Paul Galvin 218 Sports Shorts

Ombré print shorts with elasticated waist, pockets and mesh lining. For this collection Paul has been inspired by Irish Olympic excellence, specifically Dr. Pat OCallaghan who at the age of 23 was an Olympic gold medallist for the hammer throw and the youngest qualified practicing doctor in Ireland. After winning gold at the 1928 and 1932 Olympics, OCallaghan turned down the role of Tarzan offered to him by Hollywood movie executives to continue his medical practice. OCallaghans competition number, 218, is a key piece of storytelling for this collection as is the arch print found on the t-shirts which is taken from the arches of the LA Coliseum where he won his second gold.
