The story behind this shirt

Bendtner signed for Nottingham Forest as a free agent in September 2016 and left for Rosenborg in March 2017, spending only the first part of the 2016/17 Championship season at the City Ground. He wore number 14 there. Norwegian collectors tend to know him better for what came next at Rosenborg, which is part of why this particular chapter of his career is under collected.

Frequently asked questions

Is this an original Adidas shirt or a modern reproduction?
It is an original Adidas shirt from the period, not a reproduction or a fan made copy. Every shirt we list is inspected against manufacturer labelling, construction and badge application before it goes on sale.

What does a condition rating of 8/10 mean?
Very good. Worn but well kept, minor age related wear only. We grade every shirt on a ten point scale where 10 is unworn and 7 is honest vintage wear. Photographs show the actual item you receive.

Was the Nicklas Bendtner nameset original to the shirt?
No. The nameset was applied by TheFootballIdiots using period appropriate lettering. We state this openly on every shirt we letter ourselves so you always know what you are buying.

What size is this and how does it fit?
Size L. Sizing on football shirts varies considerably by manufacturer and by decade, and shirts from the 1990s generally run larger than modern equivalents. Measurements are available on request before you order.

Can I see this shirt in person before buying?
Yes. Our store in Stavanger, Norway holds our stock and you are welcome to try shirts on. Stavanger is our only physical location.

How long does delivery take?
Delivery within Norway normally takes 1 til 3 virkedager. International shipping is available and delivery times vary by destination.

Is there more than one of these available?
No. This is a single item. Vintage and match issue shirts are sourced individually and are not restocked once sold.
