Arrogant Federer at his best on his new fashion line.

Still, Federer doesn’t have much competition in the contemporary tennis world—he says fashion doesn’t come easy to the men on tour. “History is like this in tennis,” he says. “We walk around in tracksuits. If you walk up in a suit to a tennis tournament they are like ‘What’s wrong with you?' I’ve been pushing the envelope a little bit and this collection brings all of that out.”

I hope I have elevated the fashion sense in the tennis world a little bit !

Arrogantererer going at it again. Unbelievable.

Who could ever argue with Fed's sense of fashion?

 

[MarcusInKensington]

Since when has a blazer with personalised monogram and a wooly jumper been classed as fashion? It's all a bit Alan Partridge to me.

Only RF can pull it off in that clown suit. That k90 though!!!

 

[metsman]

unreal arrogance..not only does he disrespect his fellow tennis players but also he disrespects track stars by telling them their suits aren't real suits

 

[MarcusInKensington]

 

[OhYes]

Only RF can pull it off in that clown suit. That k90 though!!!

Ha ! But he didn't pull it it off. It is ridiculous as it can get.

 

[TupeloDanger]

He's definitely always kept it classier on average than the average ATP competitor. That ain't gonna be everyone's cup of tea, but it never bothered me. Zigging when everyone else zags will always be edgy.

The gold trim stuff was a pretty tragic misstep though. Way too Real Houswives of Gstaad.

Ha ! But he didn't pull it it off. It is nidicolous as it can get.

LOL, Mainad bhai! When i first saw Federer in that outrageously funny outfit at Wimbledon, I knew Ramarajan finally had some serious competition-

Cmon guys, nike needs another clothing line to mark up even more. What better than to mark up even more roger federer before he vapor tours I mean vaporizes away

 

[OhYes]

Did you do that sketch?

How is this related to my post ?

Errr...just wondering?

 

[ScentOfDefeat]

Ugh.

 

[OhYes]

Errr...just wondering?

No, I didn't draw that sketch. I just found it nice when I saw it.

 

[Noelan]

he is advertising his new business in sport fashion . Knew that OP would buy the story and rush to show us once again how great Federer is.


It seems that I was mistaken for years as I tought Nike dressed him on and around the court

 

[uliks]

Yeah, basically this...

“I was playing with my dad and he was fed up with my attitude,” Federer says. “He said he didn’t enjoy playing tennis with me like that so he placed a five Swiss Franc coin on the bench and left. I couldn’t believe he left me there because it would be like a 45-minute bus ride home.
....
That turning point in Federer’s maturity helped define part of his new apparel and footwear line with Nike, the NikeLab x Roger Federer collection. A small, five-dot logo in the shape of a Swiss cross is tied to that moment in his life, Federer says, and adds a personal detail to the line.

A bit over the top hawking.

 

[Tenez101]

Dude looks suave enough, but whenever he talks he comes off as dorkish. Stick to Rolex commercials, Rog.

As a fed fan i dont like him concentrating on his fashion line. I dont see a lot of people wearing his gear, overpriced. Nikes last like 3 weeks on a hardcourt, have sucked since they got rid of the courier 6month with the kevlar toe. The jmacs are still my fav, but soft bottoms like most nike users

Did Fed get brainwashed by Anna wintour on how ATP could use some fashion elevation? ATP is a tennis tour with focus on tennis, and not wta where there is parallel interest in fashion.

 

[TennisHound]

What a pious arrogant fool

In all probability Mirka does all the work. She's the one friends with Wintour. Fed probably just comes, looks at the colour scheme and launches the product.

I may climb perhaps to no great heights, but I will climb alone.
A kiss is a rosy dot over the 'i' of loving.
A large nose is the mark of a witty, courteous, affable, generous and liberal man. - Roger Federer
