Kansas City Chiefs Jacket Appraisal

Vintage Kansas City Chiefs NFL Parka/Jacket

This is a vintage Kansas City Chiefs hooded parka or jacket, predominantly red with significant yellow accents, consistent with the team's official colors. The jacket features a full-length snap-button closure down the front, with five visible white snap buttons. The exterior appears to be made from a durable, possibly nylon or polyester, water-resistant fabric, typical of sports outerwear from its era. The hood is yellow and features yellow drawstring cords with light-colored wooden or plastic toggles. The sleeves are primarily red from the shoulder to the elbow, transitioning to yellow panels from the bicep to the wrist, with red ribbed cuffs. The body of the jacket also has yellow panels on the sides, extending to red ribbed waistband. On the left chest, the jacket displays the embroidered 'KANSAS CITY CHIEFS' logo with the stylized arrowhead. An official NFL shield logo patch is sewn onto the upper left sleeve. The interior lining, though not fully visible, appears to be a light color, possibly white or cream. The jacket suggests a style period from the late 1980s to early 1990s, given the '30 years or more' estimate, which aligns with the design elements and the NFL logo style of that period. The overall condition appears to be excellent, as described as 'Great shape' and 'Like New,' with no visible tears, stains, or significant wear on the exterior fabric, embroidery, or elastic cuffs/waistband, indicating careful storage and minimal use. The stitching appears consistent and well-executed, indicative of standard sportswear manufacturing quality.
