We all knew this was going to happen. Nike is set to release Luka Doncic‘s first ever signature sneaker and it’s going on a mid cut Air Jordan 1. Though young and newer to the league compared to other players, Luka has shown his experience and dominance on the court. But before pulling off all those magical moves he sets his mind right every game with his pregame ritual. This pregame ritual is the inspiration for this colourway.
Detailed on the heel counters of the sneakers are the words “Breathe & Center” and also “Center & Breathe”. Words to live by before the madness on the court.
The sneaker also features switching coloured swooshes and outsole with Green and purple.
Release date for this sneaker is set for April 30th on Nike websites and other retailers.
This sneaker is just one in a collection being released by Nike. Other signature sneakers being released are Sacramento Kings player De’Aaron Fox’s and Phoenix Mercury player Brittney Griner’s Air Force 1s. Also Philadelphia 76ers player Ben Simmon’s Blazers.

Levi’s® teams up with New Balance for a Made in the USA sneaker. Levi’s® and New Balance are two brands that have a lot in common. Both are historic American companies founded on the premise of finding a solution to a problem, insoles for New Balance, durable coveralls for Levi’s®. Both have iconic products with 500 in the name, the 574 sneaker for New Balance and the 501® jeans for Levi’s®. It made sense that these two great American brands would finally come together on a collaboration.
The two brands have created a special edition Levi’s® x New Balance 1300 sneaker. Celebrating the traditional NB 1300 silhouette, which this year celebrates its 35th anniversary. The shoe is constructed using a combination of Levi’s® back patch-colored suede and deadstock White Oak XX52 denim, which was provided by Levi’s® from their limited stockpile. The White Oak Mill, which closed its doors at the end of 2017, was one of the last manufacturers to produce selvedge denim in the US. The New Balance 1300 is manufactured in Skowhegan, Maine which is one of the five New England manufacturing facilities that New Balance owns and operates. The combination of the two makes the Levi’s® x New Balance 1300 a must-have, authentically American sneaker.
Other details include orange accents, including a Levi’s® Orange Tab on the outside left foot, a White Oak woven label on the shoe tongue, and a special hang tag with a “Levi’s® for feet” logo, inspired by graphics from the New Balance and Levi’s® archives. The Levi’s® x New Balance sneakers also come in a special edition Levi’s® for feet and New Balance® orange and tan collector’s box.
These will be available on levis.com.au, newbalance.com.au, Above the Clouds (Sydney) and Up There Store (Melbourne) from tomorrow Friday the 24th of April 2020
