Roger Federer’s Humorous Take on Using ‘The ROGER Clubhouse Pro’ Sneakers for Pickleball

The Swiss company ‘On’ received Roger Federer’s stamp of approval when he endorsed their latest footwear, ‘The ROGER Clubhouse Pro’.

Last month, on his Instagram account, Federer revealed the collaboration and emphasized the versatility of the new sneakers for a range of racket sports, such as tennis, paddle, and pickleball.

“This is the Roger Clubhouse Pro,”the Swiss said in the video. “The first time I held this shoe in my hand, I was very excited because you can play any racquet sport with it. Tennis, paddle, or dare I even say it, pickleball.”

The 20-time Grand Slam champion proceeded to describe the distinct characteristics of the recently released ‘Clubhouse Pro’ shoes, which are part of the ‘THE ROGER Pro’ sneaker collection.

“It uses the same foam as On’s running shoes and includes hidden CloutTec. So it’s responsive enough for the court and comfy enough to wear all day. To make sure you’ve got the stability you need, there is a Speedboard in the heel and in the midfoot. A reinforced upper protects against wear and tear. And the herringbone sole can do it all. I think you’re gonna like it. I do,”the Swiss said.
