The Rams finished that campaign in a respectable but frustrating position, far from the play-offs that seemed within reach. Championship football is unforgiving — and Derby knows a thing or two about it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"line-height:1.8;margin-bottom:20px;\"\u003eOn the dugout that season, \u003cstrong\u003eSteve McClaren\u003c\/strong\u003e took over the club midway through, before \u003cstrong\u003eGary Rowett\u003c\/strong\u003e stepped in to steady the ship. On the field, players like \u003cstrong\u003eTom Ince\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eNick Blackman\u003c\/strong\u003e, and the combative midfielder \u003cstrong\u003eGeorge Thorne\u003c\/strong\u003e were part of the squad defending these colors. A team with character, typical of the Championship, with its highs and lows, and its unwavering fan base.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"font-size:1.4em;font-weight:bold;margin-top:28px;margin-bottom:12px;\"\u003eMoments etched in this shirt\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"line-height:1.8;margin-bottom:12px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA Championship always so brutal\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe 2016-17 season confirmed that the English second division is one of Europe's most competitive leagues.

The Rams don't just want to make up the numbers; they want to go up, and that mindset permeates every fiber of this shirt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"line-height:1.8;margin-bottom:20px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePride Park, a home fortress\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePride Park Stadium\u003c\/strong\u003e, with its more than 33,000 seats, remains one of the most impressive venues in the Championship.

The cut, the finishes, the fabric weight, the embroidery details: everything that differentiates an original from a copy is visible and tangible to the touch. \u003cstrong\u003eUmbro shirts from this period\u003c\/strong\u003e are recognized for their quality craftsmanship, with attention to technical details that makes them strong and durable pieces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"line-height:1.8;margin-bottom:20px;\"\u003eThis one is in \u003cstrong\u003e10\/10 — NEW\u003c\/strong\u003e condition. This means it comes from that period without a single imperfection, any flocking intact if applicable, perfect stitching, the \u003cstrong\u003eJust Eat\u003c\/strong\u003e sponsor as legible as day one. For a \u003cstrong\u003ecollector's shirt\u003c\/strong\u003e of this age, it's truly exceptional. This kind of condition doesn't come around often.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"font-size:1.4em;font-weight:bold;margin-top:28px;margin-bottom:12px;\"\u003eVintage size guide\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"line-height:1.8;margin-bottom:14px;\"\u003eBe aware, this is a crucial point that many collectors forget: \u003cstrong\u003evintage sizes from the 2010s\u003c\/strong\u003e do not correspond to modern sizes. An Umbro \u003cstrong\u003esize S\u003c\/strong\u003e from that era often fits like a modern XS according to contemporary standards. The cut was more fitted, closer to the body, in the tradition of game shirts of that generation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"line-height:1.8;margin-bottom:20px;\"\u003eBefore confirming your order, get out a tape measure. Measure your chest at the widest point and compare with the shirt's flat measurements. Basic rule: add 5 to 8 cm to your measurement for a comfortable fit. If you're aiming for a loose fit or want to wear it over a layer, go up a size. A well-fitted \u003cstrong\u003evintage Derby County shirt\u003c\/strong\u003e in size S looks great — ill-fitting, it spoils everything.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"font-size:1.4em;font-weight:bold;margin-top:28px;margin-bottom:12px;\"\u003eWhy have it in your collection\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"line-height:1.8;margin-bottom:14px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDerby County\u003c\/strong\u003e is one of those English clubs with an immense past — two First Division titles in the 70s, a rich history, deep popular roots — but which has lived for years with the frustration of the Championship. This paradoxically makes it a fascinating collection: the shirts from this period tell a story of struggle, resistance, and local pride. The \u003cstrong\u003eJust Eat\u003c\/strong\u003e sponsor precisely and uniquely dates this shirt, giving it undeniable documentary character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"line-height:1.8;margin-bottom:20px;\"\u003eThere aren't many in this condition. A \u003cstrong\u003e2016-17 Umbro Derby County shirt\u003c\/strong\u003e in NEW condition is the kind of piece that quickly disappears from serious collectors' shelves. 10\/10 condition guarantees an item that hasn't suffered from time, that can be displayed, framed, or proudly worn at Pride Park if you ever visit.
