Novak Djokovic played his first match since his humbling second round loss to Marat Safin at Wimbledon. The defending champion defeated homeboy Frank Dancevic 6-4, 6-4 to move into the third round at the Rogers Masters where he'll battle either Robin Soderling or Fernando Verdasco.
What can be said of his new adidas duds though - the Summer Edge Theme Crew in lava orange paired with the Summer Edge Short in mono sky blue? Egads. The color combo is frightening - is this supposed to be some kind of "fire + ice" moment? It's horrendous.
No offense to Fernando but I hope the Spanish baller doesn't play Nole. Why? Because it could be painful on the eyes. Check it:

I think I'm the only person alive who really likes this wacky color combo! :D I don't know why, but I do. You're right though, I hope two Adidas wearers do not meet up because that's a bit hard on the eyeballs.
ReplyDeleteAnd that's why I am glad Wimbledon has the white rule. My eyes!
ReplyDeleteIt's pretty rough. I don't know if this is an optical illusion or what, but the orange shorts and blue shirt a la Verdasco look better than the vice versa way Djoko's rockin' it.
ReplyDeleteIt's still rough, though.
to each his own b2012!
ReplyDeleteyeah maybe it's the orange that's too bright so it looks better on bottom. i don't know.
but adidas seems to be losing their minds - they're sniffing the crayola crayons box hardcore again.
It works better on Fernando.
ReplyDeleteYou're not alone Barcelona, I also love this color combo. A bit much, true, but in the end a big thumbs up from me.
ReplyDeleteFernando looks better because the blue is easier on the eyes and that color is the dominant one he's wearing.
ReplyDeleteIs it just me, but does the color scream Bozo The Clown to you? Don't get me wrong, I kinda like it, but I'm sure Adidas can come up with something better for these colors.. *sigh*
I'm waiting for Adidas to do an all beige outfit.
ReplyDeleteyeah ff - anything but what he's wearing please.
ReplyDeleteVerdasco's midsection is very nice. It makes up for a lot.
ReplyDeleteyou mean his hot abs? mos def anon.
ReplyDeletescrew the colours..i'm in love with Verdasco.i donno, maybe its that nude photo shoot he did[*blush*]..oh maybe i've jst grown to like him. Sorry Rafa,but i think Verdasco is getting hotter everyday..
ReplyDeletelol..

ReplyDeleteRich...this was hilarious..
ReplyDelete"they're sniffing the crayola crayons box hardcore again"
