The shoe is currently out in Europe. It will be available to the public from 3rd October later this year. The shoe pays tribute to his country, and also his time with the Real Madrid basketball team. The price of the shoe is expected to be around $110 USD. However, it will only be available at selected Nike outlets. Hence, the prices might rise when sneakerheads start to resell.
The 23-year-old star has been at the top of his game for a years now. He is one of the best players in the NBA at such a young age. And the best part is that Luka is still getting better as time passes. At this rate, he will cement his place at one of the league’s all-time greats.
