ITEM DESCRIPTION

 
Reserve: $300.00
Winning Bid: $531.46
Price Realized: $635.09
Auction Date:7/22/2007 9:00 PM EST

Intricate and brightly colored appliquéd designs embellish this striking, limited edition (24/100) Muhammad Ali-inspired leather jacket. Designer Jeff Hamilton pulled out all the stops with this one. The front left breast of the jacket says "The Greatest of All Time" with two boxing gloves connecting on each side of globe. Lappets on the shoulders are designed as US and Soviet flags with flags of other countries moving down each sleeve. The cleverly designed cuffs appear like those of boxing gloves, complete with laces. Finally, on the back is a smart likeness of Ali, emblazoned with "The Greatest" across the shoulders. Ali has signed the left boxing glove on the back portrait and it is mint in black Sharpie. The jacket is a men's medium. The most intricate appliqués on the front breast show very slight wear at the edges and the "s" and "t" of "The Greatest" on the back of the jacket has a small amount of rubbing. The silver stars studding the jacket as well as the snaps on the front and lappets show a bit of oxidation. These issues are small and this gorgeous jacket is over all in EX to NM condition. Perfect for the Ali fan!
