Doncic’s first launched signature shoe is finding success in the NBA world and his year probably couldn’t have gotten much better than this. The Slovenian star’s shoe is perhaps the first shoe in a signature line that is stealing the spotlight in such a way since MJ’s first shoes came out in the mid-80s. The three-time All-Star’s shoes are getting massive success and are worn by his contemporaries. A few Jordan-sponsored NCAA teams like Florida, UCLA, and Oklahoma, among others, also received the player-exclusive Jordan Luka 1 in different colors.
