First
Nike. 1998-2021
Barça became a global brand and the shirt became a source of income. As a result, Nike created a new, radically different design, with bolder colours and designs. After a few years, the away kit was also changed every season and subsequently there were three kits. The material underwent rapid changes, with more elastic, lighter, breathable materials, while Barça wore the name of a sponsor for the first time in its history.

Players
Men’s first team
The silhouette of Saint George's cross, patron saint of Catalonia, stand out in the new jersey, next to a Catalan flag reinterpreted in Barça's colours. In the lower part of the shirt, tradition vertical stripes are kept, while the sleeves are plain, half blue and half red.
Women’s first team
Second
Barça is bringing in a new colour this season: mauve. This new choice sends out a message in favour of diversity, women's empowerment and the struggle for gender equality. The traditional blue and red only appear in vertical stripes on the sides.
Europa
An exclusive Champions League jersey is this season's novelty. It sports vertical stripes and a pattern with distinctive elements of five Barcelona neighbourhoods.

Men’s first team
Barça brings back vertical stripes in a design that evokes the 1920s. The great novelty is the thin gold stripes that delimit the blue and the maroon, a model inspired by the crest the club sported a century ago, and a round neck with a gold trim. The shorts are blue with a maroon stripe down the sides and the socks have horizontal stripes.
Women’s first team
Second
For the third time in 10 years, Barça will have a black shirt. In this case it will be the second kit, whose details - including the crest - will be in gold. The only chromatic exception will be a small horizontal flag on the upper back.
Third
The third kit, practically plain and with a round neck, will be pink, with black and teal details and accessories. These two shades will also be used for the crest, which will not display the traditional blue and red. As with the second kit, only a small flag, in this case vertical, will break the chromatic unity.
El Clásico
A symbolic jersey for a unique match: el clásico against Real Madrid. Barça played in a special edition kit, in which the traditional Barça kit fused with the Catalan flag, through two stripes that broke the dominant blue. The collar had a yellow border.

Men’s first team
Whereas in 2015 strip were horizontal for the first time in the club's history, this season Barça and Nike innovated and presented a chequered jersey, inspired by Barcelona's Eixample district. The flag became more visible, moving to the front part of the jersey.
Women’s first team
For the first time in its history, Barça commercialised Barça women's T-shirt, with its own sponsor.
Second
In a homage to la Masia's 40 years, Barça brought back yellow for its away kit. The jersey, which was similar to the one to team wore in 1979, had a blue and red diagonal stripe and a Catalan flag on the collar at the back. Shorts had two versions: one blue, one yellow.
Third
The third team’s kit is a tribute to the city of Barcelona, whose shield appears in a repeating pattern, and also the team from the 1996-97 season, when Ronaldo played for Barça when they won the Copa del Rey and the Cup Winners'Cup. The retro V-neck, the choice of a bluish-green colour and the Nike logo featuring the name are this kit’s remaining distinctive features.
Fourth
The second yellow shirt from Barça this season, its first year with four teams. This time it features four diagonal red stripes, imitating the Catalan flag. The kit sports the slogan 'Ho portem dins' [We carry it within us], in a nod to the club’s roots. The neck is V-shaped, while the socks and trousers are also a solid yellow.

Second
Nike continued with Kappa’s orange, while changing the socks and the shorts. They also changed the direction of the stripe across the shirt, which became horizontal.
Kappa. 1992-1998
Kappa took over from Meyba, opting for designs which broke with the sober line which was typical up until the 90s. For the first time the blue and scarlet stripes were irregular and included certain white elements which created a degree of controversy at the time. The choice of designs was clearly motivated by commercial interests, in that they were increasingly different and were worn for shorter periods.

Meyba. 1979-1992
Meyba, a Catalan firm, joined forces with Barça to introduce big changes in this respect by no longer making the clothes from cotton, which had been used up to then. The introduction of colour TV allowed Meyba to incorporate new designs in different shades and to move away from the custom of wearing a blue and scarlet kit when playing at home and a white kit when playing away.

The design which introduced by Meyba featured five stripes down the front and a blue collar. It featured a pattern on the sleeves, something missing in earlier seasons. It also appeared on the shorts, some of which had pockets.
Second
For four years, until their 1-4 defeat against Metz at Camp Nou in the UEFA Cup Winner’s Cup, Barça’s away kit consisted of a yellow shirt with a blue and scarlet stripe.
Third
One of the shortest-lived designs was a plain yellow shirt, with no stripes and a pattern which only appeared on the sleeves. It was used after the yellow.

