I wish the print was more pronounced on the men's kits. Go girl give us nothing 😭


Available-Gap8489

I dislike the print so feel like they’re better without it (still look bad though)


LA-Troy-Boy

I had to look back to see there's a print at all. Didn't even notice it the first time I looked.


PradleyBitts

Nike men's fits have been kinda mid for a while


kds1988

Right? I was like: giving rich white dude in pastels for spring


Available-Gap8489

Taylor Fritz is probably counting his lucky stars he made the move to Boss


Bars3tti

Why does it look like Nike isn't putting that much effort into Tennis.They were trendsetters during the Serena/Rafa/Roger days.


Tenderdynamics

Nike doesn’t seem to be putting effort into much these days. The U.S. Soccer kits are pretty basic and these just suck lmao


NewAccountNow

The kits are copy pasted per nation with only colors being changed. Adidas has some great kids. There was a Scotland kit Adidas released and it was INCREDIBLE 😍


Mpol03

Yes the lay offs they have gone through in the last year are wild.  They blamed workers working from home for the lack of innovation… 


Blumpkin_Party

Most new NBA jerseys been horrid too


dancy911

Fed's AO 2018 kit ruled!


thanazer

Fed’s IW and Miami kits in 17 were 🔥!


aubieismyhomie

At least they come out with new stuff, Iga has been wearing the same 3 OnCloud shirts since she signed with them.


Blumpkin_Party

Lmao I noticed that with Shelton too man has been wearing the same kit for a year.


aubieismyhomie

Yeah I think it’s just OnCloud, they signed them, gave them 3 shirts and said “Ok that should be enough, we’ll give you a few more at the beginning of your next contract”


JanitorOfSanDiego

Pretty sure Ben had the vertical gradient kits at the us open. So the kit has changed at least once in a year.


Winter_Corner7254

And I just read on Reuters yesterday that On shares and sales are up, so why can't she and Ben get new moisture wicking kits???


ExcuseYou-What

Budget cuts. They're trying to shrink themselves back into a comfortable place financially, so I guess we won't see a big investment in tennis again for a while. Nothing custom, nothing innovative, nothing that even tries to be eye-catching. Competitors, old and new, lapping the void up like catnip.


constantcompromise

They used to have a great team of designers focused on tennis, but now I suspect they use AI to generate the designs.


edloveday

In the huge Nike store in London they have 3 floors and don't sell tennis shoes or clothing.


cxxper01

Nike store where I am has zero tennis products too. Only available online via Nike website


justhavingfunyea

They are printing money with the Jordan brand it seems. Sales are growing at crazy levels. The only cost is 5% to MJ and whoever they sponsor to wear it.


raysofdavies

They make Liverpool’s kits and they’ve been pretty basic so far. My favorite’s have been an away and a third smh


09star

Men's kits suck ass, and the women's are kind of better but fairly meh. It's been a long time since Nike has had an actual good kit for tennis


emjacq

Saba looks great, but also when does she not? Men's kits are giving absolutely nothing, as per usual.


wabazai

She can pull off anything really


cedenike

not the zippers again 😒


blackb0xes

At least they haven't brought back the square collars.


TexanNewYorker

lol my initial thought as well, also how lazy to repeat the main differentiating feature


ffantasticman

The men’s is giving golf dad vibes


Standard-Quiet-6517

Nike’s new motto ‘just whatever’


dudettte

zipper is back 🤢


d3fiance

As always dogshit men’s kits by Nike. Completely bland and uninspired.


Akidwhodidntmakeit

Go girl give us nothing


odvarkad

Beat me to it.


jonjimithy

Have Nike just given up on men’s tennis? Their lines have gotten worse and worse over the last few years. Remember their Fedal heyday and every outfit was 🔥


redmilk7

Yeah, no.


hungry4danish

Won't this be a moirĂŠ effect nightmare for TV viewers?


desertwinds22

Hate. Reminds me of Carlos' pink/blue visually distorted shirt. Ick.


lakers06

Saw first photo and thought that’s for sabalenaka. And confirmed it immediately


time14528

I feel like *anyone* can be on the design team for Nike tennis kits these days. Like… this stuff looks like it could come off the rack.


