Spring is one of my favorite seasons—a time of bright beginnings and the return of vibrant colors. To celebrate the season, we’re bringing this spirit to life in our latest Doubletake release: the Spring Spritz Collection. This new lineup of bags delivers Doubletake’s signature quality and distinctive design, now infused with bold, refreshing hues. Inspired by the zesty tones of citrus fruits and the lively spirit of spritz cocktails, this collection is a toast to the season’s energy and renewal.
As both a tennis and pickleball player, I design not just for my customers, but for myself. At Doubletake, our creative team shares a passion for racquet sports, giving us firsthand insight into what truly works. Our mission is simple: to craft stunning tennis and pickleball bags that combine ultra-organization, premium craftsmanship, beautiful fabrics, and a stylish courtside presence.
From day one, this vision has shaped our brand. Anyone with a Doubletake bag knows the difference—every detail is purposeful, with perfectly placed pockets for all essentials. No more digging through a “black hole” to find keys, phones, or accessories. Even our larger bags, the London Duffel and Parisii Tote, are thoughtfully designed with an array of compartments, plush pockets, and dedicated sleeves for water bottles and ball cans. As one customer put it, “Doubletake offers the perfect solution to the awkward shape of a tennis racquet.” Doubletake provides convenient spots for all your gear—so when it’s match time, you’re ready.
While we meticulously design the interiors of our bags for seamless organization, we’re just as intentional about their exterior. Every Doubletake bag is crafted to be both versatile and gorgeous. Our name reflects exactly that—our bags turn heads, making people do a double take when they see them. And since doubles play is a core part of both tennis and pickleball, the name couldn’t be more fitting.
I’m confident that our new color combinations will turn heads. My background is in market research, and I believe in taking the guesswork out of design. Before launching a new collection, we test our products and colorways with tennis and pickleball players, ensuring every choice resonates. I enjoy talking with our customers—listening to their feedback, understanding their preferences, and weaving their insights into our designs. One thing I’ve heard time and again is how much customers love the Dove White and Cashmere colorway—in fact, it’s one of our bestsellers. That got me thinking: how could we refresh Dove White with new shades that bring a bright, springtime feel to our latest collection?
Naturally, that meant diving deep into zippers—200 of them, to be exact. I love the punch that comes from contrasting zippers, especially when paired with our elegant, understated fabrics. We carefully evaluated an entire catalog of options, mixing and matching fabric samples to find the most striking combinations. Our creative team enjoyed experimenting, even bringing in a few friends for fresh opinions. It took time, but after countless iterations, we finalized a selection of samples to mock up and test. By blending data with intuition, the new collection came together beautifully.
When creating new colorways, we remain committed to sustainability. Our colors are produced using a solution-dyeing process, an eco-friendly alternative to traditional dyeing methods. This technique infuses color directly into fibers during production, rather than applying dye to finished materials. As a result, this process significantly reduces water consumption and minimizes wastewater, all while being more energy-efficient. Because the color transfer occurs faster and at lower temperatures, it also cuts down on emissions. Furthermore, Doubletake bags are designed with longevity in mind, ensuring they contribute to a more sustainable future. Our goal is to develop long-lasting products in rich, stunning hues, while keeping our environmental impact as low as possible—proving that great design and eco-friendly products can coexist.
I’m thrilled to introduce the Spring Spritz Collection that brings a fresh burst of color to our lineup. We’ve paired Dove White with Watermelon in both the Melbourne and the smaller Melbie backpacks, while Dove White and Lemon adds a bright, cheerful touch to the Melbourne. For an even bolder statement, the Citrus and Cerise Melbourne delivers a vibrant pop of color. Since tennis will always have a classic, preppy style influence, we’re also introducing a stunning Royal and Lemon combination—featuring crisp blue stripes with tennis-yellow accents—available in both the Melbourne backpack and Parisii tote.
In addition, we’re expanding the lineup of bags available in our top-selling Canvas and Poppy combination. This pretty shade duo is now offered in four styles—the Melbourne and Melbie backpacks, the London duffel and the Parisii tote. Whether you carry four tennis racquets, one pickleball paddle, or anywhere in between, you can sport this radiant style. For players looking for a smooth, luxurious feel, the exquisite Pearl V-leather texture from our Holiday 2024 Collection is now making a debut in our NYC “Pro” backpack as well as our petite and very chic Melbie backpack. Lastly, for effortless transitions to the office, café or daily activities, our Off Court Collection of crossbodies, clutches and pouches in graphite, white and pink hues complements an airy, springtime look.
If you are new to Doubletake, one of these bags will undoubtedly delight you! And for our loyal customers who already own a Doubletake bag—or two or three—this sun-kissed collection will refresh your look. Now, let’s go out and play!
