Our Mission

The Future of Tennis Culture

WACE started with one goal — to create something tennis players could truly call their own.

A brand that merges performance with identity, built for those who live and breathe the sport.

How It Started

Hey, I’m John! A lifelong tennis player, dreamer, and entrepreneur who’s spent years in e-commerce.

WACE has been a dream of mine for years, something that’s lived in my head since the days I was playing on cracked public courts, wishing there were products that actually felt like us.

After years in e-commerce, I finally decided to build a brand for the tennis community — for the players who live and breathe this sport. WACE isn’t just a product; it’s the result of countless late nights, sketches, prototypes, and a vision that never left me.

My younger self would’ve gone crazy over this idea... And honestly, I still do.

It’s a product for everyone: no age, no gender, no limits. It’s personal, adaptable, and uniquely yours.

If you’re like me and your backhand doesn’t always cooperate… at least now, we can still look good doing it.

I hope you love the innovation and thought behind WACE as much as I’ve loved bringing it to life.

What Makes WACE Different

WACE is the first drinkware created exclusively for tennis players — shaped like a 3-ball tennis can, engineered for pro-level performance, and designed to evolve with your game.

Each WACE:


  • Matches your racquet: Frame, strings, and overgrip color.

  • Evolves with your setup: Interchangeable parts keep your WACE in sync as your gear changes.

  • Performs under pressure: Double-wall insulation, pro-grade stainless steel, and sweat-proof finish.

  • Represents more than hydration: It’s identity, passion, and culture in one design.

What’s Next?

We’re Just Getting Started

This is only the beginning.

Future drops will feature more racquet-inspired designs, customizable lids and bases, and accessories to match your on-court style.

Our goal is simple — to build a brand that grows with the sport and with the players who love it.
