Harry Clark has been a constant presence in NFL tight end Travis Kelce’s inner circle for years, as the two have reportedly been "longtime friends after meeting in their hometown of Cleveland."

He joined Kelce for Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour shows in Singapore in 2024 and has appeared in behind‑the‑scenes footage on Kelce’s Instagram feed.

Life & Style Weekly highlighted their bond when Kelce "brought a longtime friend" to one of Swift’s concerts as a gift, introducing Clark to international audiences.

As Kelce gears up for his 13th NFL season, Clark took to his Instagram story on Wednesday to unveil his latest gift: a pair of Caitlin Clark’s new player-exclusive (PE) signature sneakers.

The video showed Harry Clark displaying the Nike Kobe 5 Protro "Indiana Fever" PE, which is officially slated for a public drop on June 30.

In her debut season with the Indiana Fever in 2024, Clark averaged 19.2 points, 8.4 assists and 5.7 rebounds per game, earning WNBA Rookie of the Year, All‑WNBA First Team honors and an All‑Star selection.

Prior to turning pro, Clark became the NCAA Division I’s all-time leading scorer, won back‑to‑back national player of the year awards and led the country in scoring and assists in three of her four years at Iowa.

The Kobe 5 Protro "Indiana Fever" PE features a predominantly midnight navy upper with bright crimson and University gold accents while incorporating a snakeskin texture overlay as a nod to Kobe Bryant’s legacy.

Bright crimson hits appear on the tongue and gradient heel, while the Fever’s team colors run throughout the design.
