$595 USD
REPRODUCTION OF ROBERTO CLEMENTE’S 1970 PIRATES JACKET
History: Roberto Clemente rose to stardom in right field for the Pittsburgh Pirates after starting his career as a prodigious teenager in his home nation of Puerto Rico. On September 30, 1972, Roberto Clemente became just the 11th player to record 3,000 hits in what proved to be his final regular season at-bat. He made one more regular season appearance, his 2,433rd as a Pirate, on October 3 to tie Honus Wagner’s record for most games played for the team. Clemente passed away tragically on December 31 of that year. Following his sudden death, Clemente was elected into the Baseball Hall of Fame through a special election.
To honor his legacy, we reproduced the jacket he wore on the field with the Pirates in 1970. We designed it to be just like the original, with black satin and finished with twill lettering and his now-retired number “21” on the sleeve.
