1967 Darel Carrier USA Pan-American Games Worn Warm-Up Jacket & Shorts

USA Basketball Warm-Up: A Symbol of National Pride

An Exquisite Piece of Sports Memorabilia

This remarkable USA Basketball warm-up ensemble is a testament to the rich history and tradition of American basketball. The jacket, crafted by the renowned manufacturer Wilson, features a size “40” tag, complete with wash instructions and a flag tag indicating “+1″ long”. The left chest proudly displays the “USA” patch, embroidered in vibrant red, white, blue, and yellow, symbolizing the nation’s pride and excellence in the sport.

Similarly, the pants are adorned with the same “USA” patch on the front left leg, maintaining the cohesive and patriotic theme. The Wilson manufacturer’s tag, size “34”, along with wash instructions and a blank flag tag, is located below the inner rear waistband. Despite a large hole along the rear inseam, the shorts remain a cherished artifact, reflecting the wear and tear of intense competition.
