A terrific pair of Muhammad Ali training worn and signed boxing shoes used by the champ during the 1970s, these are white leather boxing shoes which come above the ankle. They contain the original white laces and have 20 sets of eyelets. On each shoe on the outer part above the ankle there is a red, white and blue circular patch, which has a white lightning bolt at center surrounded by 12 white stars. There's an Everlast manufacturing label inside the tongue of each shoe and an Everlast stamp on the sole of each size 12 shoe. On the lower, outer, right shoe there is an enticing inscription, "To Lowell Riley From Muhammad Ali...Enjoy life its later than you think," dated what appears to be 6-26-77. The shoes exhibit heavy wear and were sourced from Muhammad Ali's manager Herbert Muhammad's personal photographer. It comes with a letter from Craig Hamilton of JO Sports, Inc., as well as full PSA/DNA LOA. It doesn't get better than this.
