The ABA was a colorful league, literally and figuratively, and the apparel from many of the teams is classic and iconic among basketball aficionados. Such a team was the Minnesota Pipers.
Presented here is a Rawlings size 44 warm up jacket in bold orange, with blue trim, the cool Pipers team name/logo in bold blue letters on the back, plus noting the franchise's ABA title the season before (in Pittsburgh... hey, it was the ABA... teams moved around!). The jacket shows very limited wear. The Minnesota Pipers only existed in the 1968-69 season.
The jacket is not attributed to a specific player, but one can imagine Connie Hawkins or Art Heyman looking quite regal in it!
