The Jordan Luka 3 is a bulky-looking shoe that plays more balanced than it looks thanks to its tacky traction.

Best Suitable For:

The Luka 3 is best for shifty, balanced players who mainly play on clean courts.

Jordan Luka 3 Review

Pros:
Effective traction on clean courts
Comfortable materials
Cons:
Picks up dust quickly
Retains heat with a lack of breathability

Performance of the Jordan Luka 3:

Luka Doncic's third signature shoe is a step in the right direction in on-court performance. The traction pattern performs very well, especially on clean courts. However, most reviewers experienced the outsole picking up dust quickly, which hampers performance. Cushlon 3.0 is the foam of choice in the midsole. It feels balanced, responsive, and low to the ground. The materials are soft and comfortable. They provide support and containment, but reviewers mention the upper isn't breathable. Support and lockdown are not an issue. The upper construction and the iso plate provide plenty of containment. The shoe's base also helps with stability. The Jordan Luka 3 improves on the previous two Luka signatures with reliable traction and balanced cushioning. Just make sure to wipe the dust off the outsole.

The Jordan Luka 3 is a solid performance hoop shoe, especially at this price. The traction bites well, and the cushioning is comfortable. Make sure to wipe the dust, though.

The radial herringbone traction pattern performs very well. You'll have no issues on clean courts. I never experienced slipping out on dusty courts, either.

Padding around the tongue is substantial, but the upper materials aren't too durable. Breathability is also not the best. However, the upper is comfortable on foot.
