Luka 5

The Luca 5’s were a surprisingly very comfortable shoe right out of the box. I did a couple of indoor pick up games where the traction surprised me. They felt very responsive and comfortable after hours of playing. I also decided to take them to Work after a 12 hour shift I decided I would definitely keep my eyes out for new color ways.

The Jordans Luka 5, run a bit small and can be a tight fit to wear. Sizing up half a number is a must unfortunately. I like these shoes the way they look and the color way is on point to wear with everything in and out the basketball court. The mesh and the air jump man on the side just add to the look of this shoe. Is stealthy, yet makes you turn around and take another look at them. Overall these shoes provide amazing support to your feet. The sock lining not only hugs your feet, but it adds protection to your ankles. The sole is responsive and you can feel the cushion doing its job with every step. The sole provides great traction and grip for sudden turns and I love that orange-red on the bottom, it just pops. The 5’s just work and I hope they fit better as I wear them down.

The shoe felt almost impossible to slide my right flat foot into!!! I kept loosening the shoe laces until I could finally move the tongue around. And even then, I had to use my fingers push my heel in. Once I got them on, it did feel very supportive on my ankles, which I absolutely need. A little tight on the middle right of my flat foot so I did start to feel some slight pain. Very easy to move around in, however. The design was a little underwhelming on the outside, but I LOVED the bottom of the shoe, and wished some elements of the bright hot pink was on the outside of the shoe. But I mean, can't go wrong with black shoes. They can be worn with any fit. Quality of the shoe I think is really good and feels thick and strong and able to withstand hard movements like jumping and agility exercises. I would change how hard it is to actually get my foot inside the shoe, but I really liked the design on the bottom of the shoe. I think the shoe does run just a tad bit small.
