Wilson recently released a very special racket. In a very limited edition of 500 pieces, the Wilson Jack Kramer Autograph Retro is back. This time in graphite instead of wood...!

The Wilson Jack Kramer Autograph Retro is an ode to tennis icon Jack Kramer. Around the 2016 US Open, this racket was released by Wilson in a very limited edition of 500 numbered pieces. This was to mark the 70th anniversary of Jack Kramer's first victory at the US Open. The original racket was made of wood, this retro edition is made of graphite. The racket does have the original 'faux-wood' details.
Little is known about the specs of this racket. The Wilson Jack Kramer Autograph Retro is therefore more of a collector's item than a racket that will still be used on the court. The original racket was 27 inches, had a 70 (!) sq/inch head size, 18/20 string pattern, 32.9 cm balance and a weight of as little as 371 grams. But few players today would still be able to handle a racket with such specs. The Wilson Jack Kramer Autograph Retro is exclusively available on wilson.com and comes with a matching retro triple racket bag and an exclusive book. For 399 dollars you can be the proud owner of a piece of tennis nostalgia!
