Retro Boxing Gloves
$429.00
These limited edition Retro Heritage Leather Boxing Gloves are crafted from 100% genuine leather, featuring a traditional cotton in-fill that provides generous padding, reminiscent of the iconic gloves from the 1950s to 1970s.
While these gloves are fully functional and suitable for light play, due to the delicate nature of the artwork print, regular use will cause wear.
Designed to be used as a statement piece or collectible.
The gloves feature Kehinde Wiley's Portrait of Nelly Moudime II (2020), a painting from the body of work that Kehinde developed in New York in early 2019, exploring the continued resonance of 1990s hip hop culture in the city.
The background pattern references an 18th-century British textile design by William Kilburn, depicting mixed flowers and their trailing roots.
Features:
- Individually hand-crafted using 100% genuine full-grain cowhide leather
- One size fits most
- 100% natural cotton in-fill for traditional oversized padding
- Double stitched seams for enhanced durability
- Heat embossed Kehinde Wiley signature on wrist
- Lace up with strings
Net proceeds from your purchase support the artist in residence program Black Rock Sénégal, founded by Wiley in 2019.
