2025 French Open Outfits

[jmacdaununder2]

Yep, after showing some recent promise we’ve reverted to ‘pre-schooler dressed for Sunday church’.

 

[vsbabolat]

I think the Nike designers were inspired by playing Super Mario Brothers and really like Luigi’s color pallet

The similarity of colors is uncanny.

 

[Chairman3]

I don't get all the hate.
I like this kit. I like the white collar and they didn't go overboard anywhere except the dumb colorway on the shoes.
I get this color pallet is usually more of "djoko at the US open" but it's clean and simple

Totally agree

Coco for the women but I haven't been watching

Lacoste grey/white for the guys and the kit Tommy Paul was wearing.

 

[Konik_1982]

The Lacoste kit that Arthur Fils rocks looks awesome. But in general, the women´s kits are much better here than the men´s....Coco, Osaka, Badosa, Parks...many ladies are looking great here.

Yes, there have been so many great women's kits at this RG.

Does anyone know where to get this New Balance baseball cap in the UK/Europe? I really wanted the dark red NB cap from the USO '23 but they didn't seem to release it. Again, I can't seem to find this one. It's as if they just create the caps custom for the players and don't release them for general sale which is a shame as the limited seasonal items tend to be far nicer colour ways than the generic stock on their sites. Additionally, the Paris apparel line only has about 2 items on the UK site right now where as TW USA has a much larger range - do they not want to capitalise on sales or is their tennis range just more of a brand advertisement so you look at their range of shoes for tennis/running/lifestyle?

With matching colors it would work. But with these not matching colors the shirt needs to contain at least a little of the other color. As it is it looks just randomly combined by a person with bad taste.

This is much better:

This is much better:

They aren't random colors...blue and green are complementary colors on the color wheel.

The grey Lacoste, the Le Coq Sportif that Gasquet was wearing is decent. Least favorite is Nike all of it. All Nike men’s is terrible designs. Women’s Nike line is much better looking.

Firstly, they are NOT complementary colors. Secondly, this wouldn't necessarily mean matching for fashion.

 

[Rosstour]

Right. Aren't red/green complementary colors?

Regardless, green and blue look great together. I don't understand the complaints

 

[Chairman3]

Fair point by you.
But colors next to each other on the wheel generally go together.
But I'll return my dime store art diploma for screwing up what complementary means as it relates to the color wheel.

I agree with you sir, I'm a fan as well.

Le Coq Sportif has had some good stuff all through this clay season.

Some of the Nike womens stuff has been amazing. Such flattering cuts and colours.

I’ll admit that Nike women’s line looks nice. The men’s Nike line is a disaster.

GMP is a tall, imposing and elegant frenchman, and yet Nike has managed to make him look like a disaster area

I think as soon as the advanced photos came out of that bordeaux Nike kit people were worried, and justifiably so.

NB tennis does not have a huge presence/market outside the US

I don't think it's that bad, and it's very French. Everyone looks like a mime

Griiigor’s Lacoste and the grey variant of it, Med’s shoes & I think Mizuno for the men’s side?

That Lacoste kit is awesome. I saw your description of Sinner RG garb so I knew Nike wasn't going to make your list

 

[jmacdaununder2]

It would be interesting to see if Draper could pull off Sinner’s kit, or if he’d just end up looking like a tennis playing version of Angus Young.

Yeah, seems blaming Nike is a trendy hobby here. FO2025 definitely is not the best from Nike, but not disastrous in any sense. I find it better than AO2025 at least.

What's your favourite and least favourite kits of RG this year?

 

[Bxb]

Elsa Jacquemot

First photo is R2 and the second one R1. Made a change from a skirt to shorts.

I see she already tried to tuck the skirt. Here's Polina Kudermetova wearing the same outfit:

Not any more.
They had split shortly before the Olympics.
The outfit is cute.

@Bxb @jmacdaununder2 @Rosstour @arthurli22 @vsbabolat @innoVAShaun favourite and least favourite mens and womens kits so far?

I think overall the women have much better collections this year.

Best overall (men and women): Osaka

Others from women I liked: Gauff (NB), Navarro (Fila), Lys & Dolehide and some others (Asics; the blue and yellow kit; I found it fresh and sporty), Parks (Wilson), Rakhimova (Lotto). Nike's dresses are also quite nice. I prefer the white ones (Cristian, Eala, Raducanu) and the Sabalenka one.

Women's worst: maybe Kudermetova (Armani)

Men's best: Gea, Fils, Dimitrov (Lacoste; I like all the colorways and combos), Djokovic (Lacoste), Navone (Joma). The Alcaraz colorway of the Nike kit suits him. Sinner also ok IMO. I like the green and blue colors. Something a little off. Maybe it's the white collar. Might like it better with a different color.

Men's worst: Medvedev (Lacoste), HEAD in general.

 

[cha cha]

Why would anyone say yes to a black dress, a black visor, a watch with a black band, essentially a blacked-out racket, and neon yellow shoes?
It looks insane.

I'm not a fan of the Adidas kit this year at all. To be honest, as a brand, they're something I would have bought as a teenager years ago but I don't buy their stuff now.

I will forever be a teenager.
I love the all black.
But not yellow shoes, or yellow anything, ever.

What's your favourite and least favourite kits of RG this year?

Definitely Griekspoor t-shirt

 

[Bxb]

I quite like the Bublik kit too. A splash of colour and detail with the blue. And a nice cut in the shirt and shorts.

 

[Chairman3]

She wears that well.
And of course has the Vapor X.

Everything about him looks like he's homeless in the streets of Astana.
But the personality, that is five star.

I have doubt whether you will find a lot of guys look like him in Astana. He is basically a Russian and Kazakhs do not look like that at all.
