This is another piece from The Olympic Museum Collection, commemorating the Soviet delegation at the 1980 Summer Olympics in Moscow (Games of the XXII Olympiad).

Unlike the knit quarter-zip you looked at earlier, this version is modeled directly after the official track suits worn by Soviet athletes and officials during the Games.

Design & Visual Details

Historical Context

At the 1980 Moscow Games, the host country's delegation dominated the medal count, taking home 195 total medals (including 80 golds). Track jackets in this bold red, black, and gold Soviet aesthetic remain among the most iconic and sought-after retro national team designs in Olympic history.
