Previously sports uniforms were simple numbers on shirts with drab colors. The apparel had a major influence on the future of sports fashion and changed the way it was looked at from that point on.”
NEW YORK, NEW YORK, UNITED STATES, June 14, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ -- 30 years ago the tie-dyed Slam Dunking Skeleton Olympic uniforms became an international sensation on the world stage of the 1992 Barcelona Summer Games. The iconic Tie-Dyed uniform tees were worn by the Lithuanian Men's Olympic Basketball Team when they received their bronze medals on the Olympic podium, becoming part of sports history and one of the most unusual and memorable moments of 1992 Olympic sports.— Mike Thompson
Created by NYC street artist Greg Speirs, the Slammin’ Skullman® Olympic uniforms became a legendary piece of Olympics history and forever part of Olympic folklore.
At that moment the artist’s Slammin Skeleton® & Lithuania Tie Dye® Brands were launched. The brands have enjoyed longevity of three decades marketed through the Skullman.com website continuously since that 1992 event.
The Lithuanian Slam-Dunking Skullman® represented the artist's interpretation of a team rising from nothing, "Like a Phoenix from the ashes to slam-dunking a flaming basketball to bronze victory. It's not a dead skeleton, but represents rebirth and a new life. It was not only a victory in Olympic sports, but it was as if it were a triumph over communism itself," recalled Speirs, featured in the 2012 basketball documentary movie, "The Other Dream Team" http://www.imdb.com/name/nm3998173/

Skullman ® was "enshrined" at the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame in Springfield, Mass. on Dec.7th 1993, living in infamy becoming the first & only cartoon character to be "enshrined" in any Hall of Fame:

“The story about Greg’s famous Slammin Skeleton apparel impacted the popular culture & became a major news event taking its place in sports history adding excitement to the development of sports uniforms. Sports and Olympics uniforms previous to this event have been simple numbers on shirts with drab or grey colors. The apparel was just so unexpected, colorful and way out and the first time a basketball was depicted with a flame on it.
It had a major influence on the future of sports apparel & fashion and changed the way it was looked at from that point on.” Mike Thompson of Slammin Sports.
