Jordan is an influencer in more than just sneaker silhouettes and playing style. The GOAT is also the man responsible for most of how we think about sneaker branding and marketing. Now, with the Jumpman long-solidified as its own standalone brand, Steph Curry, LeBron James, and Kobe Bryant all have their own sub-labels with their own personal logo moving past their own sneaker lines.
A Free Kick for Kobe
For the Mamba line, Bryant’s lifelong love of soccer has led to one of the biggest partnerships yet for the Kobe brand, an expansive collection of co-branded clothing and sneakers with La Liga heavyweights FC Barcelona. After unveiling the partnership last summer, the collab has featured ongoing sneaker drops, including a recent patent leather Dunk colorway that surfaced earlier this week. Joining the Dunk is an unseen Kobe 3, which should be released in the coming months.
The latest drop from the Kobe FC Barcelona line is another major clothing capsule with co-branded t-shirts, jerseys, shorts, goalkeeper kits, and more. Featuring a purple and gold color combo, the collection adds the Kobe font to the Barca logo next to Kobe sheath branding, FC Barcelona badges, and the club’s Spotify sponsor logo on the jerseys. The mamba texture used on the clothing items is a nod to Kobe’s work ethic, while Nike includes a quote on the collar of the jersey, “Leave the game better than you found it.”
