THE VITALS:

Team: Barcelona

Brand: Nike

Era: 2010-11 (Used for the 2010-11 La Liga season)

Name/Number: Messi #10

CONDITION: GOOD

This shirt could admittedly be in better condition with sadly the decal of the sponsor, ‘Mes Que Une Club’ print on the arm, and name and numbering print cracking, and in some parts, coming away. Furthermore, I have to question the authenticity of the shirt with the badge being misaligned, and the presence of a sizing misprint; the sum of which has all been reflected in the price.

DIMENSIONS:

Size: Large

Pit to Pit Measurement: 22 inches

Shirt Length: 29 inches

Made in the Nike ‘Dri-Fit’ style of the 2010-11 season; the shirt in my opinion is the perfect size large football shirt, however if you are a traditional size medium that prefers a baggier fit; the sizing would also suffice.

DESCRIPTION:

Designed by Nike as a throwback to the 1993-94 away shirt; this modern take on the mint green classic was synonymous with the peak years of the halcyonic Pep Guardiola era. The shirt still pays homage to the ‘blaugrana’ colours of Barca’ with the blue and red motif which houses the Nike ‘swoosh’ and the clubs crest. While not much of a fixture in the league, this shirt was worn in the away games with: Rubin Kazan, Arsenal, and Shakhtar Donetsk in that seasons Champions League, and also against AC Milan in the away clash during the 2011-12 group stages.

The notable players that season were:

Lionel Messi, David Villa, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Bojan, Pedro, Ibrahim Afellay, Javier Mascherano, Xavi, Andres Iniesta, Seydou Keita, Sergio Busquets, Adriano, Dani Alves, Carles Puyol, Gerard Pique, Gabriel Milito, Maxwell, Eric Abidal, Victor Valdes, Pinto
