Barcelona started their La Liga title defense with a comfortable 3–0 win over Mallorca, but many supporters were confused as to why the Catalans donned their bright, lime-green third kit from last season in their 2025–26 debut.
The Catalan giants will wear the same kit in their second game of the season away at Levante, toom though the decision to continue using a kit from last season hasn’t been made by the club—instead, it’s La Liga that have the final say on the kits every team wears for every matchup of the season.
Barcelona have already unveiled their three new kits for the 2025–26 season. The traditional Blaugrana home kit and the away kit that pays tribute to legendary NBA star Kobe Bryant were unveiled before the campaign got underway.
A bright orange third kit with a vintage design, inspired by the 2008–09 kit Barcelona wore when they completed the famous “sextuple”, has now been unveiled, but La Liga haven’t authorised it to be worn against Levante.
