Wimbledon frowns on Federer's shoes - FOXSports.com

Apparently, what you see above is too colorful for Wimbledon.

According to multiple reports, Roger Federer -- who probably should have a little clout at the All England Club after winning the title seven times -- was asked to change his orange-soled shoes after his first-round match against Victor Hanescu.

Wimbledon is infamous for its strict dress code, calling for predominantly white clothing. Players often test the limits of what is acceptable in the fashion-conscious sport.

Federer seems to have obliged. He came out Wednesday for his second-round match in more traditional white-soled shoes:
