FC Barcelona 20-21 Home Kit Released - Replica Finally Available After Quality Issues
Update: Almost two months after the launch of the new FC Barcelona 2020-21 home shirt, the €90 replica version of the kit is finally available for sale. The long wait is explained by a manufacturing problem by Nike that made jerseys fade with sweat or when being washed.
The new FC Barcelona 2020-21 home strip was officially released by the club this morning, and is available to buy in the official store as well as from select retailers. Only the €140 Vapor Match version of the FC Barcelona 2020-2021 home strip is available right now, due to production issues with the 'replica' edition.
The release date for the replica / stadium jerseys will be announced in the future:
"Due to a technical issue, [Stadium] models were withdrawn from the distribution controlled by FC Barcelona, and once the problem is solved, the Club will inform when the garments will be available through the usual stores and distribution channels."

FC Barcelona Nike 2020-21 Home Shirt
Check out Nike's FC Barcelona 2020-2021 home jersey below.
The Nike FC Barcelona 20-21 home shirt introduces a classy look that's inspired by the 2011 Champions League winning shirt as well as the club's successful 1920s period.
It's the ten-year anniversary of the 2010-11 season, which saw Barcelona win the league and Champions League. Similar to the classy kit worn that season, the Nike FC Barcelona 20-21 home football shirt has a yellow crew-neck collar and two red stripes on the front, back and sleeves.
Inspired by the 1920s, there are thin gold stripes that appear between the traditional blue and red on the Nike FC Barcelona 2020-21 shirt. Such a style was used by the Catalan giants throughout the 1920s, including when they won the Copa del Rey in 1928 and the first La Liga in 1929.
There's also a subtle halftone gradient towards the sides of the stripes, which reminds us a bit of the 2012-13 kit.
Blue shorts and hooped socks round off the look of the new FC Barcelona 2020-2021 kit by Nike.

QPR Kit Clash Against West Brom
QPR faced a major kit clash in their EFL Championship away game at West Brom, wearing their pink away shirt with blue shorts against West Brom's traditional blue-and-white home shirt.
The bright pink of QPR looked surprisingly similar to the white stripes of West Brom on TV, while the blue shorts and dark details made the overall contrast even less clear.
From the wide camera angle, the two teams became difficult to distinguish, creating a frustrating viewing experience for fans.
Nike Kobe 8 Protro 'Mambacurial' Releasing Next Week
Nike is set to officially bring back one of its most famous crossover designs, the Kobe 8 Protro "Mambacurial", releasing on September 19, 2026. First introduced in 2013 as a tribute to Kobe Bryant's lifelong passion for football, the sneaker drew direct inspiration from the vibrant 2013 Nike Mercurial Vapor IX football boot. Thirteen years after its original debut, the model returns under the modernized Protro banner, uniting basketball performance with iconic football heritage. Big thanks to House of Heat.
The shoe faithfully recreates the beloved colorway, featuring a bold gradient across the engineered mesh upper in Red Plum, Pink Flash, and Electric Green. Signature football details define the look, including the oversized forefoot Swoosh that mimics Mercurial boot branding, massive block-letter "NIKE" lettering across the medial flank, and a translucent neon green outsole. Modern Protro upgrades have been implemented beneath the surface to provide improved cushioning and traction.

Norwegian Toppserien side SK Brann Kvinner have officially unveiled their new 26-27 third kit, produced by Nike in collaboration with Unisport. The team debuted the vibrant new design during their away fixture against Lyn in Oslo.
The Nike SK Brann Kvinner 26-27 third shirt features a purple base paired with a large, dark rhododendron flower graphic printed across the front. The design honors Bergen's reputation as Norway's "Rhododendron City," known for the vibrant bushes that flourish in gardens and parks across the city. All branding, including the Nike Swoosh, monochrome Brann crest, and sponsor logos, is applied in a contrasting bright pink.
On the back, the jersey includes the inscription "For Bergen" in gothic lettering just below the collar, symbolizing the pride of representing the city on away trips. The new third uniform completes Brann Kvinner's 26-27 wardrobe alongside their traditional red home and dark away kits.
Special Club América 26-27 Kit Font Released
Club América has unveiled a special commemorative kit font for the 26-27 season, celebrating Mexican Independence Day and the club's marquee Clásico matches throughout September. The bespoke nameset replaces the regular squad typography on the back of Las Águilas' primary yellow home shirt, adopting the iconic green, white, and red of the Mexican flag.
The custom numbers feature a deep green base detailed with thin white vertical pinstripes. Embedded along the vertical lines are historic commemorative inscriptions, including the club name, the date "16 - 09 - 1810" marking the start of the Mexican War of Independence, and "INDEPENDENCIA DE MÉXICO". The player names above are rendered in vibrant red with a clean white outline.
To complete the patriotic design, each numeral incorporates a geometric red and cream 3D shadow effect, alongside Club América's crest placed at the base of every digit. The special typography delivers a unique cultural tribute, adding extra identity to the squad's jerseys during one of the most important periods of the Mexican football calendar.
