This \u003cstrong\u003eAdidas away kit for Olympique Lyonnais\u003c\/strong\u003e, with its clearly visible \u003cstrong\u003eHyundai\u003c\/strong\u003e sponsor on the chest, is a direct testament to a pivotal period in the Rhone club's recent history.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"font-size:1.4em;font-weight:bold;margin-top:28px;margin-bottom:12px;\"\u003eKit details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"line-height:2;margin-bottom:20px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeason:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2016-2017\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClub:\u003c\/strong\u003e Olympique Lyonnais\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Away\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKit manufacturer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Adidas\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSponsor:\u003c\/strong\u003e HYUNDAI\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9\/10\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"font-size:1.4em;font-weight:bold;margin-top:28px;margin-bottom:12px;\"\u003eWhat this kit represents\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"line-height:1.8;margin-bottom:14px;\"\u003eThe 2016-17 season marks a turning point for \u003cstrong\u003eOlympique Lyonnais\u003c\/strong\u003e. After years of absolute domination in Ligue 1 in the 2000s, followed by a relative lean period, Jean-Michel Aulas's club sought to rediscover its place at the top. \u003cstrong\u003eBruno Génésio\u003c\/strong\u003e, promoted to head coach after Hubert Fournier's departure, inherited a quality squad but a dressing room that needed mental rebuilding. This Adidas away kit was precisely the one worn during this quiet but determined reconstruction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"line-height:1.8;margin-bottom:20px;\"\u003eOn the field, Lyon could rely on a strong core. \u003cstrong\u003eAlexandre Lacazette\u003c\/strong\u003e, then Ligue 1's top scorer, carried the attack on his shoulders with formidable efficiency. Alongside him, \u003cstrong\u003eNabil Fekir\u003c\/strong\u003e, returning from injury, gradually rediscovered his dazzling form. In defense, \u003cstrong\u003eMapou Yanga-Mbiwa\u003c\/strong\u003e brought his experience, while \u003cstrong\u003eMaxime Gonalons\u003c\/strong\u003e, the emblematic captain, embodied the spirit of the dressing room in midfield. It was with these men that this kit came to life on the pitches of France and Europe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"font-size:1.4em;font-weight:bold;margin-top:28px;margin-bottom:12px;\"\u003eMemorable moments etched into this kit\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"line-height:1.8;margin-bottom:12px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Europa League, a stage away from Gerland\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nIn 2016-17, OL competed in the \u003cstrong\u003eAdidas Europa League\u003c\/strong\u003e and progressed well in the competition, playing several away matches in this very kit. These European trips immediately made this jersey a collector's item, worn on pitches far from the city of Lyon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"line-height:1.8;margin-bottom:12px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLacazette on his way to the Ligue 1 record\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThat season, \u003cstrong\u003eAlexandre Lacazette\u003c\/strong\u003e scored 28 goals in the league, setting a Ligue 1 record long remembered by fans. Several of his away goals were scored in this kit, giving it clear symbolic significance for any French football enthusiast of that era.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"line-height:1.8;margin-bottom:20px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eParc OL, the new Rhone temple\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe previous season had seen the inauguration of \u003cstrong\u003eParc Olympique Lyonnais\u003c\/strong\u003e in Décines-Charpieu, and 2016-17 was the first full season in this brand-new stadium. Away matches, played in this away kit, represent the other side of the coin for an OL undergoing infrastructural and sporting transformation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"font-size:1.4em;font-weight:bold;margin-top:28px;margin-bottom:12px;\"\u003eAuthentic vs. Replica\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"line-height:1.8;margin-bottom:14px;\"\u003eA \u003cstrong\u003evintage authentic jersey\u003c\/strong\u003e has nothing to do with a replica sold in supermarkets at the time. The cut is different, the materials are different, the finishes are different. What you hold in your hands — or what you order here — is the version worn or very closely worn by the real football players of that season, not a watered-down version for the general public. The stitching, the original flocking, the inner labels: everything speaks of authenticity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"line-height:1.8;margin-bottom:20px;\"\u003eThis one shows a \u003cstrong\u003econdition of 9\/10\u003c\/strong\u003e, which is frankly rare for a jersey that is now several years old. No discoloration, no holes, no abnormal wear. It is clearly in a condition that allows it to be worn proudly or displayed without shame in a serious collection. This type of jersey in this condition is not common.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"font-size:1.4em;font-weight:bold;margin-top:28px;margin-bottom:12px;\"\u003eVintage Sizing Guide\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"line-height:1.8;margin-bottom:14px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVintage football jerseys\u003c\/strong\u003e — and even more so those from the 2010s with the Adidas cuts of the time — fit differently from current jerseys. Models from this generation were generally more fitted, less oversized than modern cuts. A 2016-17 XL often corresponds to a current L, sometimes a wide L depending on your body shape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"line-height:1.8;margin-bottom:20px;\"\u003eBefore confirming your order, take your tape measure and measure your chest width flat, then compare it with the actual dimensions of the jersey that you will find in our technical specifications.

This is exactly the type of jersey that, in ten years, will be even harder to find in good condition — because the season is symbolic and because true collectors have already understood this. \u003cstrong\u003eLigue 1 collector's jerseys\u003c\/strong\u003e from this Adidas generation are increasingly sought after on the secondary market.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"line-height:1.8;margin-bottom:20px;\"\u003eThere aren't many in this condition. A \u003cstrong\u003e9\/10 on a vintage away kit\u003c\/strong\u003e is practically flawless — it's not one that has been left in the back of a garage for eight years. It's a specimen that has been carefully preserved, and it shows. For a serious collector or an OL fan who wants something tangible to link to this pivotal season, it's a clear opportunity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"font-size:1.4em;font-weight:bold;margin-top:28px;margin-bottom:12px;\"\u003eTo go further\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"line-height:2.2;margin-bottom:16px;\"\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Olympique_Lyonnais\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"\u003eLyon - Wikipedia\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.footballkitarchive.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"\u003eFootball Kit Archive - History of kits\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.ligue1.fr\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"\u003eLigue 1 - Official website\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.uefa.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"\u003eUEFA - European Football\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"font-style:italic;line-height:1.8;\"\u003eIf you've followed OL for years or collect Adidas jerseys from this decade, this one ticks all the boxes.
