Barcelona's 2025-26 Nike third kit had a dramatic color inconsistency during the broadcast, showing the same shirt appearing in wildly different shades ranging from bright orange to coral and salmon. The color variation across different cameras has left fans genuinely confused about the kit's true color, with a post garnering over 465,000 views and sparking debates about which version is accurate.
