- FC Barcelona Kit Change: FC Barcelona's women's team wore white shorts with their home kit in a Champions League match against Manchester City to avoid a color clash.
- Custom Nike Shorts: Nike prepared custom white shorts featuring Blaugrana cutouts for this specific match, possibly an off-white shade.
- Historical Significance: White shorts were part of Barcelona's original kit in 1899, and a collector created a 125th-anniversary kit mock-up featuring white shorts as a nod to the club's history.
In a rare move, FC Barcelona paired white shorts with its home kit during its Women's Champions League match against Manchester City yesterday evening.
FC Barcelona Women Wears (Off-)White Shorts Vs Manchester City
The decision to wear white shorts with the home kit had to be made because Manchester City wore navy shorts, which would have clashed with Barcelona’s usual navy shorts.
Interestingly, Nike had prepared custom white shorts for the occasion. The white shorts feature Blaugrana cutouts matching the half-and-half design of the shirt. Indeed, the white seems to be of an off-white shade, but we cannot ultimately confirm this.
