Two icons. One unforgettable legacy. Nike has unveiled a bold new FC Barcelona x Kobe Bryant collection – a powerful fusion of basketball greatness and football tradition, honouring the late NBA legend with serious style.

At the heart of the drop is Barça’s 2025/26 away kit: a striking gold jersey with rich violet and black detailing, subtly textured with a snakeskin print – a nod to Kobe’s Black Mamba persona – and finished with his logo alongside the club crest.

But the magic doesn’t stop there.

From training tops and sweatshirts to tees, shorts and anthem jackets, the apparel line brings the same energy. A standout GX track jacket leads the charge – snake-textured, jet black and edged with purple – capturing that unmistakable Mamba mentality in every thread.

Then there’s the footwear: a striking pair of Kobe x FCB Air Force 1s in deep purple; a gold-clad Kobe 4 Protro echoing Barca’s away kit’s tones; and a pair of slick post-match sliders to complete the look.

Barcelona introduced the collection on Instagram with a fitting tribute: “Two icons, one shared story.
A collaboration born from mutual admiration and the values that unite us: talent, commitment, and passion.”

Kobe Bryant’s connection with Barcelona ran deep. He visited Camp Nou several times, played charity matches in Barça colours and spoke often of his admiration for the team.

This drop honours that bond – and the legacy of a man whose influence continues to inspire, both on the court and far beyond it.
