Novak Djokovic’s match wear is in vivid blue, inspired by the blue courts at the Australian Open-allowing him to blend with the court -while the graduated stripe on the collar is a nod to Djokovic’s personal style.
For Kei Nishikori, the match wear echoes Australia’s natural beauty and sunshine in bright, clean colours, while also reflecting his powerful playing style. Nishikori sports a collared polo,
Beyond style, all of the match wear is fully functional and designed to maximize performance on the court. This year again features Dry EX, a highly functional fabric jointly developed with Toray–relied on by UNIQLO’s Global Brand Ambassadors since launch. The special arch structure of the material makes it comfortable and quick-drying, preventing excessive moisture or stickiness due to sweat. The mesh construction in the back and underarms provides extra ventilation to prevent overheating, while reduced seams enhances comfort during vigorous play.
