The Nike Pros Need to Change Things Up a Bit

Down the Line! has been making a few very accurate, very pointed observations regarding the repetitiveness of the Nike apparel line, esp. in the men's game.

Basically, all the pros are not only wearing the same styles (esp. the sleeveless numbers), they are wearing the same colors of those styles. Which in many cases, makes for a bunch of look-alikes on the court.

While I'm sure this is by design by Nike, it seems to me (and Down the Line!) that there are plenty of other color-ways of these outfits that would serve both the player and the brand better. Everyone looking the same isn't a good thing, it could very well end up backfiring if it is, in fact, planned.
