in fashion, specific icons come to mind—one being the Ralph Lauren Polo Bear, an emblem of style and history. Now, Ascot Manor Sport, Inc. is building its lasting legacy in tennis fashion.


As the only small Black-owned brand to feature exclusive Black tennis characters on apparel, we are forging a new path that celebrates Black tennis's rich heritage while inspiring future generations.


Created by local Montclair artist Fard Long, the Headmistress & Head Master Heritage Collection brings Black tennis representation to the forefront of sportswear—something never seen on this scale. And this is just the beginning. Ascot Manor Sport will continue expanding this collection, working closely with Fard Long to develop more historic Black tennis characters that will live on as cultural icons.


Black pioneers like Althea Gibson, Arthur Ashe, Zina Garrison, and Serena Williams have shaped the tennis world—yet fashion has never fully reflected their impact.


At Ascot Manor Sport, we are changing that narrative. By wearing the Headmistress & Head Master heritage pieces, you are part of history.
