Quite underwhelming, isn’t it?

“I had frequent consultations with the development team, and I’m extremely pleased with the game wear they’ve created. It is exceptionally high quality, not only in terms of the silhouette and coloring, but it also has the functionality I need during play. This will be my first appearance at Roland Garros since 2015, and I’m looking forward to playing in UNIQLO game wear.

I guess that me too, I’d wear and say anything if I had a $300 million deal…
What do you think of Federer’s outfit? What do you think of his chances at Roland Garros?

Uniqlo Roland Garros collection will be available from Monday, May 20 at select UNIQLO stores and via UNIQLO.com.
