A JOSH GIBSON JERSEY REIMAGINED FOR MODERN TIMES

History:  An undeniable powerhouse and juggernaut of the Negro Leagues, the Homestead Grays secured nine consecutive league titles and three Negro World Series championships from 1937 to 1948. Some of baseball’s most legendary Hall of Famers showcased their skills with the Grays, including catcher Josh Gibson, first baseman Buck Leonard, and pitcher Satchel Paige, who played for the Grays during the 1931 season. 

The Homestead Grays Cotton Twill Baseball Jersey stays true to the designs of the Homestead Grays era, with period-correct lettering and Josh Gibson’s number 20 on the back. It’s crafted with a soft-touch twill that retains the hard-wearing durability of vintage wool jerseys but is easier to wear and easier to wash.

In honor of the life and legacy of Josh Gibson, we have partnered with the Josh Gibson Foundation to bring you this special cotton twill jersey.
