It all started at Queens. Nole was unhappy with his Adidas shoes on grass. Adidas couldn't get a proper grass court shoe to him in time for Wimbledon, so Nole wore blacked out Nike's. A bit of a blow to Mr. Dassler's company, don't you think?
Well now it looks like Nole might not wear the boring black and white Adidas Olympic collection at the Olympics. According to these practice pictures, he looks like he wants to keep the Serbian flag close to his heart and wear the official Serbian Kappa top:
The shorts are still Adidas (and I must say, props to Nole on his matching abilities!), so maybe he's just wearing the Kappa stuff for practice. But given his propensity to mix and match, I doubt it.
But don't worry, Adidas. At least he's back to wearing your shoes!
UPDATED: While you were sleeping (and by "you" I mean "I"), Nole made his Olympic debut in the boring black and white Adidas wear. But maybe he'll rock the Serbia gear for doubles?
