Barcelona has had a long-standing history with black-coloured kits. The first such instance was back in the 2011-12 campaign when the Blaugranas combined black with yellow for the away kit.
They carried forward the jersey to the next season as the third kit before opting for black once again in the 2013-14 campaign.

The centre of the jersey houses the primary sponsor logo, Spotify, in bold red while the back of the shirt sees the traditional logo of the United Nations refugee agency cause.
The final, yet most eye-catching detail, is the side stripes which feature a bold red stripe on the right and a blue stripe on the left.
Possibly the end of an era?
Barcelona and Nike have enjoyed a special partnership over the years, for the American giants have been the club’s main shirt manufacturers for 27 years now.
