Celebrate one of the most memorable traditions from France’s unforgettable summer of 1998 with this original Tiki Taka Tees design, inspired by Laurent Blanc and Fabien Barthez.
The artwork is styled like an aged football photograph, using faded monochrome tones, subtle French red and blue detailing and heavily distressed textures. It captures the famous pre-match ritual of Blanc kissing Barthez on the head — a small moment that became one of the enduring images associated with France’s 1998 World Cup campaign.
Blanc brought experience and composure to the French defence, while Barthez became one of the tournament’s standout goalkeepers. Their ritual came to symbolise the character, togetherness and superstition surrounding a team that would go on to make history on home soil.
