Representing his nation at the 1991 Canada Cup, goaltender Ed Belfour would win an Olympic gold medal just over a decade later, serving as backup to Curtis Joseph and Martin Brodeur at the 2002 Winter Games in Salt Lake City. We have Ed’s personal Roots bomber jacket that was presented to members of Team Canada following their gold medal win in 2002. An embroidered crest with gold crossed hockey sticks graces the reverse, with a smaller version of the maple leaf crest sewn onto the left breast. A Roots 2002 Salt Lake City tag is sewn onto a square black leather patch, just above a size XXL fly tag. Attractive and worn by an Olympic champion, a signed LOA from Ed Belfour will accompany.
Both crests on the jacket have "GOLD MEDAL CHAMPIONS, Salt Lake City" embroidered in gold thread beneath them. A large black felt crest with a black and gold embroidered Canadian flag is sewn onto the right sleeve, with embroidered "Men’s Gold Medal Champions" and "Women’s Gold Medal Champions" banners. A second patch is sewn below honoring the 50th anniversary of Canada’s 1952 Olympic gold medal. The left sleeve has seven black felt puck crests with gold thread embroidering for the years and host cities of six Canadian gold medals. With just light wear to the jacket, it is ready to be worn with pride.
