Robert Haillet (26 September 1931 – 26 September 2011) was a French international tennis player.[1] He competed in the Davis Cup a number of times, from 1952 to 1960.[2]

The iconic tennis shoe adidas Stan Smith was initially named "adidas Robert Haillet" when introduced in 1965, but was changed in 1971 after Haillet's retirement from tennis.[3]

Haillet staged a remarkable comeback in his fourth round match against Budge Patty at the 1958 French Championships. Patty was leading 5–0, 40–0 in the fifth set but could not convert his match points and Haillet won seven consecutive games to win the final set 7–5.[4][5]

Haillet turned professional in mid 1960 when he joined the pro tour of Jack Kramer.[6]
