AFC Bournemouth 2022-23 Home Umbro Jersey – The Season of Hard-Fought Premier League Survival

The 2022-23 season saw Dean Court – or rather, the Vitality Stadium – roar once again in England's top flight. The AFC Bournemouth 2022-23 home jersey by Umbro with Dafabet as sponsor is a direct testament to a Premier League campaign where the Cherries gave their all to survive among the big names. A battle jersey, plain and simple.

What this jersey represents

The 2022-23 season marked the Cherries' second consecutive stint in the Premier League after their historic promotion from the Championship. Under a revamped technical staff – with Gary O'Neil taking the reins midway through the season after Scott Parker's departure – Bournemouth endured a nail-biting campaign in the mid-table. Every point snatched at the Vitality Stadium was golden, and this Umbro home jersey was at the heart of every battle.

The Cherries' squad boasted serious talent to hold their own: Dominic Solanke up front, a club loyalist since his arrival and a true attacking pillar, Philip Billing in midfield to add volume and drive, and Ryan Christie for his creativity. These players fought week after week with this jersey on their backs to ensure Bournemouth remained in the big leagues.

Moments etched into this jersey

Survival secured at the last minute in May 2023
Bournemouth finished the season in 15th place in the Premier League standings, securing their survival with enough margin to breathe easy. A performance not to be underestimated for a club of the Cherries' size against the giants of the English elite.

Gary O'Neil's return as manager
Appointed interim manager and then confirmed in his role, O'Neil brought a solid tactical identity back to the team. His ability to stabilize the squad in the midst of a crisis was one of the big stories of that season, and this 2022-23 Umbro jersey is its symbol.

Dominic Solanke, always there
The English striker once again carried the team on his shoulders this season, confirming his status as the undisputed attacking leader of the Cherries. Every goal from Solanke with this jersey on his back had a special flavour in the fight for survival.

Authentic vs Replica

A vintage authentic jersey is not a souvenir shop gadget. It's the version actually worn by players or fans in the stands — with the real finishes, the real fabric weight, the real flocking of the era. Nothing like the cheap reproductions that are popping up on general websites.

This one is in 9/10 condition, which in collector's language means almost impeccable. The Dafabet sponsor is present, the Umbro flocking holds perfectly, and the whole thing exudes that authenticity that cannot be manufactured. It's a jersey that has lived, but has been respected.

Vintage Size Guide

The sizes of vintage Umbro jerseys follow the cuts of their era: more fitted, less oversized than what we see in stores today. A size S from 2022-23 might correspond to a modern XS depending on your body type and how you prefer to wear the jersey. Don't rely solely on your usual size.

Before finalizing your purchase, get out a tape measure: measure your chest circumference and compare it with the actual dimensions of the jersey if available. As a general rule, go up a size if you want a comfortable, relaxed fit, or stick to your size if you like the old-school tight fit.

Why have it in your collection

The Bournemouth jersey remains a niche item in the world of collector football jerseys. The Cherries are not one of the clubs that flood the secondary market — finding a 2022-23 season item in good condition, with the right sponsor and the right Umbro cut, is already a find in itself. And that season, with all it represented sportingly, deserves a place in any serious collection of vintage Premier League jerseys.

In 9/10 condition, there really aren't many in this state on the market. Most worn jerseys from that era have taken a beating, too many washes, peeling flocking. Here, you have before you an example that has endured time without suffering too much. It's exactly the kind of piece you'll regret not grabbing when it was available.
