FC Barcelona’s Kobe Bryant collaboration jersey revealed as final design leaks

FC Barcelona will continue its successful partnership with Kobe Bryant’s brand and Nike next season, and several specialized kit outlets have revealed what the final design is expected to look like. 

The jersey will be black, featuring purple accents on the club crest, the Mamba logo, and along the hem of both the shirt and shorts.

Images shared by Twitter accounts @Memorabilia1899 and @Opaleak showcase what they claim is the definitive Kobe Bryant tribute kit, which is set to be released this summer.

The Barcelona jersey created in collaboration with Kobe Bryant features a gradient design blending purple and black, highlighted by iridescent gold logos. 

According to the reports, the primary color will be “Field Purple,” the same shade associated with the Los Angeles Lakers, the team where Kobe spent his entire career. 

The gold accents will use “Metallic Gold.” Purple shorts and socks will complete Barcelona’s away kit for the upcoming season.

One notable detail is the inclusion of the phrase “Leave the game better than you found it,” a signature statement from Kobe Bryant that is also inscribed on his statue at Crypto.com Arena, formerly known as Staples Center.
