Default What brand of Jacket is Federer wearing?

In here.
It kind of reminds me of the Golf Masters Green jacket.

Nike should give the winner of wimbeldon a jacket every year and let them wear it the next year to wimbeldon. Might be a little tacky though.

On tv, it kind of zoomed on his logo on left chest and it wasn't nike. I couldn't really make out what the logo was.

It's a logo specifically designed for Federer to show that he has won three Wimbledon titles. The three racquets on top of that logo show that.

It comes across as pompous and tacky. Sorry Fed, I'm a big fan, but the jacket looks ridiculous.

It looks better than that hideous green jacket that golfers get to wear when they win whatever it is they win.

I think it's classy. It really works for him because he's not a sweaty hog after matches like the other pigs out there.

The badge on his breast pocket is some custom design with 3 racquets, representing 3 wimbledon titles, and FEDERER written underneath. The jacket is manufactured by Nike, when he was interviewed post match by the BBC, he said that Nike will have to make a new jacket with 4 racquets on the badge.

I am surprised the the "Traditional" Wimbledon allowed him to wear it. It was not even white. I thought it was ok though.

Nike allegedly makes the jacket which means it has contracted the job out to some sweatshop. Brands may design stuff but they don't actually make anything any more.

From what I hear the design for the crest was created mostly by Federer and the jacket was his idea. Federer knows how to stay classy.
