The French Open has attracted plenty of attention on court \u2013 but not just because of the tennis.<\/p>\n
As always in tennis, fashion has been a hot topic of discussion, with the outfits of several leading stars having been scrutinised over the past fortnight.<\/p>\n
The tournament culminates this Sunday with Jannik Sinner<\/a> facing Carlos Alcaraz<\/a> in the men\u2019s singles final, and their outfits have attracted plenty of attention.<\/p>\n Here, we look at what inspired both Sinner and Alcaraz\u2019s outfits, what the reaction has been \u2013 and how much they would cost.<\/p>\n Both Sinner and Alcaraz are sponsored by Nike, one of the biggest \u2013 if not the biggest \u2013 clothes sponsors in tennis.<\/p>\n However, both the Italian and the Spaniard have sported different looks during their respective Roland Garros campaigns.<\/p>\n World No 1 Sinner has opted for what has been titled the Nike Men\u2019s Summer Advantage Slam Polo, a green polo-style shirt with a white collar.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, world No 2 Alcaraz has opted for the Nike Men\u2019s Summer Advantage Slam Top, a classic-style tennis shirt without a collar, with black and white stripes.<\/p>\n Alternate colours and variations on both outfits were designed by Nike, though Sinner and Alcaraz have both kept to the same colour outfit throughout.<\/p>\n Nike\u2019s theme is rugby-inspired, and both outfits are accompanied by a rugby-style top, the same colour as their respective outfits.<\/p>\n Sinner and Alcaraz have been wearing the sweater-style jerseys for their post-match interviews and will likely wear them during Sunday\u2019s trophy presentation.<\/p>\n If you want to buy the \u2018real deal\u2019 version of both Sinner and Alcaraz\u2019s kits, be prepared to spend a pretty penny on them.<\/p>\n On Tennis Warehouse<\/em>, Sinner\u2019s polo top costs $105, while Alcaraz\u2019s shirt costs $90.<\/p>\n It is a further $120 to buy either of the pair\u2019s respective rugby-style tops, while the outfit shorts also cost $90.<\/p>\n Points and money earned by Gauff, Sabalenka Swiatek, Boisson, Raducanu, Eala at French Open<\/a><\/p>\n Who are Carlos Alcaraz\u2019s parents Carlos Alcaraz Gonzalez and Virginia Garfia Escandon?<\/a><\/p>\n It is fair to say that there has been a rather mixed reaction to both Sinner and Alcaraz\u2019s outfits.<\/p>\n Normally known for wearing more simple colours, world No 1 Sinner\u2019s look has drawn comparisons to Super Mario Bros character Luigi, with even coach Darren Cahill sharing a meme on social media.<\/p>\n Asked about the outfit during the tournament, the 23-year-old admitted he was unbothered by the conversation around it.<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s nice, you know? I feel like sometimes we need to see the funny part also at times. It\u2019s something different, the outfit,\u201d said the Italian.<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s also nice sometimes to change up. If not, it\u2019s always too boring. It\u2019s good to have something on at least.\u201d<\/p>\n Meanwhile, Alcaraz\u2019s black and white striped kit has drawn comparisons to the Hamburglar, a McDonald\u2019s character from the 1980s.<\/p>\n Read Next<\/strong>:\u00a0Jannik Sinner or Carlos Alcaraz?
