Ajax Home Shirt 1996/97 (L) is a classic Umbro-produced home kit from a season when Ajax finished fourth in the Eredivisie and reached the UEFA Champions League semi-finals. This Ajax shirt represents the club’s first campaign after moving to the Amsterdam Arena, reflecting the mid‑1990s era of Dutch football. Known as the Ajax 1996/97 football shirt, it remains a recognised design from a transitional period for the Amsterdam club.
The design features Ajax’s traditional white base with a bold red central panel and subtle tonal graphics within the red section. ABN AMRO appears across the front, with Umbro branding opposite the Ajax crest. A polo collar with a V-neck insert and striped detailing on the collar and sleeve cuffs add period character. The clean layout and sponsor presentation make this Umbro Ajax jersey a notable Ajax vintage shirt from the late‑1990s Eredivisie era.
