About Us
When it comes to tennis supplies and running shoes, Stuart’s Of Boca is a South Florida landmark, having been in the same location for more than 30 years. Our owner, Stuart, has been playing tennis for over 50 years, and was a college player. This passion for the game prompted Stuart to open his store in 1983.
Since that time, Stuart’s Of Boca has provided tennis racquets, racquetball racquets, squash racquets, tennis shoes, tennis clothing, pickleball paddles, tennis and running shoes and much more to literally hundreds of thousands of players, from weekend hobbyists to serious competitors.
And when it comes to running shoes from all the biggest names in the industry, the saying really is true… “If you didn’t buy your running shoes at Stuart’s Of Boca, you paid too much.”
Along the way, we’ve achieved some significant milestones, such as…
