Will Fed wear ON clothes when Uniqlo contract ends?

Break To Win

Semi-Pro
From a commercial point of view, it would make sense, I just think ON would have to do something they haven't done yet to dress Roger.

Well, it's still a long way off, only in July 2028 will we know

Either way, I miss seeing Federer in action.

The guy stopped shaving when his Gillette contract was up.
No, he is all about $$ and will not care about Uniqlo when they stop paying him

Barely had a beard a couple tournaments then went back to normal so no he didn’t stop shaving lol. And of course if you’re getting $300M to wear a brand you signed a contract with you would too

His whole career he was neatly shaved before every single match. No ND/Rafa/Andy/Stan dirty lazy look.
The day they cut his contract, he stopped shaving and played a few tournaments all scrubby and not neatly shaved as previous 20 years...
Coincidence? Don't think so.
The day Nike stopped his 25+ year deal, he was off to the next one. Sure, $300M and all...but again, the answer to the OP question is -- no brand or business loyalty, next one who pays gets him...

As it should be when somebody is that successful. So many offers on the table so you can pick the best one and get paid. Would it be better to say no to any deal and wear whatever you want? Depends on the player but there’s absolutely nothing wrong with getting contracts and sponsorships.

Interesting points! I never corolated Fed's Gillette contract with his always clean shave looks for matches. Makes sense. Same with Messi too

Again, I totally agree with what you’re saying however, that was not what the OP is about. The question is will he and I showed a few examples that clearly point in the direction of yes he will once the contract is up
 
Look how many suckers he's enticed to buy On & Uniqlo for tennis. As one of the most marketable retired tennis legends ever he might as well maximise his income while he still can; after all he's basically a 'Kardashian' at this point - why should he be judged for cashing in just like all the others who didn't even really have an exceptional talent to begin with do?

"basically a Kardashian." Right. Got that.

Huh? Nothing "nepo" about the Fed.
