Let the media maelstrom begin!
Andy Murray, who won his very first title on grass at Queen's Club this weekend, will be taking it back at Wimbledon - stylewise that is.
The Brit baller will be paying homage to the last man from the home country to win the season's third major: Fred Perry who won it in 1936. The 22-year old is, of course, sponsored by the legends eponymous clothing label.
From the pic, it looks like he'll again be working Nike kicks at The All England Club but this time from the brand's White/Gold Collection. There is also a retro zip up jacket and cricket style jumper to compliment the kit.
I love this throwback stuff for Wimby, including the cable knit tennis sweater and the shorter shorts. They could be shorter but I'll take what I can get. And the neutral colors against his already pasty skin really wash him out - but what's new?
UPDATE: More pics from the reveal...

Fed won't like this at all! Another player wearing old-fashioned clothes at Wimby? Sacrilege!
ReplyDeleteI don't find Murray attractive, but he looks quite good in this, although I'm not a fan of players wearing old-fashioned clothes in Wimbledon.
Hey, it looks like Murray has gotten a tan in that last picture.

ReplyDelete@the last Anonymous, took the words right out of my mouth.
ReplyDeleteHe is just not all that. Is it right that he has Beckham's managament? Still doesn't make him prettier.
ReplyDeleteI actually really like the old-fashioned clothing style. Its just a pity that its being worn by Murray. Ugh.
