This sweet vintage shirt looks to have been an old football jersey from all the way back in the 1950s. Football jerseys changed a lot during the 20th century, going from heavy woolen sweaters to tees made from lightweight synthetic fabrics. This jersey is made from a material called durene, which was a popular choice for uniforms in the mid-century. Made from a blend of cotton and synthetic fibers, durene was favored for its durability, which was perfect for rough and tumble sports like football.
This jersey comes in a rich shade of gold, and the number 56 has been stitched onto both sides. It also has stripes on the sleeves and a bit of light padding around the elbows.
Fits like a modern unisex adult medium. There are some holes, repairs, and discoloration throughout, see pics.
