Known as the "Round Mound of Rebound" early in his career with the Philadelphia 76ers, Charles Barkley was able to slim down and add more than just rebounding to his game. As he matured into an NBA superstar, Barkley became a prolific scorer and earned a spot on the NBA's 50 Greatest Players List. On the left front tail of the jersey is the year tag "89" and below is a label reading "2"LB" denoting two extra inches in body length. Both these labels are made of black Swiss embroidered stitch.
