The Barcelona 2024-2025 kits have been very well received by fans (and even many rival fans of Madrid) since the first leaks. This also was confirmed by high sales of the home shirt so far. However, people who want the kits are facing frustration because of two things - first, a delay in the release, and second, more importantly, chaos with the Spotify logo.

The late launch of the Barça 24-25 is partly caused by the club's ongoing negotiations with Nike (some even call it a war) - Barcelona wanted to end its deal ahead of schedule, which was forbidden by a court after Nike sued it.
The highly anticipated unveiling of the away shirt was first scheduled for late July and later changed to August 12th.

Footy Headlines has information that the away kit might be unveiled on Sunday, August 18th, 2024, but we can not ultimately confirm it.

Barcelona 24-25 Away & Third Kits to Be Sold With Old Spotify Logo in the Beginning

The new, icon-only Spotify isotype logo will only adorn the player's shirts in the first months, as is the case for the home. It could be that the Barcelona 24-25 away and 3rd kits with the new Spotify logo will be available this fall, but there is no confirmed info yet.

The presentation of Barça's home kit was one of our favorites in the 24-25 season, showing the players lying dreamily on the pitch, which oddly fits in with the sleepy situation of the availability of the kits.
