The adidas Rod Laver was first conceptualized in 1970 to be a court companion for the eponymous tennis player. Updated for modern play, this version in red nylon is clad in tonal suede at the toe and heel, a breathable mesh tongue and a padded collar for additional support. The athlete's name is debossed on the rear. A contrast, dual-density PU sole equips a herringbone tread pattern for traction.
