The 9 best things to buy from The Wimbledon Shop before the finals this weekend
From the viral 2026 Strawberry Red towel to the sweet court-side trend inspired by Princess Kate and Princess Charlotte, here is the official Wimbledon merchandise to snap up before it sells out.
🎾 Editor's Note: Wimbledon merchandise has a reputation for selling out by the time the Men's Final wraps up. If you want to secure the seasonal Strawberry Red towel or a piece of the upcycled Heirloom line, we recommend checking out before the weekend rush begins.
The final weekend of Wimbledon 2026 is officially here. As the world prepares to watch tennis history unfold on Centre Court, there is no better time to browse The Wimbledon Shop and bring a piece of the tournament home.
Luxury British textile brand Christy has been the official towel provider to the All England Lawn Tennis Club since 1988, crafting the towels that are famously draped over the shoulders of tennis royalty. For 2026, their collection blends archive heritage with a burst of summer strawberries and forward-thinking sustainability.
Whether you're looking for a collectable souvenir, an activewear upgrade, or a piece of upcycled fashion, these are the nine best items to add to your cart before the final match point is served on Sunday.
If you're planning on watching the finals from your garden or Henman Hill, this oversized 180x180cm picnic blanket is a must. Made from heavy-duty, ultra-absorbent cotton towelling, it provides a plush, comfortable barrier against damp summer lawns. Featuring the traditional Wimbledon green base with sleek purple accents, it's durable enough to pop in the washing machine after a day out.
Nothing says Wimbledon quite like strawberries and cream, so it makes total sense that Christy’s seasonal colour for 2026 is a bright Strawberry Red. It's the same spec the players get on Centre Court, plus you can get it monogrammed. The brand sent us one to test, and it’s already the absolute pride and joy of my tennis-loving daughter.
For tennis purists who love a clever design, the Tennis Court Towel is a brilliant alternative to the standard striped look. This oversized beach towel cleverly mimics the actual layout of the historic lawn courts, complete with boundary lines and the official Wimbledon seal. It delivers the same premium, quick-drying performance as the player towels, too.
A gorgeous pick from the official tournament lifestyle range, this compact canvas makeup bag is as practical as it is charming. With a whimsical Wimbledon tennis print and a sturdy zip closure, it is the ultimate beach bag or vanity companion for keeping your SPF, keys, and summer lip balms safely tucked away and perfectly organised.
If you love a style statement with a sustainable backstory, the Christy Heirloom Collection is a must-see. This year, they have given previous seasons' surplus Championships towels a second life by converting them into luxury, heavy-duty summer bags. Featuring soft yet durable cotton shoulder straps and plenty of room for your daily essentials, this upcycled tote is soft to the touch and serves as a subtle nod to tennis history.
Bring the five-star clubhouse experience straight to your bathroom – the Baseline Robe is crafted from the same high-grade, plush cotton terry that Christy is famous for. Cut in a relaxed, unisex shape with deep pockets and a tie-waist, it features elegant stripe detailing along the trim, plus the official crossed-rackets logo on the chest. Available with either classic green or deep purple accents.
Celebrate your besties with this colourful pack of Wimbledon-patterned friendship bracelets, perfect for stacking or swapping. Following Princess Kate’s recent appearance on the Three Peaks Challenge wearing a woven bracelet handmade by Princess Charlotte, friendship bracelets are the ultimate court-side trend. We bet a few of these are heading straight to the royal household this weekend!
Perfect for popping into a gym bag or guest bathroom, these face cloths are crafted from an ultra-dense 600gsm loopback cotton for maximum softness and durability. Inspired by the tournament's legendary "tennis whites" dress code, they're the perfect accessory for your summer skincare routine.
Bring the iconic scent of Centre Court home with this elegant ceramic candle. Crafted from sustainable soy wax, its light, fresh-cut grass fragrance instantly lifts and brightens any space. Boasting an impressive 50-hour burn time, it’s the perfect long-lasting keepsake to keep you reminiscing on the magic of The Championships long after finals weekend.
