Nike Fall 2015 *Predictions*

I wonder what the Rafa premier jackets for the US Open are going to look like. Strangely, no visualization is available thus far.

It is certainly not the one from Wimbledon and the practice shirts, colors are quite different. Also don't you think it would be a bit odd that the shirt hasn't even come out yet and Wimbledon is over? In my opinion it is probably an additional shirt for the US Open, or it could be for Shanghai and the later tournaments.

I know they are different. I only say that almost-entirely-white colorway would be simply too much of the same. I collect Rafa's outfits for a few years now but when I saw the new t-shirt with the white top and green-strike front and bottom back, I felt it was stale (with his current Montreal outfit). I would have hard time justifying making a purchase just because the swoosh and Rafa logo is in a different color, apart from which it is Wimbledon all over again. Wouldn't you?

I agree that it is a bit stale and I would not purchase it but this is the kind of thing that Nike has done before. For example look at how similar Nadal's 2013 French open and 2013 wimbledon outfits were! That was outrageous.

I wonder if Rafa will wear that Green Strike/White crew for Cincy. He did wear a special outfit for Madrid this year so it is possible.

Indeed, what's more, all the three variations had the same bland design to begin with (only the dot-matrix pattern at the back made them somewhat special).

BTW: I don't have any of the t-shirts. If I was to prioritize, I would first get the one he won the 8th French Open in, then the mint one for the European clay.

Yeah, I am curious, too. I clung to a hope it is going to be post US Open since it wasn't available for sale but, few hours later, it is up for graps at TW.

I feel kinda disappointed. Nike really seems to be putting quantity over quality. It only makes me wonder how many more outfits are there going to be for the final stretch of the season...

Got a 'Not my fault' t-shirt through today - really nice soft material, slim-ish fit and the lava is seriously vibrant on the black. I approve

I seriously doubt it will be the minute the USO stuff comes out. More like mid/late Sept - or by Oct 1 when the fall stuff drops.

Sounds like it's the same as the Court Shirt with the camo court outline and volt swoosh - incredibly soft.

He didn't. It looks as if it was a post US Open outfit after all.

BTW: Does anyone know whether it is possible to buy the wristbands Nadal is sporting these days. I seem to have looked everywhere but they are available nowhere. Are they player exclusive?

@Fumiaki.peRFect - that's indeed interesting. also on a german website the polo goes with white shorts. so basically Roger wear's the same shorts Rafa wore in Madrid ...

shoes are black/hot lava - however, not sure if Roger will actually wear them. it's quite interesting as it seems that he also will never wear the white/back and black/wolt ones ... a bit strange what Nike is doing here (though I like the back/volt ones) ...

2011 nothin came,, 2012 with awful designed vapors, 2013 was with 3m jacket , 2014 nothing came, so what will happen this year?

Yes, 2 tone simple colorway is nice.
I bought lava/black one.
But I think I had a mistake...
Maybe something special one will be on Nike booth? (Roger's legend shoes for night.)

No separate day jacket for Rafa? Does it mean he is going to wear the Hamburg/Montreal/Cincinnati one for day sessions just like he used to wear Madrid/Rome one during Rolland Garros? On the other hand, back then they really matched nice (without need for a new jacket) while the US Open day outfit is mostly green strike and the Hamburg/Montreal/Cincinnati jacket has only logos in green strike.

So yeah full fed outfits are the green which we've all seen, and then the other is the white polo, white shorts, full lava wristband, white socks with lava at the top and then essentially the lava vapors that have been going around online except they are lava and white not lava and black. I would assume the all green is for day and the white for night but it could be the other way around.

So much for Fed wearing the green outfit?

In this pic: Sampras with Air oscillate and checked shorts; Nike Federer shoes new color; Agassi shoes Nike Air Tech challenge III; Dimitrov is in new color for advantage breathe polo (probabily for night session).

My guess is that he's probs wearing the green day and white at night. Bit of a change from the usual darks but that would be my guess given that every single other person is in their night gear.

That's a fair assumption. I'm hoping Nike/any of the pro's post something Friday afternoon of where they'll be. I'm heading into the city this weekend for my Mom's birthday but I may have to take a little detour to see Fed or something. If I do, I'll be sure to take some pics and post here for everyone. I'm keeping my eyes peeled - I know last year Vika made an appearance on some pop-up court in mid-town somewhere. I'd be happy with that again....

My TWE order just reached and I wanted to share couple of items.
I have got new fed white polo and hot lava/white wristbands.
Both items have new compositions, they are very very soft.

I love the little details on the polo (a star ending for the ventilation holes on the back and "New York 2015" written inside the collar).

I think it would be very nice with WTF '12 vapors
