[Jordan Brand](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pink-lotus) continues to work alongside basketball star Luka Doncic and expand its range with the latest University Red colorway that details the Luka 1 sneaker model. It has a [bright red base](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fire-red-colorway) foundation and is detailed with hints of metallic gold throughout for a touch of contrast.

It has a [low-cut silhouette](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/air-jordan-1-low-3) this time around and is made from the brand's new IsoPlate system. It rests on top of the full-length Formula23 foam unit in order to provide support and more response around the midsole sections. The material that is used allows the shoe to feel lightweight with the Flightwire frame cables added to the lateral side of the shoe for more structure and breathability.
