The more things change, the more things stay the same. With the latest Luka Dončić shoe in the Jordan Luka 4 approaching six months on shelves, the Jumpman is reprising a theme that’s been in place since day one with a “Safari” colorway on September 20th.
Just like “Safari” takes on the Luka 1 through 3, the Luka 4 here incorporates the synonymous print that debuted on Tinker Hatfield’s Nike Air Safari back in ’87. The spots change in size across the tongue, heel, and sides, all of which appear in “Black/Anthracite.” Importantly, this is the first “Safari” Luka Dončić shoe to feature black as its primary color. A salmon-esque “Orange Pulse” shade looms over the forefoot, while “Electric Green” livens up the outsole. Key elements like the triangular heel accent (representing Slovenia) and a stitched heart on the inner tongue (representing Luka’s connection to his daughter) remain in place as usual.
The Jordan Luka 4 “Safari” releases September 20th via nike.com and retailers, priced at $145. See official images below if you’re considering copping.
