Homage released their One Chance tee, which pays tribute to the achievements of elite track star Jesse Owens.

The tee features an image of Owens taking off out of the blocks and the phrase, “One Chance is All You Need,” underneath. The phrase is a quote from Owens after he was asked about the four gold medals (100 meter sprint, 200 meter sprint, long jump, 4 X 100 meter relay) he won at the 1936 Olympics in Berlin.

If you’re familiar with your history, you’ll recognize that the 1936 Berlin Olympics occurred just before World War II, which makes Owens’ achievements even more awesome. Owens, being an African American, dominated right smack dab in front of Adolf Hitler’s face.

One Chance is an online exclusive. Get it for $28 via Homage.
