Two tennis superstars at the top of their game just got fresh new kicks from their biggest sponsor. Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz, the world’s top two players who have been trading major championships and Instagram bragging rights all season, recently showed off exclusive Nike sneakers that tennis fans can’t get their hands on yet.
What Makes These Nike Vomero Premium Sneakers So Special?
Sinner and Alcaraz recently took to their Instagram stories to showcase the latest Nike Vomero Premium sneakers. The Spaniard sported a striking neon green pair, while Sinner showed off his version in vibrant shades of yellow and orange.
“Vomero Premium,” Alcaraz captioned.
Meanwhile, Sinner wrote:
“Thank you Nike for the new Vomero Premium shoes.”

For those unaware, this Nike pair has yet to be released to the public and is part of an exclusive drop reserved for the world’s top two players. The Vomero series is well-known for its plush cushioning and comfort, making it an ideal choice for long-distance wear.
The latest edition weighs approximately 334 grams for men’s size US 9 and around 303 grams for women’s size US 8.

The ZoomX foam and two articulated Zoom Air units further enhance the shoe’s comfort. It also features substantial stack heights, 55 mm at the heel and 45 mm at the forefoot, giving one of the most unique underfoot experiences.
Hype surrounding the shoe is steadily growing, with its release anticipated this fall between September and October.
How Did Sinner and Alcaraz Build Their Nike Partnership?
Sinner and Alcaraz’s rapid rise on the professional circuit brought them lucrative brand partnerships, including one with American sportswear and footwear giant Nike. Alcaraz, 22, has been associated with Nike since 2019, but the two parties signed a new deal last year that extends into the mid-2030s and could reportedly earn him between $15 and $20 million annually.
Sinner also partnered with the apparel giant in 2019, and nearly two years later, Nike chose to invest in him long-term. Both parties signed a staggering $158 million endorsement deal, which also included the creation of Sinner’s own custom logo.
He debuted his personalized merchandise featuring a ‘Fox’ during the ATP Finals in Turin last year.
