    Description

    This FC Barcelona Home shirt from the 2004-05 season has the name MESSI and the number 30 on the back - the number a 17-year-old Lionel Messi wore when he made his first-team debut that season, before becoming the defining figure of the club in the years that followed. Under Frank Rijkaard, Barcelona were convincing Spanish champions this season with 84 points, led by Samuel Eto'o and Ronaldinho, who was regarded as the creative mind of the team. It was the beginning of an era in which the club worked its way back to the top of European football. As a Nike fan version, the shirt shows the classic red and blue of those years and, with a grade of 9/10, is in a condition that has stood the test of time well.

      Barcelona crowned themselves Spanish champions in 2004-05 with 84 points, leaving all their rivals trailing behind. Samuel Eto'o was the outstanding goalscorer with 25 goals, while Ronaldinho formed the creative heart of the team with nine goals and 15 assists. Xavi and Deco also contributed to the attacking play with their assists. Under coach Frank Rijkaard, Barcelona also reached the quarter-finals of the Champions League and the second round of the Copa del Rey. A shirt from this season represents the start of a new era at the top of European football.

      Frequently asked questions

      Icon for reviewWhat condition are the shirts in?

      Honest condition details, transparent 1-10 grading and high-resolution original photos - so you see exactly what you get.

      • Our vintage treasures have a history - and sometimes the odd battle scar.
      • We list every flaw plainly and give a clear score from 1 (to love anyway) to 10 (fresh out of the time machine). How we grade is explained in detail on our condition page.
      • We take the photos ourselves in the studio, high-resolution and without Photoshop touch-ups - you can see every seam, every thread and every heroically earned stain.
      Icon for verifiedIs the shirt genuine?

      Yes. We sell verified originals only - no fakes. We check every shirt by hand before it goes on sale: MPN (where available), material and feel, seams, details.

      Icon for barcodeHow does the sizing run?

      Vintage shirts vary a lot depending on era and manufacturer - do not rely on the label alone. On every product page you find the chest width in cm (measured flat). Best compare it with a shirt that fits you well.

      Icon for shopping_bagCan I pick up / try on in store?

      Of course - drop by our store in Zurich and take a look at the shirts before buying (trying on included). Opening hours and address are here on the store page. What you see in the online shop is also in the store. During June/July some shirts are also at our pop-up in Zurich main station. Every shirt shows which location it is at.

      Icon for secureHow do I care for my vintage shirt?

      So your shirt lasts - the essentials in short:

      • Wash inside out, zips closed, 30 °C gentle cycle, detergent for sportswear.
      • Never tumble dry - air dry. Do not iron (at most carefully with steam).
      • Soak stains beforehand (mild soap), never chlorine bleach.
      • Old shirts with brittle print/flock: as rarely as possible, and by hand only.