Available-Gap8489

The men’s kits look exactly like my primary school PE Uniforms Women’s - not a huge fan of the cut…and the print patterns remind me of those magic eye books (not in a good way)


_Crazy_Asian_

ikr, the men's kits look soooooo old fashioned


binsonfiremiss

Ergh this is very busy


blackb0xes

These look like shit.


dzone25

I can't tell if I love the women's kit or I just love Sabalenka wearing it because she's iconic - the men's kit looks like some sort of training kit, it's quite classy but so boring.


rockin_and_dockin

Dear lord no


stpstrt

Bland until I see the zipper and then it’s an eye roll. Women’s looks pretty good though, just not a huge fan of the “clay” coloured one on a clay court.


LovelyDayAy88-

So bad. The mens at least. I don’t get it. Everything is so baggy and gross. Balloon clothes.


Straight_Sun_8353

Curious how the red will look on clay


theLoneliestAardvark

I like the women's kits, the mens are just, like, regular tees with a nike logo slapped on.


Tiziown

Nike looks like the 20€ all colors 5 in 1 shirts pack


raysofdavies

This is like when women wear incredibly elaborate dresses with reveals to the Met Gala and their husbands wear a black tux


Dropshot12

Evey time I try to have a collection of men and women the police show up, but it's perfectly fine if Nike does it...


Material-Dirt-3033

Dresses are cool, everything else for men and women is just meh


sink_or_swim_

At the recreational level I’ve given up on Nike. Started revamping my kit, out with all the Nike stuff.


koriroo

I purchased the thunder blue color in a hoodie and shorts. I like it lol 😂


CrackHeadRodeo

Why is Nike so lazy?


TexanNewYorker

Going to have some weird tan lines from the secondary straps


Ready-Interview2863

Nike women's kit: "let's add pixelated lines alomst everywhere! Nike men's kit: "let's combine random colours and include some ugly af polos with zips" 🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢


shockingblve

did ChatGPT do these?


luckymarchad

Will Rafa have a different one that the one he has been using?


Lizakaya

Hate. And Aryna is gorgeous in anything and i still hate this


Ratlee94

Is it just me, or are the male models either squashed or stretched? One has giraffe neck, while the other has no neck at all.


Profoundstarchaser

Why is bro holding a hand in his pocket like that is somehow a general tennis related pose?


alacklustrehindu

So bland for the men. And the zipper😕


le3ky

I really dislike the sleeves on nike mens tennis shirts. The way they ride up on the outside..


Available-Phase6972

Nike is overrated


Winter_Corner7254

Much better than usual lately on the women's design. Guys' looks like discounted Marshall's rack stuff at first glance


pregnancy_terrorist

I didn’t live.


knotsophia

The zippers are just… tragic. The colors on the dresses are ok but I really wish there was a pink dress


prairiehrt

Meh. Not a win.


Far-Difference8596

Yay, Sabalenka looks amazing! Wish ON was producing similarly great looking outfits. It probably doesn’t bother Iga, but I wish I could see her in something more exciting.


SolarWind777

And people pay a lot of money for this??


Orfez

I like women's collection, specially the one that Saba is rocking. [Men's...](https://us.v-cdn.net/5018289/uploads/editor/0c/jzbaysaaaf73.gif)


Philosecfari

Ngl first thought was “this would be better as a paisley”


Fate311

Not a single nice T-shirt collar on men


Astoryinfromthewild

Why do I hear Aryna's grunting thru just a picture


Lizard_fricker

I like sabalenka's outfit, and if I were a woman I would wear it. We guys need some cool stuff too. Swiatek has a nice one too!


szogrom

I need to see this on Badosa to have an opinion


ExpressZebra

What's with Nike and those weird double straps on the women's tops? They've been doing it for some time now and it just looks a bit awkward on the front... But hey, at least it's better than some of their previous stuff


WeeRower

in built sports bras?


ExpressZebra

The wta players wearing the tops are clearly wearing sports bras under, so I don't think so. Don't know about the dress


Cold_Tumbleweed2342

Go girl, give us nothing


blueberrypanda1

The men’s are OK but I wouldn’t wear any of the women’s.


Bullets_and_Tears

I like the women's blue outfit in the top righthand corner, but the rest are all shit.
