New In Blue

Noticed anything new about Andy so far this year? Notice anything blue? No, it’s not his “No Compromise” wristband or his Davis Cup apparel. It’s his Babolat Propulse all-court sneakers.

Babolat has come out with a new all-court tennis sneaker that has three breakthrough innovations that help Andy track down drop shots and get extra grip to power through his ground strokes. In addition to the Michelin soles and the Exact Shoe Energizer in the Roddick All-Court sneaker, the Propulse has now a new advancement called OCS. This is an optimized feature that adds to the already high-traction Michelin soles.

Babolat and Andy have been working together for years now, with Andy having performance gear in his name through Babolat and with Babolat partnering with the Andy Roddick Foundation through their Custom+Hybrid strings by giving a “No Compromise” wristbands with every stringing last spring.

You can get a pair of these sneakers soon enough as they haven’t been officially released yet. With Andy’s signature on the lace strap, you’ll be ready take on the man himself when you step up to the baseline. For all of Andy’s Babolat gear, go to www.babolat.com.
