Release update and first look at Barcelona’s new 2023–24 third kit

FC Barcelona’s season is already underway, but so far the Blaugrana have officially only released the home and away kit, with the third kit still awaiting its release.

It goes without saying that careful consideration is given to the selection of the color scheme and design templates for various kits each year in order to appeal to the fanbase.

Footy Headlines provides a fresh update on Barcelona’s third kit for the ongoing season, as the jersey is expected to hit stores soon.

Primary features of the kit

The third kit for the Barcelona 23/24 season contains a light aqua shade with black as the logo color.

Moreover, the kit features a distinctive touch of the Blaugrana (blue and red) colors of Barcelona, with traces observed all over the kit, most notably on the sleeves and collar.

Featuring logos manufactured from Nike Grind, a recycled material, the substance of the Barcelona kit draws similarities with the Women’s World Cup jerseys.

This is not the first time the Catalans have opted for this kind of gradient, as it brings back the popular turquoise color of alternative kits such as those from the 1996–97 and 2019–20 seasons.

When is it released?

According to the source, the 23–24 third jersey reveal is scheduled to take place on Friday, September 7. This is one week after the Champions League group stage draw and 12 days before the first games on September 19.

A picture of Robert Lewandowski donning the jersey in a photoshoot has already been leaked in early August, implying the club are wrapping up the final touches for the announcement.
