i would have...umm adidas for clothes, head for racquets and maybe gamma and babolat for strings....just wondering, people like andy murray have fred perry as clothing sponsor but have adidas for shoes. does he have a double sponsorship or does he get it himself. also, the racqet that he uses looks like a i.radical but has that extra long bumper strip of a prestige. does anyone know wat he uses?

Good topic Intelligence,

Shoes don't have to be from the same sponsor as the clothes.

I would probably like:

Racquet: Babolat/Wilson
Clothing: Nike
Shoes: Babolat/K-Swiss

I never noticed that long bumper strip on Murray's racquet before...I'll check it out.

I just checked it out, and that is (I think) purely an i.Radical. The throat area of the i.Radical MP looks very similar to that of the Prestige. The i.Radical OS is a bit 'shorter' in the throat.

umm ok thanks...but i used to use the i.radical and isn't it meant to be red on the side? instead of the usual black murray has?
have a look: on this pic, it is black(as usual as wat murray has) -www.independent.co.uk/multimedia/archive/00102/sport190705_102728a.jpg
on this pic is just a pic of a normal i.radical mp-http://ec1.images-amazon.com/images/P/B0000AQ8WG.01-ASIXP6X5XLGQ6._AA280_SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg

You're right...I doubt he's using an i.Prestige though, becuase there's no point of making a Prestige look like a Radical. Perhaps he requested a custom "Prestige"-like bumper? Because, as you problably realize, the old Radical bumper guard isn't really useful, as it wears down really quickly. That's my guess...you have a good point though.
