Ivanovic wore barricades at wimbledon, i forger about the french-probably did though. Guess i'll 'research' pictures of her to double check...

They don't look like the barricades

i think there were barricades made for grass that tw sold like a year ago. looked like the ones verdasco is wearing.

maybe but marats dont look like barricades at all and verdascos do...

I think the Barricades that the pros have been wearing at Wimbledon are based on an older version, but with the dimples sole...

They definitely don't look anything like the Barricade III, IV or even V...perhaps they are based on the Barricade II?

Also, at the French, I think a majority of them have been wearing the Feathers? that's been the case for the clay court season...

but a number of them have also been wearing the Barricade Vs with a "clay" sole...think Verdasco did....

But this clay sole is more of a herringbone thread as opposed to the one featured in the Feathers...

On clay, those are the BV's

Most of the Adidas players at 2009 Wimbledon were wearing CC Feather IV with Grass court soles. The CC Feather IV was the new grass court shoe that replaced the old Barricade II Grass.

Wow...Verdasco's Barricades at Roland Garros look way cool!

gangster33 · 07-29-2009, 10:44 PM

so now pros get personally customized shoes like they do with racquets?

federer_15 · 07-29-2009, 10:54 PM

Verdascos FO shoes are awesome. Obviously customized.
