A children's jersey — Boys M size — that nonetheless tells a great story, that of a club that has dominated its opponents in the \u003cstrong\u003eGreek Super League\u003c\/strong\u003e for decades and continues to make the stands of the \u003cstrong\u003eGeorgios Karaiskakis Stadium\u003c\/strong\u003e tremble.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"font-size:1.4em;font-weight:bold;margin-top:28px;margin-bottom:12px;\"\u003eJersey details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"line-height:2;margin-bottom:20px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeason:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2017-2018\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClub:\u003c\/strong\u003e Olympiacos FC (Piraeus, Greece)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Home\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKit Manufacturer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Adidas\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8\/10\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e Boys M\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 jersey represents\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"line-height:1.8;margin-bottom:14px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOlympiacos FC\u003c\/strong\u003e is not an ordinary football club. It is a Greek national institution, the most successful club in the country, with over \u003cstrong\u003e47 Greek championships\u003c\/strong\u003e to its name. In \u003cstrong\u003e2017-18\u003c\/strong\u003e, the club went through a period of rebuilding and reassertion, seeking to maintain its dominance in the \u003cstrong\u003eGreek Super League\u003c\/strong\u003e against the rise of rivals such as PAOK and AEK Athens. That season marked a break in the red and white's near-monopoly on Greek football — PAOK ultimately won the title — but Olympiacos remained a formidable force in Balkan football.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"line-height:1.8;margin-bottom:20px;\"\u003eOn the pitch, players like \u003cstrong\u003eKostas Fortounis\u003c\/strong\u003e, the club's soul and emblematic captain, continued to proudly wear the colors of Piraeus. The Greek international attacking midfielder perfectly embodies Olympiacos' identity: technical, combative, attached to his roots. Alongside him, players like \u003cstrong\u003ePanagiotis Retsos\u003c\/strong\u003e, then a dazzling young talent who would soon join Bayer Leverkusen for a record sum, show that Olympiacos also knows how to develop and reveal high-level players on a European scale.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"font-size:1.4em;font-weight:bold;margin-top:28px;margin-bottom:12px;\"\u003eMoments etched in this jersey\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"line-height:1.8;margin-bottom:12px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReturn to the Europa League 2017-18\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nOlympiacos participated in the group stage of the \u003cstrong\u003e2017-18 UEFA Europa League\u003c\/strong\u003e, keeping the Greek flag flying in European competition.

His level of play was such that he joined \u003cstrong\u003eBayer Leverkusen\u003c\/strong\u003e in the summer of 2018 for approximately 12 million euros, a record transfer for a Greek player of that age.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"line-height:1.8;margin-bottom:20px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe break in the monopoly — pivotal season\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nAfter years of near-absolute domination, the \u003cstrong\u003e2017-18\u003c\/strong\u003e season was when Olympiacos saw PAOK Thessaloniki snatch the Greek championship title from them. An electroshock for the Piraeus club, which would have to rebuild and bounce back — as it always has throughout its history.\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;\"\u003eAn \u003cstrong\u003eauthentic vintage jersey\u003c\/strong\u003e like this one is a piece worn or designed to be worn on the field, with technical materials, careful finishes, and a different look from mass-market replicas. The embroidery is sharper, the fabric more technical, and the manufacturing details immediately tell you that you are dealing with a real match jersey or an authentic version — not a copy intended for the stands.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"line-height:1.8;margin-bottom:20px;\"\u003eWith a \u003cstrong\u003econdition rating of 8\/10\u003c\/strong\u003e, this \u003cstrong\u003eOlympiacos Adidas 2017-18 jersey\u003c\/strong\u003e is in excellent condition for a piece nearly seven years old. No significant wear to report, the prints are clear, the fabric is intact.

Adidas has its own size charts which may vary slightly from one collection to another, but generally, an Adidas Boys M from this era corresponds to a chest circumference of approximately 68-72 cm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"line-height:1.8;margin-bottom:20px;\"\u003eBefore ordering, take the time to measure the chest circumference and back length of the future wearer. A poorly fitting jersey, even in excellent condition, loses its charm. For collector use or for framing, size matters little — but for wearing, be precise in your measurements.

The Piraeus club remains underrepresented in collections compared to its status as a giant of Mediterranean football. Owning an \u003cstrong\u003eOlympiacos Adidas home jersey 2017-18\u003c\/strong\u003e in Boys M size means having a piece that speaks of a pivotal season, a generation of talented Greek players, and a quality equipment partnership between Adidas and one of Greece's most emblematic clubs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"line-height:1.8;margin-bottom:20px;\"\u003eAnd in this condition — \u003cstrong\u003e8\/10\u003c\/strong\u003e — it's frankly not common. Children's jerseys often suffered more than adult versions, worn in playgrounds, neighborhood matches, washed a hundred times. This one has clearly been cherished. For an Olympiacos fan, for a collector of \u003cstrong\u003evintage Adidas football jerseys\u003c\/strong\u003e, or simply for someone who loves Greek football and its great European nights, this is a meaningful acquisition.\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\/Olympiacos_F.C.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"\u003eOlympiacos FC - 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 — Jersey History\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 have a football-loving kid who deserves a real European club jersey with history, or if you are looking for a rare Greek collector's item for your display cabinet — this Olympiacos 2017-18 Adidas jersey won't wait long.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Other European Clubs","offers":[{"title":"Mr. BOYS","offer_id":54028817727763,"sku":"372501","price":14.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/4839\/3235\/files\/eng_pm_2017-18-OLYMPIACOS-SHIRT-M-BOYS-372501_1.jpg?v=1775687395","url":"https:\/\/supporterid.com\/en\/products\/2017-18-olympiacos-shirt","provider":"SUPPORTER ID®","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
