I'm not a fan of the logo. But it accomplishes the goal of being a recognizable brand. Surprised they can get away with such big red logos in Wimbledon.

Uniqlo design team meeting: "That white shirt is a bit boring; what can we do to make it 'Uniquely' us? I know, gimme the scissors a second: (team member proceeds to chop collar ends off shirt, resulting in another hilarious sartorial fail) Perfect!! That is soo us!! No one else in the world would ever design an aero collar!! Do you think we should do a wind tunnel test?" (Yet another unique low...).
I think it's actually from Fed
 
I don't know whether it's just the promo photos that make it look a bit "off", but it's another miss in the Federer x Uniqlo partnership imo.

They have attempted to go for more features after the last few outfits, but adding details to a design without getting the cut right is pointless.

It looks like they've experimented with the collar again, adding a cutaway style which is fairly adventurous, but the rest of the outfit looks more suited to a club player knocking up on the weekend. A very daggy cut with standard drop split tails on the side seams which is not particularly flattering.

Why can't they get this right??! Dressing Roger for Wimbledon and getting the cut right should be the easiest task in the world. They have a style guide of all the years he has played there in Nike's very familiar cut for the shorts and shirt.

I think it's actually from Fed

Agree. I think the Windsor style neckline may have been a suggestion from Roger.

The mixture of the contrasting lining on the placket and the cutaway collar makes it look a bit like a baseball collar, which ruins the effect imo. Might just be the angles I have seen so far.

Has Roger changed from the tie-back styled pirata to an elasticated headband?

It might be just the pictures making it look that way.

Reminds me of the styles worn by Lebron James and Allen Iverson.

Damn that’s a cool looking quarter zip sweater. Thanks for posting it. Was that part of his lifewear collection? I’ve got to try and track that down I guess :(.

Nope, all part of his Wimby Nike kit for that year.

This is definitely my favourite Wimbledon outfit that he ever wore... the purple and green detailing is just fantastic. That sweater is great as well.

2009 is the highwater mark for me. It was so different to anything else anyone was doing at the time that it just stood out massively, but kept an element of elegance. It wasn't something I would wear myself but it suited Federer.

In terms of his best kits that I would also wear myself, 2005 and 2011 are also very good:

Much more limited than FO.
Not sure they will restock since the quantities are almost 1/3 of FO items.
Hard to believe Uniqlo only had limited numbers on Wimbledon kit.
Their stock for Wimbledon has always been significantly smaller than for other tournaments. Good idea, seeing how wimby stuff from other companies always ends up with huge discounts.
