the pro's nike tennis socks

[luke_1983uk]

i thought i would share this with you's

i was watching nadal a few days ago on sky sports (the match against monfis) and they mentioned the pro's nike socks, how they are the exact same sock as you would buy from any sports shops, all they do is roll the top of the sock into the inside of the sock making the nike tick at the top of the sock

you can see on this picture, nadals socks which are just folded into the inside of the sock.

i do this myself and they look exactly the same,

Cool! Luke have you seen the Nike Fall line yet?

 

[luke_1983uk]

no i have seen some of the wimbledon gear, at my local store on his computer awhile ago, the guy told me that roger federer's shirt might be a heat changing top, which sounds nice, i will let you know what the fall gear is like if he lets me take a look.

I don't know about Nadal but a lot of touring pros wear double pairs too,Safin definitely.Also a lot have their ankles taped (Federer) and some have some kind of protection "pad" or something on their achilles tendon,I think Nadal in this picture as well.

 

[meh]

Look how chunky the midsoles of Nadal's shoes are...guess that was the panacea to his foot problems earlier this year.

And does anybody else find it amusing that Nadal's shoes are printed with "Vamos" and "Rafa" instead of his last name, like everybody else's is?

OBSESSION on the fall line for greekness

 

[andyroddick's mojo]

his shoes look like theres a ton of cushion at the front sole, is that true for the breathe 3's? I like how it says VAMOS and RAFA

 

[ZoomUltraflight]

i don't understand what you mean by folding them inside the sokc, i have the smae ones that nadal and fed wear, and i am trying to make them look a little less stupid and get the swoosh to the top, but don't understand how you explained it

 

[Rafa Nadal]

[MMkay5]

No, no, no. Your assumptions are all wrong. Nike makes tennis specific Dri-Fit socks that have the Nike swoosh at the very top where there's also a "collar" as in the above pic.

You can buy them from TW. Here: http://www.tennis-warehouse.com/descpageNIKE-NMDFSTCS.html

 

[jackofromalsager]

Not that there's anything wrong with that, of course.
