When will they release different colors? I have 3 pairs of the current color but want something different. And I have used mine on clay. Not ideal but worked fine for me in doubles.

Possibly the black or navy blue version pictured previously.
I'd be ok if they re-release the ivory version from the last Kith drop, however it wasn't the best. When the tread matches the outsole the shoe looks pretty bad. It needs the contrasting tread as seen on the RF2 and Indigo versions.

I'll take anything that's white and neutral. I just hate the current colour way as almost nothing matches such a bright blue.
 
There were several colors of the Roger Pros with LE runs available on Kith.

Don't forget the (RF)² that came in a 2 pack:

I had totally forgotten about these. White with a gum sole is a pretty great colourway but I do hope they are going to take the plunge and do a dark upper at some point.

Does that mean there have been official colourways now?

1. White with royal blue accents that we have seen in the majority on Roger and Leylah Fernandez etc etc.

2. pair that is white with light blue and orange/reddish accents

3. White Kith release with the gum sole?

Does that seem right from what you have seen?

Yes. White with black was also available on Kith. (See previously posted photos)

The blue orange was Federer's FO colorway that matched his Uniqlo outfit. Seen those on the BAS selling for top $.

The gum sole was the (RF)² 2-pack.

Oh, so there has actually been four colourways so far. Do you think we will eventually see something like a black upper version with a white midsole? Or all blacked-out version?

Here’s a video of me playing in the Roger Pro’s. I loved them, but I’m hesitant on bringing them out on court again unless I hear more about the durability from posters in here. I’d like them to last at least a few more matches.
by chance have you ever gotten the opportunity to ever use this shoe in grass, clay, turf, or omni (anything not hard essentially)?

Do we think they will make more tennis shoes I’m the future? Or continue to make these in different color ways/special editions ? Would love to see a small deal of them but I doubt we’ll see it.

Wish my feet were wider, I'd probably get the clay court ones.
I assume they didn't change the sizing/shape when large-scale production began?

I have narrow feet, however for tennis you really should be wearing two socks anyway. I'd recommend trying 2x regular crew socks, or even regular socks + thorlo tennis socks. The added thickness will make these fit fine, I'm sure about that.


clay court version, orange and white
They are already for sale on the On website. It's weird Federer didn't mention it, nor has the On Instagram posted anything. I'd be quick if you're trying to get some. I bought two pairs in two sizes so I don't get caught out if one doesn't fit.

Interesting - when I go on the ON site, the clay option are white/savannah (ie. Beige) rather than orange

I have tried On Cloud X and they work reasonably well for my needs. I tried Cloudgo as well and they were a nice pair of shoes as well. The On Roger shoes just don't look durable enough.

I have mine for a month now and I’m already wearing the right toe out. White foam is coming through already.

I've heard that these shoes are meant to be sublime for maybe 5 hours and by 10-15 hours they're toast. Is that accurate?
 
I dunno, they’re just so meh visually, carbon shank aside; kinda like the vast majority of the Lacoste tennis gear - the only thing that’s somewhat offensive is the price, although that little magnetic monogrammed lace tab is naff.
 
Most people here seem to be tougher on their shoes than me, but I am a decent 4.0 doubles player and these shoes have lasted me a good bit. I don’t track hours, matches, etc., but I have had these shoes in a 3 pair rotation for over a year. I play 2-3 times a week. The mesh top is finally starting to tear on my right shoe, and the sole is flattening out, but they are still match fit.

It's a shame they didn't go for a clay design that wasn't yet another bright, bold colour like the ugly blue and now orange. I think everyone here would've gone crazy for a release of Feds Roland Garros version. The coloured in sole looked amazing.
