Nike ignite more retro fire for 2019/20 as the Swoosh launch the new Barcelona third shirt in teal green. Taking inspiration from the 1996/97 season, the kit, which is loaded with nostalgic nods to Barça pride, will be worn for the first time when their European campaign gets underway later this month.

Barcelona fans will have fond memories of that iconic "teal green" shade as Brazilian legend Ronaldo famously scored 47 goals in his solitary campaign with the club on the way to winning two prestigious tournaments in the 96/97 season. In a continuation of Nike's beautiful 90s themed third shirts for 19/20, the Barça design is gloriously retro while paying tribute to the city's history.

The teal shade is stylishly set off by a retro V-neck collar which features a thick Blaugrana trim, as well as a dark blue trim on the sleeves. Meanwhile, the club’s hallowed status at the heart of Catalonia is celebrated through an all over diamond-shaped jacquard pattern, inspired by the city of Barcelona’s coat of arms.

The club crest leaps from the chest thanks to an elevated trim, and the ‘90s nostalgia is cranked up with the Nike ‘Futura’ logo. Teal shorts and socks complete the head to toe look, with the shorts boasting dark blue detailing, and the socks topped with a Blaugrana trim.

“Given Barcelona’s incredible archive of kits, it was great fun merging their iconic ‘90s identity with the modern Nike aesthetic,” says Pete Hoppins, Nike Football Apparel Senior Design Director. “The colour itself conjures so many memories, while the collar and the jacquard pattern make this kit both nostalgic and highly original at the same time.”
