You'll be forgiven for slipping into lucid daydreams of Ronaldinho dancing through mesmerised defences under the Champions League lights right about now. The 2018/19 Barcelona away kit is pure victorious nostalgia.
Inspired by the bright volt away shirt from the memorable 2005/06 season, the new design celebrates a campaign where the club won the both La Liga and the Supercopa de España, as well as the Champions League. One of the most exciting and electric generations in Barcelona's illustrious history, a trait matched by the equally electric aesthetic.
“This year, we are celebrating 20 years of working with FC Barcelona,” says Pete Hoppins, Nike Football Apparel Senior Design Director. “We wanted to mark it by paying tribute to one of the most memorable shirts we have produced for them.”
The bold away design has become just as recognisable as the famous red and blue stripes of the home shirt. The shorts and socks also come in Volt, punctuated by flashes of Barça red and blue to complete a look that appears to be everywhere on the pitch. A dominant vibe that allows players to instantly pick out a teammate.
The shirt is embellished with blue and red in speed blur graphics on the sleeves, while the neck is trimmed with blue. The Catalan flag also stands proud at the rear of the neck. Sharp with a electric buzz of vibrant volt. It'll go down well this.
