Teal 956 Posted September 26, 2018 (edited) It begins... Barcelona home. I also have it on good authority that Barca away will be Yellow. In more 19/20 kit news, Inter Milan away will be white/black with "Tropical Twist" (mint green) socks.

Bosston Official 1 Posted September 26, 2018 WTF IS THAT, DID NIKE RUN OUT OF IDEAS, BECAUSE THAT LOOKS LIKE THE CROATIAN KIT WITH A DIFFERENT SHADE OF BLUE AND PATCHES ON IT 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MJWalker45 5,796 Posted September 26, 2018 They do this from time to time to shake things up. Reportedly it's based on some of the flags that the fans wave at the Nou Camp. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pepis21 2,174 Posted September 26, 2018 Excatly this kit is based on flags not Croatia. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Magic Dynasty 2,418 Posted September 26, 2018 “Designed by Rakitic” In all seriousness though, I think as a one-year-only thing it’s fine. I like variety every once in a while. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Digby 6,614 Posted September 27, 2018 Barcelona's modernizing their crest for next year, too. Blessedly minimalist on the logo graphic explainer copy. 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That looks like a concept, not something they would actually do. Plus, look at the top right - it has the actual current logo there. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It’s not a concept, the club announced the updated crest (which is still pending member approval) earlier today: There’s also a new exclusive font that hasn’t been fully revealed yet, but can be seen below the crest in the image in that first tweet. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pepis21 2,174 Posted September 27, 2018 They've got a deal with Konami and now might look like generic team from PES. I hope it gonna be drop like Leeds United crest. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gothamite 24,115 Posted September 28, 2018 Here’s a great video showing their crest evolution: 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gothamite 24,115 Posted September 28, 2018 Old: I like this update. Losing the interior black is a huge improvement, as is shifting the ball up. The thicker stroke on the ball makes it more legible at smaller sizes. I kind of hate to lose the letters, but when you’re that famous you don’t really need the initials. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
UnclearInitial 1,628 Posted September 28, 2018 It’s a very solid update, much cleaner and everyone recognizes the Barcelona crest without the FCB which could stand for loads of other clubs. My main gripe is that the red stripes would be a bit darker, after all they’re the blaugrana, not the blauvermell 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Digby 6,614 Posted September 28, 2018 Agreed with all of the above -- they've always been good about keeping the essence of their crest while staying updated for modern times and this is no different. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WBeltz 709 Posted October 3, 2018 I like when teams who have had such a classic design (like Barcelona) mix it up a bit, because you can only do so much with vertical stripes on a jersey, so I'm all for Inter Milan and Barca doing this. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Teal 956 Posted October 13, 2018 Great news! Barca will be in teal in 19/20. "Cabana" will be Barca's third kit. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
upperV03 7,653 Posted October 18, 2018 According to Mundo Deportivo, Barça’s secondary kit next year will bring back the iconic yellow shirt with blaugrana sash from the late ‘70’s (though possibly with the direction of the sash flipped): I hope they break up the sash for the sponsor logo, like they did with the vertical stripe on the ‘08-09 away shirt, but nonetheless this should be a fantastic and classic look for them. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Conrad. 2,897 Posted October 18, 2018 That 19/20 Barça road kit, if true (and if the sash is broken up for the sponsor), is an automatic buy for me. Beautiful. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WBeltz 709 Posted October 19, 2018 Looks like MLS will be allowing sleeve sponsors starting the next league year (2019) via the Athletic. https://theathletic.com/598815/2018/10/18/ Personally, it isn't something I'm too keen on, but it was bound to happen sooner or later, and money does talk. It'll be interesting to see how many teams jump on it immediately once the new season starts. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
