Here’s How You Can Buy the Dress Alex Eala Will Wear to the Upcoming US Open

The countdown to the 2026 US Open is on.

The fourth and final Grand Slam of the year will take place from August 30 to September 13, 2026, at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center in New York City. Our very own Alex Eala is set to compete in the singles main draw, where she will face 14th seed Clara Tauson of Denmark on the Grandstand Court. The Filipina tennis star will also team up with Canada’s Felix Auger-Aliassime for the mixed doubles championship.

Ahead of the tournament, Nike US debuted the tennis kit Alex will wear at the US Open. Priced at $140, or approximately P8,600, the racer-cut dress is currently available in several sizes through the brand’s official webstore.

On its website, Nike describes the royal blue frock as a basketball-inspired piece crafted from recycled materials. Large-hole mesh panels, inspired by basketball nets, are placed along the back and sides, while its sleek racerback silhouette is designed to sit seamlessly over a sports bra.

The striking “Old Royal” colorway has also caught the attention of some fans, with several interpreting it as a nod to the same shade of blue on the Philippine national flag.

The dress is made from high-performance recycled polyester and incorporates Nike’s signature Dri-FIT technology. The fabric consists of recycled synthetic fibers and specialized stretch elements, a lightweight material that will allow players to move comfortably on the court.

The tennis dress is currently available on the Nike US website in sizes XS through XL.

While Nike US does not ship directly to the Philippines, those hoping to purchase the piece immediately will have to look into US-based parcel forwarding services. Alternatively, local shoppers can keep an eye on Nike’s website for updates on availability in the Philippines.
