Meyba collaborates with Johan Cruyff's brand Creating a collection dedicated to the 1992 European Cup final

On May 20, 1992, Barcelona won the Champions League by defeating Sampdoria. The club was coached by Johan Cruyff - a football legend both as a player and as a manager. Cruyff, in his managerial role, is still idolized today for laying the groundwork for all of Barcelona's future successes. In that game, held at Wembley Stadium, the Barcelona coaches wore a tracksuit by Meyba. To commemorate that achievement, Meyba collaborated with Cruyff's brand to recreate that jacket, now a collector's item. The jacket represents a golden age for both Meyba and Cruyff. Available in limited edition, the jacket will be launched as part of a capsule collection that includes a T-shirt and a scarf. Only 300 jackets have been produced.

Meyba was founded in Barcelona by Josep Mestre and Joaquim Ballbé. The two entrepreneurs, since the 1940s, had the dream of creating a sports clothing line. Thus, "ME ‘y’ BA" was born, which in 1981 became Meyba and gained international recognition by signing an agreement with Barcelona, becoming the official supplier of a talented team. Meyba has been worn by footballers of the caliber of Maradona, Michael Laudrup, Ronald Koeman, and a young Pep Guardiola, all of whom were coached by the historic Johan Cruyff. Meyba continues today to sponsor clubs worldwide and to produce lifestyle product collections.

All products from the collection are available on the online stores of Meyba & Cruyff brand.
