Here is a run-down of the Barcelona merchandise manufacturers over the years:

On the subject of Barcelona kit history, we also need to mention the clubs’ stance on sponsorship. While many football clubs have had big sponsorship deals for their shirts for many years, FC Barça is relatively new to the party. Their first foray into shirt sponsorship wasn’t until 2006, when instead of earning big money to promote a company the club opted for the charitable route by raising money for UNICEF with their logo on the Barcelona jerseys, the UNICEF logo still adorns club’s products today. In 2011 Barcelona signed an agreement with Qatar Airways to initially continue with the charitable theme by promoting the Qatar Foundation which in turn moved to Qatar Airways sponsorship in 2013. Since 2017 the Barcelona football strip has featured Rakuten sponsorship. The move into commercial sponsorship hasn’t been universally popular with fans, you can find out more over on our blog.

Each season Nike launches three new Barcelona outfits; home, away and third, as well as goalkeeper outfits, training gear and fan accessories all of which can be purchased here at Soccer Box.
