Connors gear: fill in the blanks

[brinkeguthrie]

Jimmy was all over the place, and for most of career, his clothing was, it seems, definitely a cut below the European stuff IMO. Here's what I recall;

Clothing:
Tacchini...Robert Bruce...Cerrutti 1881 (which looked to me like the Bruce line with 1881 branding) Slazenger...Reebok...and then some unknown "Jimmy Connors" line.

Racket:
T2000...Graphite Pro Staff...Estusa...Slazenger ceramic...Prince Mono. (still uses I think)

Shoes:
Nike...Super Pros...Brooks...Converse...Reebok...swooshless Nikes with no deal. (still wears I think)

Jimmy went Wilson T2000, Wilson Pro Staff Midsize, Slazenger Panther Pro Ceramic, Slazenger Phantom 90, Estusa, and Prince Mono

shoes Jimmy wore Nike early on in his career. Then went to Brookes, Converse, Nike Air Tech Challenge 4 low. Then had a deal with Reebok in retirement and then when coaching roddick was wearing the Nike Air Tech Challenge 4

Jimmy and Vilas both wore some brand for a few years called "Super Pros," 1977-1979 era or so. Connors was white leather with the red/blue >><< design, and Vilas was an off white heavy duty canvas with a powder blue ankle collar and his GV badge in a circle on the forefoot. Here's a version of the Connors I've never seen until now; https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/vintage-jimmy-connors-converse-super-150685202
