  1. Absolutely love it! I love the way the color combinations go together. Good job Nike! Of Course Rafa can make anything look good, but this kit is fantastic.

  3. While I wholeheartedly agree Rafa looks good in anything – for me the bright colors are RAFA! They represent his STYLE OF PLAY, HIS WINNING PERSONALITY, and he always looks ready to “GO FOR IT” on court….like the bull behind the gate at the rodeo! The few times he wore subdued colors he looked well…….. “subdued”! That does not represent our CHAMPION (in my opinion). Seeing him all energetic and undeniably present on the court presents him as a force to be reckoned with – which is what he is!!!!! I say turn it up! He then looks like the amazing player he is! When you look the part you feel the part!

  4. Rafa will look good in these colors.
    Just one suggestion: why not lengthen his shorts a few inches? Remember his winning began when he wore “clamdiggers”? He might like to wear shorts that are sort of an “in between” length. Rafa is a trend-setter so, why not?

  5. Nice colour ! Any colour looks good on Rafa with his skin tone. Good Luck Rafa I can’t wait to see you on court and I miss seeing him play seems like a whole long time I didn’t see him ! I’m sure he will shine at monte Carlo and will be so nice if he can get this one ! Love from Toronto Rafa !

  7. I’d really like to see a softer look for Rafa in future. His outfits all look the same, and they are rather passe compared to other players. Looser shorts would seem more comfortable

    I wish he’d play in a sleevless shirt again. It’s such a good look for him. We are all obsessed with
    his beautiful arms .

  9. Okay, I want to comment on the ‘sexist’ topic where I must admit find RAFA is gorgeous and sexy.

    When I first saw him play maybe 2007/8 I didn’t notice his looks or body. I was confused about his ‘helicopter’ swing, picking at his shorts and pirate pants. My dad played tennis and is a purist, so RAFA was weird to me. It took me a few times watching him play and trying to ignore the things that made him ‘odd’ to me.

    When I started to get pumped up when he was playing, the VAMOS and ‘raging bull’ fight just got me more into his game. Wow, when RAFA was on, you couldn’t look away. He became tennis to me and I was hooked whenever he played.I tried following Monfils but he didn’t seem interested in winning, RAFA WAS.

    Then while reading a post, on some other site it was mentioned about his skin tone, eyes, butt and then I was like; wait a minute. HE IS SUPER HOT TOO!!!!!!!!! No joke.

    Since then, the winning and looks just cemented being a die hard RAFA fan. Seeing him in TH briefs awesome. Yes, it sure helps NOW, but on any given day I would rather see RAFA with trophies and biting them rather than his undies.

    Even though he is naturally sexy when he was winning a lot it just added to his sexiness. His nature and genuineness also shined through.

    Sorry guys, I am guilty.

    RAFA fan forever.

    What about RAFA with trophy in his undies. (just joking)

  10. Djokovic is killing me. With Roger it was easy; 23:11 is undisputable evidence that Rafa is much better player than him. However, Djokovic is now 25:23 and I cant stand that. The last match and unlucky 7:6 give me hope that Rafa will destroy him next time, win FO2016 and get positive H2H in the near future.

  11. Coming from the two older males who commented on his outfit and constantly go on about Rafa’s hair

    • Yeah right. One or two comments out of hundreds = “constantly”. LOL.

  12. Great point by J Beer about the female groupies on this site who seem to be far more interested in Rafa’s looks than his game. That’s not only “sexist”, but incredibly shallow as well. If some of us male fans did that on Maria Sharapova’s or Ana Ivanovic’s fan site, we’d be run out of town.

  14. Personally, I would like to see John McEnroe on his coaching staff. He talks so positively about Rafa’s game and he has the know-how. Let’s stop with the negative talk. He is still number 5 in the world. Go Rafa in your dynamite new outfit.

  15. Good luck Rafa at the Monte Carlo clay court tournament. Please pray and hope the new colours bring you good luck and free from injuries and ill health.

    I agree that Rafa looks fantastic in any colour! Nike are excellent and know who will carry their Brand with the due swagger and image they wish to create..

    We miss you Rafa and pray that you can go through to finals and win and bring back the old
    exciting competitive tennis that had us out of our seats
