Kobe Bryant's love for soccer has resulted in another of his Nike signature models getting dressed in the colors of an iconic European club. The Kobe 11 is seen here in Barcelona shades for its coming "Mambacurial" release.
The shoe doesn't set itself apart from mainline Kobe 11s in the way that previous "Mambacurial" releases did from their respective silhouettes—there is no vamp Swoosh treatment or altered branding on the medial side here. The most notable change to the design comes via the patch on back, a football-style emblem referencing Bryant's five championships with stars.
The Kobe 11 "Mambacurial" is scheduled to release on Sep. 8.
