This cool vintage football jersey dates all the way back to the 1940s, and it's held up impressively well over the years. The jersey was created by Lowe & Campbell Athletic Goods, a company that was started way back in 1912 by George Lowe and Keedy Campbell. Based out of Kansas City, Missouri, Lowe & Campbell emerged as a sportswear manufacturing pioneer in the 20s, and in 1931 they were purchased by Wilson Sporting Goods. Despite merging with Wilson, Lowe & Campbell continued producing apparel under their own separate name until the early 60s.
This vintage jersey is made from what feels like a cotton blended durene, a fabric that was often favored in early athletic wear because of its durability and breathability. The number 43 is stitched onto the front and back of the shirt, and there's also some light padding around the elbows.
Fits like a modern unisex adult Extra Large. There's a repair on the sleeve, holes on the back, and some discoloration on the numbers, see pics.
