Up for sale is a rare, museum-quality pair of Vintage Champion Model 287 SUPER TIGER Handball Gloves. These are New Old Stock (NOS) and remain in their original factory packaging. Finding the 287 model in the "Super Tiger" trim is extremely difficult, especially in this pristine condition.

Why the "Super Tiger" 287 is the Gold Standard:

• Premium Wild Deerskin: Unlike standard goatskin or cowhide, wild deerskin is naturally "tacky" for a superior grip on the ball. It is exceptionally soft and provides a "second-skin" feel.

• Washable Performance: These gloves were engineered to stay soft. Even after heavy use and sweat, they are designed to be washed and will dry supple rather than stiffening up like lower-grade leathers.

• Model 287 Heritage: The 287 is legendary among handball enthusiasts for its perfect anatomical fit and court-proven durability.

• Made in the USA: Proudly manufactured by the Champion Glove Co. in Des Moines, Iowa, during the height of American athletic manufacturing.

Condition Report:

• Gloves: Never worn. The leather is soft, supple, and shows no signs of dry rot or aging. The elastic at the wrists is still firm and snappy.

• Box: Includes the original "Super Tiger" display box. The graphics are vibrant and clear. Only minor shelf wear/scuffing consistent with age.

• Storage: Stored in a smoke-free, climate-controlled environment. No "musty" vintage odors.

Whether you are a competitive player looking for the best gloves ever made or a collector of vintage sporting memorabilia, these are a top-tier find.
