Abebe Bikila Men's Hoodie

Built around the name set across the chest in clean, bold lettering, the Abebe Bikila Men's Hoodie is a simple, confident way to wear your appreciation for Abebe Bikila. Each one is made to order for athletics fans by Players Couture. Why fans love Abebe Bikila Abebe Bikila won the 1960 Olympic marathon barefoot through the streets of Rome, becoming the first Black African Olympic champion. He retained the title in Tokyo in 1964, this time wearing shoes and only weeks after surgery, creating one of distance running’s greatest legacies. About the hoodie The hoodie is a comfortable cotton-polyester blend with a brushed interior, adjustable drawcord hood and kangaroo pocket, cut to a regular fit. Every order is printed and hand-finished in England. Pick Navy, Black, Red and Grey in S to 3XL. It pairs easily with denim, chinos or joggers, and layers well under a jacket. It makes a thoughtful gift for a birthday, Christmas or Father's Day, especially for someone who has followed Abebe Bikila for years. How it is made We make each order individually rather than printing in bulk, and UK delivery is free. An independent tribute design, not an official product, with no endorsement implied.
