The Swiss master Roger Federer has long been the ambassador of the Nike brand. He helped popularize the “RF” logo with them before moving to Uniqlo in 2018. The “RF” logo, however, was owned by Nike until the Swiss Master repurchased it recently.
The fact of owning this logo has raised some questions since it has just unveiled a new series of sneakers. This is Roger Center Court, Series 0 which he developed with “On”, a Swiss company in which he invested about a year ago.
Since the “RF” logo is still popular with many tennis fans, many wonder if On will use this logo in the future. Check out On’s answer to this question.
The Roger Federer logo
After the series was unveiled, On answered many popular questions in the FAQ section of their site. One of the questions concerned the use of the “RF” logo in the future. They answered the question by saying:
“We don’t. The RF logo belongs to Roger and we decided to embark on this new adventure with a new look.”
Even if On does not use the “RF” logo, we can expect their sneaker series to be very popular. This is because there are so many Roger Federer fans around the world and any product that has been developed with him will surely be popular.
We’ll probably start seeing Roger put On’s shoes on when he returns to professional tennis now. He has worn Nike shoes in all his tournaments although he does not have an official contract with them. But this may soon change.

We will have to wait until 2021 to see if this will happen when Roger ended his 2020 season while undergoing a second knee surgery. I hope he will recover well and win some important titles when he returns in 2021.
