FC Barcelona Home Kit 2011-2012 - Nike Football Shirt



Barcelona's home kit is a declaration, a warning of the domination to come. The Blaugrana's iconic red and blue stripes say everything that needs to be said about the Spanish Champions. A symbol of the fortress Camp Nou.

Domestic championship retained, records broken, Wembley in their sights, Barcelona have had tremendous success in their current Nike home strip. Now, they will look to do it all over again wearing their new Barcelona 2011/12 Nike Home Shirt.




The new Barcelona 11/12 Nike Home Kit is the uniform that the newly crowned La Liga champions will wear on their home turf next season. The new Barcelona kit will be officially unveiled tonight (17.05.11) at the Camp Nou - an event SoccerBible will be bringing you exclusive behind-the-scenes access from!



The release of the new 11/12 Nike Barcelona Home Kit is a special moment in Barcelona FC history. For the first time the club will wear a home and away strip featuring a shirt sponsor. Qatar Foundation will adorn the highly sought after retail space across the front of Barcelona's new jerseys for the next five years.

The non-profit organization that works with education projects in the Middle East, will replace the famous unicef logo that has become an iconic part of Barcelona's jerseys.



The arrival of the Qatar Foundation sponsor will not please the Barcelona romantics who have witnessed the club refute valuable shirt sponsor temptations throughout Barca's 111 year history. While financial necessities have been met, the Catalan club maintain their uniqueness by featuring the unicef logo on the back of their new 11/12 Nike Jerseys.



Aesthetically, the new Barcelona Home shirt is noticeably different. In contrast to this seasons, the new Barcelona home shirt features a new stripe execution with nine red stripes that narrow from the upper right to lower left of the jersey.

Yellow coloring has been removed from the round-neck collar as well as the sleeves. The solid sleeves are now completely blue while the collar appears in the classic red.







The Barcelona home jersey has grown into one of the most recognizable shirt designs in world football. Packed with history and tradition, Barcelona shirts continue to provide an emblem for the most exciting football played in the world. The look may be different, but the message remains the same. Total control.

Now you've seen the all new 2011-12 Barcelona home shirt, share your thoughts with the SoccerBible community online, on Twitter and on Facebook.
