EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic training robe worn by the legendary Muhammad Ali at the renowned 5th Street Gym in Miami Beach, Florida, back in 1964. Crafted from white terry cloth, this Everlast robe holds immense historical significance as it was donned by Ali during his ascent to becoming the World Heavyweight Boxing Champion that very same year. The exquisite details of this garment are truly remarkable. The robe features a terry cloth belt and bears a faded label on its front right panel proudly displaying the brand name "EVERLAST/MADE IN U. S. A. /Made Expressly for MUHAMMED ALI" in worn black letters. On the back, sewn with large black letters, is Muhammad Ali's illustrious name: "MUHAMMED/ALI". Beyond its aesthetic appeal lies a deeper cultural heritage. This artifact represents an era when African American athletes like Ali were breaking barriers and making history within their respective sports. It symbolizes resilience, determination, and triumph over adversity. Preserved within the National Museum of African American History and Culture (NMAAHC), this robe serves as a tangible reminder of Ali's indomitable spirit and his significant contributions to both boxing and civil rights activism. As we gaze upon this photograph print captured by Heritage Images, we cannot help but be transported back to that vibrant time in history when Muhammad Ali reigned supreme inside those hallowed walls of Dundee's 5th St Gym - forever etching his name into sporting legendry.
