Brunch is getting in on the U.S. Open hype through a collaboration with Prince Tennis featuring cable-knit slippers and more courtside-ready products that will be available starting Thursday.
The footwear brand, which focuses on functional versions of hotel-style slippers, and the long-standing athletic brand teamed up to showcase the leisurely side of tennis, with an emphasis on the allure of laidback off-court moments.
The collection spotlights a classic tennis aesthetic, cable-knit sweaters: the chunky knit material is applied to Brunch’s Essential silhouette in green and blue-accented options emblazoned with the Prince logo.

The shoes can be accompanied by matching crew necks and tube socks. Offering unisex apparel sizes and footwear for adults and kids, the collection can be shopped online or in-person at Brunch’s 14 Amagansett Square location.
Prince creative director David Grutman in a statement, “Aligning Prince with such a luxe brand like Brunch that has disrupted the slipper market was a natural fit.”
For the campaign, Hallie Batchelder takes on the role of spectator as she models at a sun-bathed mansion. She personifies leisure as she relaxes with a Honey Deuce (the U.S. Open’s signature cocktail) and flips through a newspaper (The Brunch Times).

This wouldn’t be the first time Brunch has emphasized the allure of leisurely living through a collaboration. The brand, founded in 2020, teamed with the Beverly Hills Hotel for a retro-inspired collection released in April showcasing the signature green and pink hues of the hotel. Also going along with the hotel theme, Brunch launched a collection in February in partnership with the HBO series “The White Lotus,” which follows guests and employees of a fictional resort chain. Additional Brunch collaborators have included Eggo and Hirschleifers, among several others.
