Buddy of mine from Belgium was visiting and he gave me a gift. Said it was brand new, only pair left at his tennis club. He hands me brand spankin new pairs of these beauties.

Who cares if it's laughable or gaudy?! The fabric is beyond amazing and some days of the week, I just want fire on my chest and legs. I can't just wear simple federer polo's you know?

Not bad...

Darn! I found some MiSoul running shoes at Ross for that price, with both pairs of the insoles. They seemed comfy but the interchangeable insoles squeaked in the shoes, very annoying so I took them back. I heard about the same squeakiness complaint with the tennis MiSouls.

Found this jacket federer is wearing for $50 at marshals (needham MA)... I still kick myself for not buying this

when they had it for sale last year for $30. They also had some french open 2011 rafa shirt for $25 in Med.

Best buy posted in a long while. $21.99 is immense for sz 12 (my size) B6s. I thought I'd done well to buy some Wimby 3.3s at $48, 2k11 clays for $60 and some white 4.3s at $77 but they don't come close to this deal. 'Grats.

THX. You just have to seriously luck out and keep an eye out at these places. I find some of the Rafa gear at these discount stores but alas, they are for the slimmer profile.

I got these beauties in Marshall's the other day, everything was an average of 12 USD.

Bought these awhile back this past summer... $0.65 per pair for all the Tholos socks, as well as for each of the ladies' Nike hats and visor. Bought more Thorlos than pictured, too!

I call BS on this .........I just found the same Barricades at my Ross but they were $49.99
That's not the right tag on those shoes. Musta switched the Ross tag!

Maybe but the sizes match up....perhaps an employee mislabeled. Either way, if so, heck of a deal.

Different Ross stores have different pricing i believe. I stopped by 2 while i was going down the freeway and i found Nike City Court VI for $20.99 and $24.99.

I don't know.....the hole of the tag is elongated like it was torn off and re-attached, strategically placed under the plastic tag holder for the photo. Hmmmm......
 
There's a pair of size 11 near where I live with no price tag. When I asked, they looked at the sole and told me $49.99. I looked and saw a tiny '50' written on it. I guess they do this to discourage price tag switch...

Yes, this is correct. Ross marks their shoes with a price on the bottom of the soles. Since I have to protect an "internet reputation", these soles show their respective prices.

#1 is the better lucky finds I have located at various Ross stores. As I have an extensive shoe collection, these have not been worn yet. :)

The following pictures are the bottoms and the "tiny" numbers they write to discourage tag switching.

OK. One more. I bought the first pair of Adidas Galaxy Elite for $25 then another pair when they went on clearance for $20.

Got these from Marshalls (South Bay, Dorchester, MA), they had them 4-L, 1-XL, 1-2XL, and I bought the last Med, not bad for $29.99 for a $90 jacket. I believe this was the jacket he wore in Aussie open 2011.

That's funny to see it again, I actually picked up the Rafa AO11 track top shown above from Ross for $36.99 around 9 months ago and posted here. Loads of tennis gear (esp Nadal's) at all the discount shops in this area. Nice jacket.

I got my white 4.3s for a bit more than $30.

Pretty nice, I found these at Rugged Whse, store closing sale, $24.99. Monfils KSwiss tubes; they also had the regular tubes in the black and red, but not my size. I just wore them to the gym, and I kind of like the way they feel! Going to try them for tennis later this week.

^^^^^ didnt chris from tw destroy those in like 2 hours or soemthing??

I guess that explains why Monfils has never worn his own "signature" shoe. He has always worn Big Shots. I'll wear them on clay, so maybe they will last a decent amount of time. And they were only $25 anyway.
