FC Barcelona x Nike Air Force 1 'Kobe' Collab Surfaces

Nike's ongoing series of Kobe Bryant-themed Air Force 1 colorways will soon continue with a new colorway designed in collaboration with FC Barcelona.

Newly leaked images from @solesbyzay_backup on Instagram reveal that an all-purple FC Barcelona x Nike Air Force 1 Low "Kobe" is on the way. The design closely resembles the upcoming "Mamba Forever" styles and has a snakeskin-inspired upper, donning a purple color scheme paired with black hits on the Swoosh and sockliner. The sneaker's standout element is the FC Barcelona logo stamped on the tongue and insoles, while Bryant's Sheath logo appears on the heel.

Nike has created FC Barcelona-inspired Kobe colorways in the past, which included the Kobe 6, Kobe 7, Kobe 8, and the Kobe 11 Low.

Despite images of the "Kobe" FC Barcelona x Nike Air Force 1 Low, release info for the collab has yet to be announced by the brand. Check back soon for updates.
