Under the direction of \u003cstrong\u003eJupp Heynckes\u003c\/strong\u003e, the Madrid club played an absolutely stunning European campaign, driven by a collective ambition that the Bernabéu had not known for decades.

And then \u003cstrong\u003ePredrag Mijatović\u003c\/strong\u003e, the discreet Montenegrin who would enter legend in Amsterdam.

It is a textile piece from the era, produced with the manufacturing techniques of the 90s, which actually existed in locker rooms, on pitches, in stands. The difference can be felt to the touch, seen in the cut, read in the manufacturing details — the inner labels, the finishes, the density of the fabric.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"line-height:1.8;margin-bottom:20px;\"\u003eThis \u003cstrong\u003eReal Madrid 1997-98 away shirt\u003c\/strong\u003e shows an \u003cstrong\u003e8\/10 condition with slightly worn flocking\u003c\/strong\u003e.

A \u003cstrong\u003evintage size M\u003c\/strong\u003e from that era often equates to a contemporary S or XS — the cuts were much more fitted, shoulders less wide, lengths different.

Finding an \u003cstrong\u003eauthentic away jersey from this season\u003c\/strong\u003e, with the original TEKA sponsor intact and in such clean condition, has become a real treasure hunt.
