Barcelona’s 08/09 away kit is all-yellow with a vertical stripe in club colours running down the left side of the shirt on the front (neatly encapsulating the Barcelona logo) and navy blue collar and shorts.

In terms of the base color it’s a lot better than the last year’s away kit although one highlight of Barcelona’s kits in recent years has been how well everything - from the logo to the inscriptions and color combinations - fits together and credit for that goes to Nike for paying attention to detail.

Barcelona’s 08/09 home kit is half red and half blue (with the traditional blue shorts) and although some fans (typically) don’t like the new kit, I think it’s a bold and successful design by Nike and it also serves to reflect the internal (spiritual) conflict in the club in terms of bridging the success of the past with their present and future achievements on the pitch.

Barcelona’s 2008-09 Away kit made by Nike has appeared to be leaked “accidently” to the public.  To be honest I do not believe that anything is “accidently” leaked to the public, it’s out there to get the media and fans talking about the club.  Anyways, here it is.

 It seems they are taking a page out of Chelsea’s book and using a bright color that has nothing to do with the color scheme of the club.  I like it honestly, it’s not nearly as bright as the Chelsea “Electric Yellow” they wear.  That thing is horrible.  This one is a nice yellow and really meshes nicely with the crest and stripes down the left side.  Overall I think it’s a decent kit.  Just have to see if it is what they say it is in the near future.

When Barcelona takes the pitch in opposing stadiums, they will do so in a totally different kit than in previous years. Taking a different approach in the away kit, Nike and Barca management went with a light blue and a darker light blue vertical stirpes. This is a nice contrast from the home kit that is recognizable throughout the world among football fans.

A coulpe nice features on this kit is the color scheme and how nicely it blends with the famous Barcelona crest, the sponsor logo and Nike logo match the yellow of the crest perfectly, and the collar. Many kit manufacturers have gone away from the traditional collar and have brought it back in the right situation, this is one of those situations. Add a little something different to an already unique kit.

Barcelona had one of the biggest transfers to hit the football world. Thierry Henry left his beloved Arsenal to join forces with Ronaldinho and the rest of the Barcelona stars. With this transfer, Nike had to develop a kit that could match the magnitude and be recognizable around the world. Lucky for them it is not hard with the likes of Ronaldinho and Henry wearing the kits.

Using the red and blue from the famous Barcelona Crest, Nike took the traditional look of red and blue vertical stripes for the home kit. This is nothing new, and really was a no brainer when it came to the home kit, however one touch that is extremely nice is the lettering and logo of the sponsor. It matches the yellow in the crest as well, so everything is within the realm of the color scheme of the club. When a club can utilize every color in the scheme and make it a great looking kit at the same time, I must give it 4 out of 5 stars. This is a nice looking kit.
