Jordan Brand Crafts Mavericks-Themed "Team Colors" PEs for Luka Dončić
Dončić’s new Air Jordan 35s and React Elevations boast a retro Mavs color palette.
After revealing PEs for Jayson Tatum, Zion Williamson and Carmelo Anthony in recent days, Jordan Brand has presented two “Team Colors” player edition styles for Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Dončić. Consisting of an Air Jordan 35 and a React Elevation, the Dončić-exclusive shoes earn their name by pulling from the Mavs’ green, navy and white color scheme, mixing elements of their standard and Hardwood Classics jerseys.
Air Jordan 35s apply shades of blue both bright and oceanic to the midfoot’s Flightwire and Eclipse Plate, while also dispersing them across the throat, Air Jordan 5-style tongue, heel tab and midsole. Neon green is used as a secondary color, appearing atop the tongue, under the aforementioned midfoot Flightire, on the eyestays, in the laces and over the outsole. White mudguards, heel pieces and toeboxes complete the look.
On the other end the React Elevation uses white mesh quarter panels, moving the blue shades mostly to the heel and the neon green to the toe, tongue and throat. A light blue fabric strip runs from the tip of the toe all the way up to the throat before turning into the tongue tab, with navy laces and a bright green Jumpman adding further flair. Two-tone midsoles round things off.
Neither pair will see a retail release, as both were designed exclusively for Dončić. However, if Doncic continues to play at his current level — through eight games he’s averaging 27.6 PPG, 9 RPG and 8 APG — he may very well need an MVP PE at season’s end.
