Jordan is making a statement with the all-new Luka 5. Luka Doncic is having a career season in his first full year with the Lakers, and his latest signature sneaker is drawing as much attention to the Slovenian superstar as possible. After Luka debuted the colorway on Christmas Day, we have an official look at the Luka 5 Premium Illusion Green.
The Jordan Luka 5 Premium Illusion Green is the second slime green colorway of the new Luka we’ve seen so far, but this time around, the shoe goes even further, adding a full dip of illusion green, with the only contrast coming from bright red branding. From the midsole to the tip of the tongue, the colorway is drenched in the kind of bright green that makes every step stand out. The Luka tongue logo, Jumpman on the lateral midsole, and parts of the outsole are all infrared for hits of classic Jordan Brand color.

Don’t let the color fool you, though, the new Luka is packed with performance for real hoopers, bringing together Cushlon 3.0, Air Zoom Strobel, and IsoBand tech to push the future of comfort and foot-locked traction. Is this the best Luka silhouette yet?
The Jordan Luka 5 Premium Illusion Green will be released January 8, 2026 through Nike and select Jordan retailers in-store and online. Available in men’s sizing, the retail price is set at $145. For all the latest Jordan Luka news, download the Sole Retriever mobile app.
