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

Speaking of appreciating their skills, I gotta say, Rafa was extremely disciplined on sticking with his game plan. So much so, I was a bit surprised he didn't try to go for more on his serve to get a few 'cheap' points. Consistently kept it in at around 180k's to get the rally going, knowing well that the longer rallies were always gonna favor him. Then there's the continued peppering of Fed's backhand. The strategy seems so straight-forward, but it just works.
EDIT ~ From TennisConnected... Rafa's 3.3 in the year-end/holiday season colorway... For the World Tour Finale... yes, the W.T.F.

^ Not yet, I don't think. The next collection will be for the summer hard-court season. We should start seeing US Open stuff towards August.

^ I believe a lot of folks didn't like the bootie/unitongue fit (I certainly didn't and neither did Rafa), so I guess it was the right move to make it an option for either way.
 
Pls let me know if the photos show-up...

Oddly enough, the blocking on Fed's is different from the ones in the pic.

For marketing purposes, the least they could have done was make them look the same.

Feds shoe looks like a trail runner....

Pretty soon I am gonna cave on the rafa 3.3 in the US Open- "Taxi" CW.  I just wish it would get down to 80-100 before I do that though.
 
That new pic of Fed's volt Vapor looks pretty good... for a sneaker... just not a tennis sneaker.

Same ol, same ol for Rafa's Ballistecs. I really wish they'd get a bit more creative.
 
Agreed P - Rafa's colorways are terrible - At least they gave Fed some good CWs.   The Fed shoe looks like its small, cramped, and would wild within 10 plays on a hard court.
 
Yeah, Fed's shoe looks really narrow, but he's known to have a super-wide foot, so customizing his pair (if he'll even wear these) will be interesting.

The more I look at these 4.3's, the more

 I am.
