Federer Express: Nike Delivers The Goods.

Whaaaaaaaaaat!?! As if this man ain't pimp slapping the globe on the grass courts, Nike has effectively put him on his high-fashion high horse. Welcome to (and salivate for) Nike for Roger Federer...

As a token of appreciation for Roger Federer’s amazing career success and his dominance of men’s tennis, Nike is surprising him with a luxury bespoke kit fit for a legend as he seeks his fifth consecutive Wimbledon title.

The kit, which has echoes of tennis outfits from the earliest days of the game, has been customized specifically for Roger at a level of quality that matches his championship talent; a bespoke jacket, sweater, and warm-up trousers for warm-up on court pre-game; a luxury leather tennis bag , and an on-court performance outfit. All of the product abides by tournament’s strict white dress code, but includes accents of majestic gold to honor of the reigning king of the Wimbledon court.

Now I don't know about you, but some of us aren't cut out for the Euro-chic ultra slender model look or the classic wing-tip + Brooks Brothers steez. I can certainly get my country-club-meets-streets vibe on all day, e'r day! I love it when ahtleitc goes label goods. Seriously, here we have a Nike bag doing its best CHANEL or Coach imitation. On top of that it's got the backing of a proven winner and the added status of a country club sport... Quite please. Pimpy-ness coming thru.
