Serving Style On and Off the Court: Tennis legend Roger Federer has partnered with the Japanese fashion brand Uniqlo and innovative Northern Irish designer Jonathan Anderson for an exciting collaboration. The Roger Federer by JW ANDERSON Collection for Uniqlo seamlessly merges Roger Federer’s timeless on-court style with Jonathan Anderson’s dynamic approach to sports and performance wear.
Where tennis meets everyday fashion: Uniqlo’s Roger Federer by JW Anderson collection offers elegance, style, and functionality to a diverse audience, from tennis enthusiasts to those who appreciate a classic yet modern wardrobe. This collaboration between a tennis legend and a fashion leader has birthed a new era of LifeWear, merging Roger Federer’s experience as a tennis professional with the creative vision of fashion designer Jonathan Anderson, who possesses a profound understanding of sports and performance wear. The result is a collection that seamlessly transitions from the tennis court to everyday life.
Jonathan Anderson, renowned for his innovative design approach, expressed his excitement, saying, “When I was first approached about creating a collection with Roger, I remember being very happy and excited. That’s because I was so influenced by watching Roger play. Thinking a lot about what LifeWear means for all the different people who look up to Roger, we designed a collection that could be worn in an actual match, for a classic look, or just as easily be worn around town. We’ve got something that feels elevated, and it is kind of timeless.”
“I’ve always wanted to have a collection perfect for playing tennis while also versatile for the other parts of daily life. I’m fortunate that Jonathan shared this vision. Together, we were able to create a stylish and comfortable line rooted in a classic tennis style. Jonathan is talented, creative, and incredibly down-to-earth. It has been a pleasure to work with him on this collection.”
