Rafa in Paris 2012.
Here’s a first look at Nike’s Paris 2012 collection for Rafael Nadal. We gave you exclusive views of Summer 2012 colorways in Rafa’s next signature shoe, the Nike Air Max Courtballistec 4.3, and this new catalog shot represents the best resolution image of the sneaker yet.
Nike’s “Rafa Finals Clay Crew” Dri-FIT jersey top and Dri-FIT “Finals Short” also hook up with the “Scarlet Fire” colored Air Max Courtballistec 4.3, all of which you’ll be able to find modeled on court by Nadal next year.
Thanks to CK reader Anthony Huynh for the email tip.

So plain! Nike used to put Rafa in crazy shirts. Why the change Nike?
Yes. I find that Adidas lasts longer than Nike..
