STORY
In the Beginning.
Harkening back to a time when fistfights, broken bones, and separated shoul-ders were not only expected but encouraged, we’ve found a football that cuts the mustard.
Enjoy your three yards and a cloud of dust.
1920s Pigskin (No. 6021). As accurate a reproduction of an early American football as you’ll find. In the twenties, the “old pigskin” was made of cow leather and rubber, not a pig’s bladder (that was much earlier). This has 100% leather panels and laces. The air chamber is latex. Painstakingly crafted by Woodbridge & Sons in Paris, France, an exquisite reproducer of early-era sporting equipment.
One size and shape (prolate spheroid).
Throw it. Run it. Put it in the trophy room.

STORY
Remember Football.
They’re mainly forgotten now.
Football was so brutal that in 1905, 18 players lost their lives.
Baseball remembers its heroes better. Hollywood, seemingly in cahoots, even does remakes for them.
So it’s really up to us, a few old photographs and some books nobody reads anymore. And, of course, these terrific ribbed crossover crewneck vintage football jerseys. Any contact with them, and heroes will be instantly recalled (a secret process).
William “Pudge” Walter Heffelfinger. Walter “Eckie” Eckersall. Jim Thorpe. Gus Dorais. Red Grange. Bob Zuppke (“I don’t look for tackles, I listen for them.”) Many more.
Vintage Football Jersey (No. 1131). Quilted shoulder pads with horizontal line stitching. Long sleeves styled with five-pieced panels in alternate body stripe accent colors. More patches on elbow. Great under blazers. Women, not that they have to be told, like them also. Imported.
