For controlled slides and speed
The original THE Roger Pro is a popular tennis shoe based on the 3D scan of tennis legend Roger Federer's feet and was made for hard court tennis. The newer Roger Pro Clay features a full-length herringbone outsole with a tread design made for controlled slides on clay without compromising on grip and seamless transition from sprint to slide.
Since the Roger Pro Clay is made for clay, which is softer than hard court, there's less cushioning making it faster and more responsive than its predecessor.
