Walkouts ADO Den Haag signed football shirts and memorabilia

About

ADO Den Haag, based in The Hague, Netherlands, are a professional football club whose signed shirts and curated memorabilia feature at Walkouts. The club shares its matchday identity with supporters at the stadium commonly known as the Bingoal Stadion, and the stadium name is used as ADO Den Haag Stadium for European fixtures under UEFA rules.

The stadium was completed on 28 July 2007, a milestone that transferred home match action from the smaller Zuiderpark to a modern 15,000 capacity venue designed by Zwarts & Jansma Architects, finished in 2007. That modern roof and seating bowl established the club’s contemporary collector stories, from opening-day retail runs to special edition match programmes and framed shirts issued around the move.

The Bingoal Stadion has been used for football and field hockey, hosting the Bingoal Stadion nameplate during domestic fixtures and the 2014 Hockey World Cup as a venue highlight. It also served as a temporary home for AZ Alkmaar in the final months of 2019 while AFAS Stadion underwent repairs, an event that created unusual provenance for match and retail shirts worn or sold there.

Collectors value anniversary releases tied to stadium milestones, for example commemorative items connected to the 2007 completion and opening. These post-1970 anniversary shirts are chased because they mark the shift from Zuiderpark to a modern ground, tie to opening ceremonies, and sometimes include limited print runs or event-specific sleeve patches that separate them from regular season retail.

Season and match magnets for ADO Den Haag include shirts associated with the period when the stadium hosted outside tenants and high-profile fixtures, most notably the late 2019 window when AZ Alkmaar played home matches there, and cup ties staged under the stadium’s changing sponsorship names. Shirts from these specific matches and short runs are sought because they can be traced to a narrow set of fixtures and sometimes carry match programmes, ticket stubs, or stadium-stamped provenance.

Away shirts and contrasting colourways are a core part of the club’s collecting story; many fans prize the alternative kits produced for cup and European ties where the club’s branding appears under the ADO Den Haag Stadium name. Signed retail shirts, not only match-worn items, form a large portion of the market; early retail runs, player-issue variants and region-specific releases sold via the fanshop or at stadium stores are explicitly collected, often accompanied by a provenance statement or signed player inscriptions.

When assessing signed ADO Den Haag retail pieces look for clear provenance cues and image verification, such as exact photo proof of the signing, which increases a shirt’s desirability among historians and fans. Free worldwide shipping is offered on many authenticated items and Walkouts helps surface shirts tied to seasons like 2018-19 and 2019-20 with visible links to the Bingoal Stadion, Zuiderpark memorabilia and the AFAS Stadion temporary period.

Legends & Leadership

Aad Mansveld, Lex Schoenmaker, Stanley Menzo are remembered as key legend players for the club, each associated with the club's identity in the 1970s, the 1970s, and the late 1980s respectively and celebrated for long-term service on the pitch.

Regi Blinker, Piet de Visser are acknowledged as influential figures from the 1990s and the 1970s respectively whose work in their eras left a lasting imprint on the organisation and talent pipeline.

Eljero Elia, John van den Brom are regarded as recent key players linked with the club in the early 2010s and the mid-2000s respectively and noted for their contributions during more contemporary seasons.

Martin Jol is singled out as a legendary manager associated with later professional phases of the club and remembered for his managerial impact in the early 2000s.

Stadium

The club plays at the stadium widely known as Bingoal Stadion, though for UEFA fixtures it appears under the alternate name ADO Den Haag Stadium because of sponsorship rules. The venue seats about 15,000 spectators and serves both football and field hockey, having hosted the 2014 Hockey World Cup. The building's architecture is the work of Zwarts & Jansma Architects and the ground briefly sheltered AZ Alkmaar during roof repairs in 2019. Local matchdays are defined by a close, city-centred atmosphere and rivalries with the nation’s bigger clubs have historically influenced attendance patterns and the feel of derby occasions.
