Spanish club FC Barcelona continues to keep the Olympics trend alive in their uniform unveilings, this time in their away kit for the upcoming season.
This time, in celebration of the 30-year anniversary since the 1992 Olympic Games, the kit is dressed in gold with a pattern displaying the map of Barcelona, highlighting Eixample, Montjuic, and Barceloneta where the Games were held.
The five colours of the Olympics – blue, yellow, red, green and black – are featured on the sleeve cuffs, while the club’s primary sponsors in Nike and Spotify have their logos featured in navy blue. The United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees logo is also featured on the back along with the players’ names and numbers in blue.
Continuing in their commitment to sustainability, the jerseys are made of 100% recycled polyester fabric which is produced from recycled plastic bottles.
“Like the home kit, this away strip is also being presented under the tagline ‘The Flame Lives On’, evoking the way that the Olympic spirit that drove the city of Barcelona into a new era is still burning and a part of the everyday lives of men and women in the Catalan capital,” FC Barcelona wrote in a statement on its website. “The Olympic influence made Barcelona a benchmark for the world. In similar fashion, FC Barcelona has always been a benchmark both on and off the pitch, its unique qualities leading it to be recognized as ‘More than a Club’ both at home and abroad.”
FC Barcelona’s 2022-2023 away kit is now available at the FC Barcelona webstore along with Barca Stores at Camp Nou and select locations in Barcelona, with a wider release set for later this year.
