Writing for Footy Headlines on 30 August 2026, Chris reported that the Nike Barcelona 27-28 third kit will use “a vibrant orange base, signifying the return of a classic club color”, with deep maroon and navy as accents.

Set expectations accordingly. This is an early colours leak for a shirt two seasons out, and it arrives without images, without a named source and without a release window. What it gives you is the palette and the template, which is usually the first solid information to emerge about a kit.

The template detail is the more concrete half of the story. The report says the shirt uses Nike’s 2027 Women’s World Cup template, which has already appeared on Australia’s 2027 kits. If that holds, the cut and construction of the Barcelona third are already visible on shirts you can look at today, even though the Barcelona version itself has never been photographed.

Design breakdown

The orange base. Orange is the headline, and the report frames it as the return of a classic club colour rather than a one-off experiment. Whether it reads bold or restrained on the shirt will depend on how much of the surface it covers, which the report does not say.

Maroon and navy accents. The report lists deep maroon and navy as the accent colours. It does not say where they sit on the shirt, so whether they appear as trim, panels or a graphic is still unknown.

The template. Nike’s 2027 Women’s World Cup template underpins the shirt. Templates dictate collar shape, sleeve construction and panel layout, so this is the detail that will determine how the finished shirt looks on the body.

What is not known. The report does not cover the collar treatment, the crest finish, the sponsor rendering, or any graphic or pattern applied over the orange. Those are all still open, and any description of them at this stage would be guesswork.

How the leaked colours compare to past Barcelona kits

The 2006-07 away shirt is the reference point Footy Headlines reaches for, and the comparison should be read as a colour echo rather than a remake. Nothing in the report suggests Nike are recreating that design, and the 27-28 shirt sits on a template two decades newer. What is being compared is the palette, and only the palette.

It also stands in clear contrast to the club’s other leaked 27-28 shirt. The Barcelona 27-28 home kit has been reported as Nike’s darkest yet, so the two are heading in opposite directions: the home leaning dark, the third reportedly going bright orange.

When can you buy the Barcelona 27-28 third kit?

No release date has been reported. This is a 2027-28 season shirt, so it is at least two campaigns away, and Footy Headlines gave no launch window. Anyone quoting a specific month for this kit is guessing. We will update this page when Nike or the club confirm anything.

The current range is a different matter. The Barcelona 2026/27 away jersey in the player version is the on-pitch specification, and the 2026/27 third long sleeve jersey is the current third shirt.
