A year after launching the signature RF 01 tennis racket line, Roger Federer and Wilson is launching the RF Classics Collection, paying homage to Federer’s legacy and global influence, drawing inspiration from his iconic nCode racket, which he used from 2004-2006. The RF Classics Collection features two limited edition rackets, both developed in collaboration with Roger Federer. The first racket is a modern interpretation of the design of the classic red-white nCode, in the form of the RF 01 Pro frame. The second racket is the original, nSix-One Tour 90.
RF 01 Pro Classic: A modern take on the nCode aesthetic, featured on Federer’s RF 01 Pro frame. The SABR-inspired design supports versatile performance with effortless spin, pace and direction changes. Comes with a molded RF racket cover ($350 USD).
nSix-One Tour 90: A re-release of the original racket Federer used during his 2004–2006 reign, authentically reconstructed for today’s player or collector ($299 USD).
“I have so many great memories with my Wilson rackets, but the nCode® will always stand out,” says Roger Federer. “It means a lot to bring this piece of my career back for new generations of players and fans.”
During his legendary 24-year career, Roger Federer won an astounding 20 Grand Slams. He set himself apart with a graceful yet aggressive all-court game defined by pinpoint shots, a majestic backhand and tactical brilliance involving both artistry and efficiency. Designed in collaboration with the Swiss superstar as part of our co-branded RF Collection, the RF 01 Pro Classic features a cosmetic design inspired by the one originally featured on the Wilson nCode Six.One Tour 90″ which was the racket he used during his most dominant period from 2004 to 2006 when he won seven slams, including three US Open’s. The racket itself is tuned to the specs of Roger’s superlative playing style. SABR Frame Design allows for the pace, spin and pinpoint directional changes that were hallmarks of his game, while the racket’s fast head speed and enhanced ball pocketing give you access to performance characteristics that he used to such devastating effect. A power-inducing, spin-generating string pattern, vibration-dampening feel and a premium leather grip are authentic to the next-level designs that Roger wielded with effortless precision. Includes a classic molded racket cover in iconic Wilson red and emblazoned with Roger’s logo.
