🎾 Official Nike Tennis (and other brands as well) Thread

Can't wait for USO Exclusive stuff.
T-shirts will probably be awesome as usual.

Me too. Also, those Australian Open Feds and the other 2 1st quarter colorways are alright. I feel like Nike isnt using colorblocking well on these shoes. Like the colorways could be so much nicer. I really wish for the olympic ones, the white and red were flipped. That wouldve been amazing to me. Dont snooze though, Vapor 9s are awesome on the court. My favorite since the 5s.
 
Rafa's Lunar TR1 PE's... from NT's own RafaVault...

HMMMMMM, interesting.

Too bad all that USO Rafa gear will be of no substance this year.:smh:

Was looking in here to see if anyone's pair shipped out yet. Still preparing to ship for me.

Yeah, I also see a pending charge on my credit card too for the RF 287. I'm guessing they'll start shipping next week. It's right around the six week mark.
 

Gotta say, that the Rafa stuff is taking a backseat to Fed's line for me right now. I would definitely dig a pair of the challenge court winter '12 vapor 9 tours, and the 1st Q '13 stuff looks pretty ridiculous as well.

I like Rafa's stuff, but I don't love it. Can't imagine Fed's stuff is going to get much better than what it is right now- Rafa's got some time.

What's the latest on Djoker and Nike- can see "joker" nike line being pretty awesome
 
No, Djoker signed with Uniqlo a few months back.  Uniqlo's a Japanese brand, similar to... Gap, I guess. Shocked everyone at the time cuz no one saw it coming.

He's still wearing Adidas shoes though. 
 
at least Nole's ST line appealed to some including me, but Uniqlo doesn't do it for me. Damn shame.
BTW- P, expecting something in the mail this Wed. No, not the 287's, something along the PE line:wow:

I think (at least, I hope) Uniqlo will have something interesting for him for the US Open.  Right now, I'm just giving them the benefit of a doubt that the new designs are still being worked-on.  I'd be very disappointed if they have the same plain-polos for him again. 
 
Fred: Other than the personalized heel, tongue, and insole, is it pretty much the same as retail? or is it something made for him to wear?

The color of the sole is also different BUT it's TR1+ without the accersories
 
This years USO was a COMPLETE BUST!

A "friend" who was there, said I could get anything I wanted, he gave me pics and I told him what I wanted, unfortunately there was nothing there.... he even asked me if I wanted more (I gave him super expensive tickets).

the "PE" shoe is crap, even if I got it for technically free I wouldn't get it.

The T-shirts all look the exact same- boring grey/blue/volt combo.

We didn't get any PE socks this year, which sucks because I've been hitting myself in the head for not getting them last year (got my friend 6 pairs instead of geting them for me)
 
Rich: at the us open usually there is a booth (like a team store at sporting venues). Its usually fed and rafa shirts along with NYC themed tees. They also usually have premier wristbands which are the absolute closest thing you can get to fed and rafas actual wristbands. They usually also have the socks that are issued. They are super soft and thick, quality is amazing. They blow away elites.
 
^ Yeah, pretty disappointed with the tee's for this year.

Didn't know that their socks were that much different! Thicker than Elites too?

Anyway... lol.
