Luka Dončić is cooking again—and this time, it’s not just defenders he’s leaving in the dust. Meet the Luka 4 “Navidor”, the latest from his signature line that brings flair, flash, and floral fun.

The Luka 4 shows up in navy blue, trimmed with crisp white mesh on the toe box and sides. Add shiny metallic silver on the tongue and heel, and you’ve got some serious sci-fi vibes. Now toss in a pink outsole, a pink Luka logo, and insoles with floral patterns—and boom, you’re styling like Luka in a EuroLeague fashion show.

But wait, there’s more! The Luka .77 comes along for the ride, wearing a hot pink outsole just like the 4s. However, it ditches the blue and silver and goes full ninja in all black. This pair looks ready to break ankles—and hearts.

Both sneakers balance performance with personality. They’re flashy without trying too hard—just like Luka himself.

The “Navidor” Luka 4 and Luka .77 release July 8, 2025, via Nike.com and select retailers.

The Air Jordan 3 “Starfish” is coming in hot—and not just because of that spicy orange! This women’s exclusive is heating up July 2025 with a design that blends beach-ready vibes and street-savvy flair.

The upper ditches the usual leather for a rugged textile-canvas that says, “I’m stylish, but I also do DIY.” Fossil-colored shaggy suede adds some fuzzy contrast, while the real pop comes from those Starfish orange hits on the mudguard, sockliner, and Jumpman branding. It’s like your favorite creamsicle went high fashion.

Notice something missing? That’s right—no elephant print. Don’t worry, though, this clean, modern take more than makes up for it. A cream midsole with visible Air cushioning and a semi-translucent outsole round out the build, giving these Jordans a finish that’s as crisp as a summer white tee.
