Design & Aesthetic:
The kit features a vibrant orange-to-yellow gradient, symbolizing the Catalan sunset and reflecting FC Barcelona’s daring visual ethos. The gradient fade is smooth and elegant, transitioning with digital precision. The dark navy sponsor, Nike swoosh, and club crest stand in high contrast, maximizing visibility and brand prominence.
 
Material & Texture:
The fabric employs lightweight, breathable mesh that enhances airflow — suitable for high-performance junior use. The micro-hexagonal pattern on the surface adds a tactile and visual modernity, nodding to Nike's technological innovation during that era.
 
Crest & Branding:
The embroidered FCB crest is sharply defined and rich in color saturation, placed prominently on the chest. The Qatar Foundation sponsor logo, alongside the UNICEF branding on the back, reinforces Barça’s social values — a rare example of a club combining commercial and humanitarian imagery in harmony.
 
Historical Relevance:
This kit was worn during Tito Vilanova’s season in charge, when the team showcased dominant performances, with players like Messi in peak form. It represents a period of transition and strength, and remains a fan-favorite for its uniqueness.
 
Fit & Visual Balance:
The bold color split between the top and shorts (orange top, yellow shorts) creates a vibrant but balanced visual weight, aided by the dark contrast trim. It’s a jersey that commands attention while staying functionally athletic.
