WATCH: When Roger Federer Battled A Housefly For A Nike Advertisement

Roger Federer shocked everyone when he ended his decades-long partnership with Nike in 2018. He made the switch to a hitherto unknown Japanese brand called Uniqlo in a deal that was worth $300 million.

While Roger discontinued wearing Nike gear on the court, he decided to leave one part untouched. This was interesting considering that he would now be sporting two brands. Roger Federer had decided to continue wearing Nike shoes which was seen as an advertisement for their quality.

Back in 2013, Roger appeared in one of the most popular ads for Nike shoes. Interestingly, Nike shot this commercial inside Roger Federer’s lavish mansion. Let’s find out what this Roger Federer advertisement was about.

The Swiss star also has his own shoe brand called ‘On’. This has allowed him to use his creativity in creating the best footwear possible. Despite various rumors, he still hasn’t made the shift to his own shoe brand and prefers Nike.

He recently acquired the rights to his legendary “RF” logo which was the property of Nike before that. However, it hasn’t made a return to his kit yet. Things seem to be going in the direction where Roger Federer may finally say goodbye to Nike once and for all and switch to a different brand.
