The 2025/26 away kit of Barcelona will probably start in the coming weeks, and a Mamba collection inspired by Kobe Bryant will accompany her publication.
The Los Angeles Lakers Legend shared strong relationships with the Catalan club before he had a helicopter accident in a helicopter crash in 2020. He not only played against Barรงa’s basketball team several times, but also visited the Camp Nou several times and even took part in a charity football game in 2011.
Now, five years later, Barรงa seems to honor one of her best -known fans with a kit that is inspired by his legacy.
Pictures that are shared by Memorabilia in 1899 show the away shirt with a brave and elegant color palette made of gold, violet and black – which reflect the colors worn by Bryant during his legendary Lakers career.
An outstanding detail is the black “Scheide”-Logo-Kobe’s personal emblem-which is displayed on the chest compared to a darkened Barรงa coat of arms, which even contains a weak snake skin texture, a subtle allusion to Bryant’s “Black Mamba” spy.
The kit is expected to start between Monday, July 21 and Saturday, July 26th.

And the tribute doesn’t stop here.
Barcelona, โโNike and the Bryant brand report reportedly with a new sneaker: the Kobe Bryant X FC Barcelona X Nike Air Force 1 Low Protro. Like per House of heatThe shoe has a Faux Snakeskin leather leather in the rich purple -an allusion to the Lakers heritage from Kobe and the historical away colors from Barรงa.
The branding of Mamba hits the heel, the middle sole and the top brand and binds the shoe directly to the man he honors. The sneaker will publish this autumn at some point.
With a kit and a sneaker that falls out in symbolism, Barcelona’s tribute to Kobe Bryant sees one of the most powerful crossovers between football and basketball.