First
Meyba’s debut led to changes in the manufacture and material used for the kit, although for the first few seasons the shirt did not feature the design on the sleeves which were typical of the Catalan company. The design of the socks changed after having remained unchanged for many years.
Second
The white shirt was used until the start of the 80s, when Meyba decided to use new designs with different colours.
1940-1979
Shirts with wide stripes, blue shorts and striped socks became the norm during this period. The kits were still made of cotton. However, the cut was more suited to playing sport. Short-sleeved shirts were brought in at the start of the 1960s. Monthalt was awarded the contract to make the team’s kits in the period before Meyba took over. The fact that Barça had a second kit meant that the black and white TVs of the time were better able to tell the teams apart. In 1957 Barça wore the shortest-lived kit in its history.

First
Aside from a few minor details, Barça's kit would remain the same as the one it had worn since the end of the Civil War.
Inter-Cities Fairs Cup
To compete in the Inter-Cities Fairs Cup from the 1957-1958 season the shirt was white with the city of Barcelona’s crest, instead of the club’s, as the competition was between cities and Barça represented the Catalan capital.
Inter-Cities Fairs Cup
Aside from the white one, the club had a blue version of the same shirt, with white shorts and dark socks to compete in the Inter-Cities Fairs Cup.
The most short-lived
In a friendly match against Manchester City on 8 May 1957, Barça was forced to change their kit after the fans invaded the les Corts pitch: the shirt was white with a blue and scarlet stripe on the chest. The fans objected to the kit the players were wearing, forcing them to stop the game in order for them to change into their usual Barça shirt.

First
In 1949, on the occasion of the club’s 50th anniversary, the crest once again featured the four stripes of the Catalan flag. A lighter blue was used on the kit and the design of the socks continued to change until the blue and scarlet stripes of the same width became the norm.
Second
“During the 40s, when Barça played teams wearing the same colours, such as Levante and Pontevedra, the players swapped their usual shirts for white ones."
1899-1940
There are different versions as to how the first blue and scarlet shirt came about. The most popular version of the story is that Hans Gamper used the same colours as Basilea, the team he played for before coming to Barcelona. Nevertheless, it is possible that Barça played its first matches in white. The design featuring vertical stripes began to take hold after 1910, with slight differences depending on who manufactured the shirts, and featured an early version of the current crest.

First
On 16 January 1910, Barça wore a shirt with vertical stripes for the first time, made from lightweight material instead of the flannel shirts worn during the early years. The kit was first seen on the pitch on Carrer Indústria in a match against FC Central. That same year, Barça held a competition to design its crest. It was won by Santiago Femenia. Since then the basic design has been preserved, with slight changes made throughout the years. The socks were completely different and the shorts were shortened in order to make them more comfortable.

Without crest
The earliest photograph of Barça dates from 1900, in which it can already be seen that the kit was divided into two halves, with the scarlet and the blue in equal parts. It was made from a type of flannel which was impractical for playing sport, and which, according to advertisements of the time, was made at the Kneipp shirt factory on Carrer del Call.
With crest
Initially Barça wore the city of Barcelona’s crest and the shorts were held up by a belt.
From Zamora to Ter Stegen
Throughout the first 50 years of the club’s history, the Barça goalkeeper wore a turtleneck shirt. Ramallets used to wear a white polo neck, while the last three great goalkeepers in the club’s history had one thing in common: they wore green.
The Early Years
Zamora
Ricardo Zamora, 'The Divine', only played for Barça for three years, but he was one of the most important figures in the first half of the century. Most people picture him wearing a tutleneck shirt in one colour, usually white.
Platkko
The Hungarian Ferenc Plattko wore a polo or turtleneck shirt during the years he spent in Barcelona. There is a famous photo of him in his white collar, in contrast to the rest of his shirt.
Nogués
Following the tradition set by his predecessors, the Aragonese Juan José Nogués, who was Barça’s goalkeeper during the 30s and early 40s, wore a turtleneck.
Years of Change
Ramallets
Antoni Ramallets wore another type of kit, more suited to the needs of his position, with a polo neck.
Sadurní
Salvador Sadurní wore different designs during the 15 seasons he played for Barça, but he particularly stood out because of his blue and black polo neck shirts, which sometimes had buttons.
Urruti
Urruti’s most famous kit was the one he wore during the famous Valladolid penalty: Meyba’s blue socks, shorts and shirt, with a red stripe round the neck and shoulder.
Modern Goalkeepers
Zubizarreta
Everyone remembers Andoni Zubizarreta with his green shirt and black shorts.
Valdés
Víctor Valdés was Barça’s goalkeeper during a time when the design changed constantly: nevertheless, the green shirt with black shorts is the kit which is associated with the Champions Cup Final in Paris.
Ter Stegen
Also dressed in green, Marc-André ter Stegen, though he often wore black and red, lifted the Berlin Champions
