Luka Doncic Adds the El Matador Design on the Air Jordan 36
Jordan Brand offers a new special design of the Air Jordan 36 by celebrating the famed player Luka Doncic -- creating the El Matador colorway. It commemorates the player's nickname. The shoe has a bold tonal palette throughout the entire silhouette as it blends together hues of Chile Red, Metallic Gold, Black, and University Red.
The athlete has played for Real Madrid, and the palette means to capture that. The construction sees an all-red base foundation with details arriving in gold inspired by traditional bullfighting costumes. Additional details include the stitched 'El Matador" by the back heel tabs. Rounding out the shoes are the gold lace tips and a red outsole unit foundation.
