A Euro-exclusive Kobe shoe? Basketball isn’t the most popular sport in Europe, but Kobe Bryant’s name certainly holds some weight thanks to his father’s professional career across the pond. Kobe, who grew up playing soccer alongside basketball, has ties to our neighboring continent as he is a part-owner of an Italian football club and is also an endorsee of Turkish Airlines and a plethora of other Euro-based brands. The Kobe-Europe connection is about to grow as the Bright Mango colorway of the Zoom Kobe VI ‘FC Barcelona’ is scheduled to release on Nikestore UK exclusively on May 18th, with a size-run of 7-14 and the same pricepoint as other Kobe VI releases. Where does the Kobe VI ‘FC Barcelona’ rank among all the other Kobe VI releases of 2011? Let us know after the jump and hit up those Euro-connects if you’ve got ’em.
