FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for outdoor basketball?

The Jordan Luka 2 trainers are optimized for indoor court performance. While they can be worn outdoors, the outsole may wear down faster, and traction might be reduced on rougher surfaces.

How do I clean the TPU cage?

You can clean the TPU cage and other parts of the shoe with a soft cloth lightly dampened with water. Mild soap can be used if necessary, followed by wiping with a clean damp cloth. Always air dry.

What is the main benefit of the Formula 23 foam?

Formula 23 foam provides superior cushioning and responsiveness, helping to absorb impact during high-intensity movements like jumping and landing, while also offering energy return for quick actions.

How does the TPU cage improve performance?

The TPU cage wraps around the upper of the shoe, providing a secure, locked-in fit that enhances lateral stability and support during quick cuts, changes of direction, and defensive movements.

What shoe size should I order?

These trainers are available in UK adult men's sizes. It is recommended to consult Nike's official sizing chart or try them on in person if possible, as fit can vary between individuals and models.

Can these trainers be used for other sports?

While designed for basketball, the cushioning and support features make them suitable for general training activities. However, for sports requiring specific ankle support or traction patterns, dedicated shoes are recommended.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable

Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring a snug but not constricting fit. Wear with appropriate athletic socks. If discomfort persists after a break-in period, consider if this is the correct size and width for your foot.

Traction feels reduced on court

Wipe the outsole with a damp cloth to remove dust and debris that can accumulate and reduce grip. Ensure the court surface is clean.

Laces come undone frequently

Tie the laces using a secure knot. Consider double-knotting them for extra security during intense play.

Foam cushioning feels too firm initially

The Formula 23 foam may require a short break-in period. Wear the shoes for a few training sessions to allow the foam to soften and adapt to your foot.
