Ajax 2016 Polo Shirt

This navy blue Ajax polo shirt comes from the club’s lifestyle apparel rather than its on-pitch teamwear. The understated design has no prominent commercial sponsor or large Adidas branding, giving it a more casual look while retaining its connection to Ajax. Its dark blue colour makes it easy to wear away from football, and the club association places it within the everyday clothing produced for supporters during the 2010s.

The year 2016 was the beginning of a memorable period for Ajax under Peter Bosz. During the 2016/17 season, the team finished second in the Eredivisie with 81 points, scoring 79 goals in 34 matches. In Europe, Ajax made an impressive run to the Europa League final after progressing through the group stage and eliminating Legia Warsaw, FC Copenhagen, Schalke 04 and Lyon. The young side featured players including Matthijs de Ligt, Davinson Sánchez, Kasper Dolberg and Davy Klaassen. Ajax ultimately lost the final 2–0 to Manchester United in Stockholm, but the campaign marked the emergence of a talented generation that would attract attention across European football.

This polo is size medium and graded excellent, with slight pilling on the lower back of the shirt. It offers a more understated way to represent Ajax than a match shirt, with a simple navy colourway and lifestyle styling that suits casual wear as well as a vintage football clothing collection. This polo shirt is part of the streetwear collection at Football Shirt Paradise, containing items from football clubs that were not made for the pitch.
