After Nike released the FC Barcelona 19-20 kit, Croatian Football Federation released a short tweet that states that one can't beat red-and-white checkers.

However, the reason for Barcelona having a checkboard print is not because of Croatia- The design is inspired by the gridded streetscape of Barcelona’s Eixample district.

"The neighborhood pulses with creativity, and its residents are acknowledged as the building blocks of the city’s future."

“The kit is something new and exciting,” says Gerard Piqué. “It might be different, but it is 100 percent Barca and it is even better that the design represents the bond the club has with the supporters and the people who are driving the city forward.”
