Splitting the left shoe from middle position
The JORDAN LUKA 2 A-A profile
Separating the vamp and midsole of right shoe
The splicing fabric and leather material vamp has good strength. The mesh fabric inner sleeve keeps the good air permeability and improve the comfort level.
The profile of heelpiece counter has corresponding radian which improve the fitness of heelpiece obviously. The connecting position of upper and insole is the thickest.
Let’s have a look at the covering area of LUKA 2 heel-piece counter from another angle.
The thickness of the EUR42.5 heelpiece thickest position is about 10.73mm.
The shoe-pad is upturning from arch to heelpiece, which can fit the feet better.
The reverse side of shoe-pad is glued from arch to heelpiece.
The length of EUR42.5 shoe-pad lower edge is about 270mm.
The width of EUR42.5 half-sole shoe-pad is about 93.49mm.
The thickness of EUR42.5 shoe-pad is about 5.44mm.
The non-woven material insole fabric
The reverse side of insole fabric is printed with product’s info.
Half sole: BB 21H / BB 24H, shoe-heel position: BB 21H / BB 24H/ DX9012
It uses full-length FORMULA 23.
There are a lot of grooves in the half-sole according to the direction of foot movement to improve the exercising flexibility.
It adds punching holes in the big toe position and heel-piece position.
The punching holes throughout the big toe position can increase the deforming space of foam.
The punching holes on the heel-piece.
The splash-ink insole is Cushlon 3.0 which extends from inner side of half-sole to arch position.
It uses FORMULA 23 as frame. The resilient feedback is good.
CUSHLON 3.0 foam can buffer the impact force when jumping the ground.

The thickness of EUR42.5 ISOPLATE system of outboard splash-ink position of outboard half-sole is about 2.77mm.
The thickness of EUR42.5 ISOPLATE system of outboard splash-ink position of outboard arch position is about 2.13mm.
The thickness of EUR42.5 ISOPLATE system of half-sole position is about 2.13mm.
The thickness of EUR42.5 ISOPLATE system of arch position is about 2.94mm.
The outsole uses full-length semi-transparent rubber. It has several grooves design according to the force direction of feet.
Since the change of Doncic’s footsteps depends more on the toes and the half-sole, the key stress position adopts the triangular pattern, and the herringbone pattern radiates from the center, and the grooving treatment is added to improve traction performance.
The thickness of EUR42.5 front outsole is about 3.62mm.
The thickness of EUR42.5 heel-piece sole is about 3.97mm.
The thickness of EUR42.5 LUKA 2 half-sole(insole+outsole) is about 18.62mm.
