DIZYGOTIC is soon to release its 6th Project Alpha, in collaboration with American tennis ball manufactures Penn. Michael Hernandez led the DIZYGOTIC x Penn Project Alpha collaboration as his debut project with DIZYGOTIC. Michael has a deep history and passion for tennis. This collaboration reflects his appreciation for the evolution of tennis culture over the past few decades, particularly in the realms of athleisure and tenniscore, while paying tribute to the late '80s and early '90s anti-country club and rebellious style.

The DIZYGOTIC x Penn Project Alpha features a premium stonewash denim and canvas upper, accented with felt and the iconic Penn 1 & 2 tennis logo on the heels. This pair stands out with its mismatched color and material design, along with asymmetrical detailing on the lateral and medial sides. The insoles boast memory foam lining, along with an EVA midsole that provides comfort. Strobel boards feature mismatched DIZYGOTIC logo prints, and the Vibram mega-grip outsoles, in mismatched colors, offer enhanced stability and durability. Each pair is meticulously handcrafted in Nectar Lab, rather than produced on an assembly line.

Besides the sneakers, each pair comes with the following accessories:

  • A pair of mismatched rope laces with logo aglets.

  • A pair of mismatched 3M reflective flat laces with logo aglets.

  • A pair of white 3M reflective flat laces with logo aglets.

  • A zircon stone brooch, designed to perfectly match the colorway.

  • Two co-branded optic yellow Penn 1 & 2 tennis balls.

Exclusive DIZYGOTIC Penn tennis balls are sold separately.

The Penn x DIZYGOTIC Project Alpha will be releasing on August 30, 2024, 1:00 PM Pacific time exclusively on the DIZYGOTIC website:
