Both players will now wear ON head-to-toe, sporting the newly developed pro apparel collection and custom versions of THE ROGER Pro tennis shoe – the brands first match-ready tennis shoe. Along with on-court apparel ON is launching a clay court version of THE ROGER Pro. Developed in collaboration with ON shareholder Roger Federer, the new shoe is packed with strategic features like a full-length herringbone outsole engineered to move clay through the grooves for extra traction. The herringbone tread pattern also covers more of the mid-foot and opens up at the toe, allowing players to transition for sprint to slide.. like a pro. For the upcoming spring clay court season, Shelton will wear ON apparel and a custom pair of THE ROGER Pro Clay, tailored to his individual style of play.
“Iga and Ben represent the next generation of world-class talent. Both players demonstrate On’s competitive spirit and embody current and future champions of the sport. We are pleased to welcome them to the On family.”
