are they the striped Ts ? I thought only the clay season apparel was out. Not RG.
Apart of the collection, but there’s a Court Challenger Shirt and the Flex 9” shorts so far. Some vertical stripes shorts are coming out too.

Andrea Gaudenzi, ATP President, said that the Rome Tournament could probably take place on the first week of September; then No Us Open??
 
Yes, very 1st time... it's like 1st time with a girl actually. Anyway I have been 12 year yonex shoes guy. but lately they totally screwed up the shoe by making it super narrow and Heavy. Even the Great Stan the Man won't wear the eclipsion 3. Anyway, I have to day that powercushion seem to be better energy returning than this Zoom air but given that I have no choice, this Nike Zoom air is pretty good and close to powercushion. Like I said, I wish they had Zoom air all they to the front of the Vapor 10.

Have you finished testing shoes now? Did you settle on vapor X as your main shoe? How many pairs did you buy, and are you using the same insoles that you used with the yonexes?

I should add... for 30 bucks on sale those shirts above have a REALLY nice airy fit and feel. Not quite as slim as standard Nike crap

have the ghost green one and love it. Thinking about the navy one. That one above, is that powder blue and orange?

For some reason Nike just re-issued the Wimbledon 2019 vapor x with the translucent sole... cool, I guess? Really liked it, but why tho?

When are the Turbo GPs coming out. That’s the real question
Summer? However that may be delayed if summer tennis won’t happen. If that(summer freedom) doesn’t happen, I’m going to be pissed lol.

They are. They are scheduled to release the Ghost Green and Laser Crimson colorway for men and women.
I just noticed, the outrigger/foot frame thing on the junior vapor x isn’t a plastic, it’s actually foam. I wonder if that makes a difference?

I wouldn’t know how it is for a jr player but generally speaking, it’s more for comfort for them. I would say they aren’t as explosive/hard on their shoes so no need for a plastic foot frame.

Yeah, also they don’t have that massive plastic piece covering the toes, it’s painted to look like it’s there.

Can anyone confirm that the turbo won‘t come out in the next few weeks? I‘m in the market for new shoes and really considered buying those...

Probably during June/July, because of what’s going on that it may get delayed, but I think the original release date was summer.

Also Nadal’s outfit? Though it’s been shown in earlier pics in the thread, is also here.

Wouldn’t they be pushed back? I would agree with @Tennis sprew and say they will be coming out in September. They do look cool though!
I’m not an insider, however there is logic to both sides. It makes sense to release now because nothing is going on, however it also makes more sense to wait until the actual French Open to release the kit. Either way, great outfit!

Well, it depends. Like for example, the Clay Season Pre-RG outfits were out when they were scheduled to, despite no tourneys held. Some of the RG outfits are already on Nike, as for the rest; it will follow. Even though most tennis events aren’t held, Nike has to do as scheduled since everything is set in stone at least 1-1.5 years in advance unless they decide to cut it or push back.
