BRUCE LEE - Bruce Lee's Vintage Boxing Gloves - Bruce Lee's vintage boxing gloves. Lee wore the lace-up gloves in sparring sessions with senior instructors and students. An avid student of various fighting disciplines, he incorporated boxing into his training and martial arts philosophy.

The 8-ounce gloves are made of padded red leather and feature stitched orange leather piping around the cuffs and thumbs. Each glove has 12 eyelets into which white nylon laces are threaded in a criss-cross pattern. A label featuring the MacGregor logo and "Golden Gloves" is stitched to the wrist of each glove. Lee's initials are handwritten on the inside of the right glove.

Accompanying the gloves is a 2015 letter of authenticity from Lee's student and best friend, the late Sifu Taky Kimura. The gloves exhibit minor signs of wear, including stains and scuffs. Dimensions: (pair) 10.5" x 4.75" x 8" (27 cm x 12 cm x 20 cm)

Estimate: $8,000 - 16,000
