The Fila Original Tennis Gets Updated With Knit Construction

Following the 2016-2017 trend of knit sneakers, Fila has finally updated its Original Tennis silhouette for the ‘Knit Pack’.

The Fila Original Tennis has remained largely the same in design and construction since its introduction in the ’80s. Since, it has been an iconic staple in footwear culture. Now, in time for spring and summer, the silhouette has been revamped with a modern upper to create the Original Tennis 2.0 SW.

The Original Tennis 2.0 SW brings improvements to the Original Tennis including an inner-bootie system (seen on the Original Tennis 2.0) and a one-piece knit upper. Additionally, the new build should offer some weight savings.

The ‘Knit Pack’ offers three colorways — cream, white/navy, and black/white — with pull tabs on both the tongue and back counter as well as logo hits on the counter, quarter, tongue, and midsole. Each new build retails for $80 and will be available on Fila.com come May 19.
