Lacoste has been influencing tennis fashion since René Lacoste first introduced the polo shirt on the tennis court in 1933. His goal to create sportswear with style helped define the perception of tennis today. Whether it's the elegance and charm of Wimbledon or the sophistication of the Australian Open, the style worn by today's tennis stars on the court is marked by Rene's polo shirt.
Lacoste has collaborated with many sporting legends and is the latest in a line to wear a crocodile on the pitch tennis player Daniil Medvedev, with which Lacoste returns to the tennis courts with footwear. Inspired by the innovation and style of their founder, they designed tennis shoes AG-LT21 Ultra. And the first player to wear them on court will be Daniil Medvedev, the current number two player in the ATP rankings.

His style of play is said to drive his opponents crazy. Football legend Neymar was once said to play as if someone were managing him in a FIFA game. And the same can be said for Medvedev. It has the right dosage
speed, agility and technical flair. And it is these ingredients that form the foundation for a new one
AG-LT21 Ultra. When playing tennis, the direction of the step changes quickly, so the sneaker must be very agile and stable. To give Medvedev this stability on the court, he has a sneaker
padded ankle collar, double lacing system and PEBAX support frame, which takes care of the inner support of the foot. The inner sole is filled with DOW foam for better cushioning and rebound, while the outer sole is equipped with Goodyear rubber and KURIM support in the forefoot. Extremely light
AG-LT21 Ultra fits perfectly with Medvedev's game based on
explosiveness and speed.

Medvedev is becoming a bigger and bigger star. In addition to winning Grand Slam titles, his goal is also to create his own line of products in which he will leave his mark through the choice of materials, colors and cuts.
AG-LT21 Ultra represents the future of Lacoste sportswear and after working with such a promising star as Daniil Medvedev, that future looks very bright.
