Description

Team USA uniform worn by athletes during the opening ceremony of the Los Angeles 1984 Summer Olympics, and an official red ceremonial blazer that was presented to American medalists following the close of the XXIII Olympiad. Both the uniform and the blazer were worn by Diane Moyer, a goalkeeper for the Team USA women’s field hockey team that won a bronze medal at the LA Games. Made by Levi’s, the official outfitter of Team USA, the patriotically colored opening ceremony outfit consists of pants, size 32 x 31, and a zippered jacket, women’s size large, with button snaps to cuffs and collar, and an embroidered “1984 USA Olympic Team” patch to the left chest.

The red blazer, size 12, also made by Levi's, features gold-tone Olympic buttons to cuffs and front, an embroidered Team USA patch to the left chest, and the liner bears a repeating “USA” with Olympic rings pattern. Moyer and her fellow Olympic medalists wore this style of red blazer during the ‘U.S. Olympic Medal Winners Tribute,’ a five-day, four-city tribute tour that visited New York City, Orlando, Dallas, and Washington, D.C. While in the nation’s capital, Moyer wore this blazer when she met President and First Lady Ronald and Nancy Reagan; a printed photo of their meeting, which shows Moyer wearing the blazer, is included. In overall fine condition.
