The third strip, which unlike last season will not be exclusive to European competitions but will be alternated with the first and second kits in the different tournaments, comes in a very different design that completely departs from the direction of previous uniforms. This one does not feature the usual stripes and instead includes the image of a large red and blue cross on the front of the shirt over a light grey base. This extremely atypical design represents a major departure from the traditional style of Barça strips. Design commemorating the award of the Cross de Sant Jordi

The club's social commitments are also manifested in this strip through the prominent presence of the Cross of Sant Jordi (Saint George) in the design. 2022 marks the 30th anniversary of the awarding of the said Cross by the Government of Catalonia to FC Barcelona in recognition of its contributions to the betterment of society and its leading role in the promotion of sport, as well as its values in relation to sport, civic duty, and solidarity, which make it so unique in the sports world.The club's commitment to social causes is precisely being demonstrated on occasion of the match in which the strip will be worn for the first time. Barça are playing Manchester City at 9.30pm CEST in a charity fundraiser in support of ALS. The third strip will be going on sale from the day of the match, Wednesday 24 August. These values ​​are also being reflected in the way that the strip is being officially presented. For the first time, it will not only be players from the men's and women's first teams who will be helping to unveil the new design, but also those of the Barça Genuine Foundation team made up of boys and girls with functional diversity who have been competing since last season in the statewide LaLiga Genuine Santander.
