Nike's new Wimbledon kits for Roger Federer, Nick Kyrgios, Laura Robson

Nike reveals the 2015 Wimbledon kits for Roger Federer, Nick Kyrgios and Laura Robson. 

Wimbledon’s tradition begs for classic on-court style, a look NikeCourt and Roger Federer prove more than happy to oblige.

As the white-filled fashion of Wimbledon approaches, NikeCourt unveiled a few of its athlete looks for the tournament, including a mix of Federer apparel that will take him from off-the-court to the practice grass to in match.

On the court, the seven-time champion has the option of a RF-signature Henley shirt with no collar. A new sew design on the Henley aims for minimal seams to up the comfort quota. While the Henley look proves different for Federer, he’ll also have a simple white polo with thin stripes on the sleeves at his disposal. Expect white shorts and a pair of white Nike ZoomVapor Tour 9.5 shoes, without the splash of color that was frowned upon two years ago when he wore an orange-soled sneaker.

Off the court, Federer’s style ups the ante with a pair of jackets. He’ll don one jacket specifically for walking onto the court and another for between matches. He’ll also go with a different short and a tee for practice time.

Australian Nick Kyrgios will where a polo sans stripes, a look we instead see on his shorts. Look for his shoes to incorporate a “safari print to add a fresh dimension to the traditional looks.”

On the women’s side, London’s Laura Robson stands as Nike’s featured athlete, wearing a tank and flouncy skirt, both in all-white for what Nike calls a highly breathable combination that allows freedom of movement. Robson will wear the relatively new Zoom Cage 2 shoe.

We’ll have to wait until other stars take the court at The All England Lawn and Tennis Court before we see the mix of white-heavy apparel Nike has chosen for the likes of Rafael Nadal, Maria Sharapova and Serena Williams.
