US based sportswear brand, Nike, created the looks and style of four star tennis players who represented the brand at the ongoing Wimbledon matches. The apparel and accessories designed by Nike have been a great mix of functionality and fashion!
Roger Federer`s style is clean and refined, perfectly suited to the traditions of England`s Grand Slam tournament. His look incorporates elements of fine men`s tailoring such as subtle pin tucks on the polo and drop-needle pinstripe detail on the shorts. The polo is made of moisture-wicking dri-fit single knit jersey. The shorts are made of dri-fit herringbone twill with a mesh gusset for added comfort and breathability. His Victory Lawn Polo includes a heat-transferred RF monogram on the sleeve and swoosh on the front. Federer`s Victory Lawn Polo features a lightweight woven collar and collar stand and a four-button bonded hidden placket. His shorts are made of dri-fit herringbone broken twill, with a custom-fit tailored waistband and a dri-fit drop-needle pinstripe design. His on-court apparel and footwear were accented in flat gold, bringing richness to the tournament`s white palette. Continuing the lightweight imperative, Federer wore the Lunarlon Vapour Tour court shoes featuring an upper constructed of Nike Flywire engineering. At just 13 ounces, they are the lightest on-court shoes Nike has ever created.
Maria Sharapova has been intimately involved in the design and development of her performance apparel.
