STALLONE ITALIANO |
|
| VINTAGE ADIDAS ROCKY 4   THIS IS A VERY RARE PIECE OF ADIDAS MEMORABILIA. THIS TRACKSUIT WAS ESPECIALLY DESIGNED FOR SLY STALLONE (AT HIS REQUEST) TO WEAR IN THE 1985 MOVIE, ROCKY 4. IT IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION AND HAS BEEN IN MY POSSESSION, KEPT IN DRY STORAGE, NEVER WORN, FOR THE LAST 2 YEARS. I WOULD SAY THAT IT HAS MAYBE BEEN WORN / WASHED A HANDFUL OF TIMES BEFORE I FOUND IT. IT IS BLACK IN COLOUR AND HAS THE THREE ADIDAS TRADEMARK STRIPES ON THE SHOULDERS. THESE ARE IN THE RED / WHITE AND GREEN COLOURS THAT THE( ITALIAN) STALLION WEARS IN THE SCENE FROM THE FILM, WHERE HE WAXES HIS LAMBORGHINI CAR. THIS CLASSIC GARMENT IS LARGE IN SIZE, THOUGH IN MY OPINION WOULD EASILY FIT A MEDIUM (DEPENDING ON THE FIT YOU LIKE). THAT IS IF YOU WANT TO WEAR IT, MAYBE YOU JUST WANT TO KEEP IT, AS I HAVE, AS A MOVIE PIECE. AS A REGULAR BUYER / SELLER ON EBAY, I HAVE ONLY SEEN ONE OF THESE SUITS IN THE LAST 3 YEARS. THE TOP OCCASIONALLY CROPS UP ON EBAY, USUALLY IN A VERY WORN VINTAGE CONDITION, BUT NEVER THE FULL SUIT, NOT TO MENTION THE PRISTINE CONDITION THAT THIS PARTICULAR PIECE IS IN!!!! IT IS IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT THIS IS THE ORIGINAL 1985 PIECE AND NOT AN ADIDAS REISSUE. THE TOP WAS REISSUED IN 2005 TO COMMEMORATE THE 20TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE FILM. THIS WAS NOT THE SAME SPECIFIC DESIGN THOUGH AND FOR SOME REASON HAD BEEN ALTERED BY ADIDAS. IF ALL THIS SOUNDS LIKE I KNOW WHAT I AM TALKING ABOUT, I DO, I AM A HUGE ROCKY 4 FAN AND ALSO AN ADIDAS FREAK |
