Barcelona went proper 90s rave with their new training kit.
But it seems like Barca are set to go retro with their brand new home kit too, for the time being anyway
The Catalan club famously didn't have a shirt sponsor on the front of their jersey until 2006, when they signed a deal with children's charity Unicef.
Qatar Foundation became the sponsor in 2011, and Qatar Airways in 2013. However, the current agreement is set to expire, and Barcelona are clearly looking to explore all their options before inking a new deal.
This means the first batch of the new Barcelona strips sold won't feature a sponsor.
"When the current shirts are all out of stock, the new shirts will appear in the shops, without a sponsor, for now," Manel Arroyo, one of the club's vice-presidents, told Catalan radio.
"There will be a sponsor. We are working on it, me and the commercial team. Everything is following the path it should. The only thing I can say is that to do our job well, we have to be discrete and silent regarding the negotiations."
Here's a leaked impression of the new sponsor-less Barca jersey:
