Forrest green is pretty much the colour most associated with Lacoste. It's the colour of the crocodile and the green L. 12 12 is often one the most sold
Find a tennis shop that has trial rackets available. My local shop lets me take whatever current model and try it out for a few days. I played the ezone 100 for the last year but now I’m back to a pure drive team with Wimbledon graphic. The EZone feels a little muted compared to the Pure. It’s comes down to a matter of personal feel. My pure drive is set up with Babolat VS 16 mains and Hyper G 17 crosses, 50, 46 lbs. respectively. This set up gives me “over the top” control and spin if needed. My buddies, and I, say it’s fairly easy power and a great all around racket, 318gms with an overgrip and dampener, and pretty headlight, 5 pts. If you have a strong arm then go for the standard Pure Drive 100. My .02¢ GL
In the 70s - 80s, Lacoste had a racket exactly the same as the Wilson T2000. There was already a similar damping system in the handle at that time. Nothing new for them 😄
Clothing style is nice. Price and raquet not so nice. They design is ok, but it and the specs not enough to even make me want to demo. But that’s just me.
How could this partnership between lacoste and technifibre be economically viable... wonder who would actually buy a lacoste racket these days. Especially knowing it is simply made by technifibre anyways. Who is the target customer for this racket who would buy this over a mainstream brand?
So its a Green Technifibre racquet?

between this and a head boom which do you think is better for playing with friends? and which is more comfortable for the arm and shoulder? Thanks!!
Dunlop CX and FX racquets also have rectangles at the center (tighter crosses)
What should I get,
Ezone 100 versus ultra , this racket, pure drive

Looks like the Tecnifibre tf x1 painted in Lacoste? The shock dampening is the same in the handle and the frame looks the same?

Rene Lacoste designed the T2000 and Wilson purchased the design from him
Did he say it's 23 inches long, i had to listen again.
He said 23” but I think he misspoke.
Is this a racket for pro tennis players?
Looks nice. Not paying £250 for it tho
Both coaches are behaving weirdly. Have they been smoking something 😳?
Crocodiles are green? 🐊

Sorry just looking at it I don't think I would like it. I don't like the color also and the head looks larger then most rackets
This racquet has no control. The spin pattern is ludicrously open.
