Nike x Kasina Dunk Low sneakers | Kobe Bryant x FC Barcelona x Nike Nike Air Max 2090 Men's Shoes Protro Expected to Release Fall 2025

With Nike’s Kobe line officially back in motion, the brand is digging deep into unreleased concepts, legacy pairs, and new narratives to build out its future slate. The latest to surface is a surprising fusion of basketball, soccer, and lifestyle: a Kobe Bryant x FC Barcelona x Nike Nike Air Max 2090 Men's Shoes Low Protro set to arrive in 2025.

Leaked images of the pair reveal a rich connection to both Kobe’s love for football (soccer) and his longtime affiliation with Nike. The sneaker is wrapped in luxurious faux snakeskin leather in deep purple—a color synonymous with FC Barcelona’s alternate kits and a frequent fixture in Kobe’s Nike catalog. Black patent leather Swooshes sit atop the sides, while Barcelona’s club crest appears prominently on the tongue and insole.

Nods to Kobe himself are scattered throughout, including a signature hit at the midsole, a Mamba logo on the heel tab, and the familiar Kobe Protro tag attached to the laces. Notably, this wouldn’t be the first time FC Barcelona has intersected with Kobe’s footwear legacy; a Nike Kobe 4 “Barcelona” is also expected to release this year.

No official confirmation has been shared by Nike or the Kobe Brand team, but the pair is expected to release for Fall 2025 rollout. If confirmed, it would mark another step in the expanding Kobe Protro series, which continues to balance nostalgia with modern performance updates.
