Jordan Brand is giving their athletes participating in the Tokyo Olympics their own Player Exclusive Air Jordan 36 colorways, including Luka Dončić, Jayson Tatum, Rui Hachimura, Guo Ailun, and Kia Nurse. The materials on each pair is a mix of a mesh upper with suede hits, tumbled leather, and a ZOOM Air Unit to create a mix of performance and comfort.
The Air Jordan 36 “Luka” PE comes in the color blocking of Blue, White, and Green to match Slovenia’s Olympic jerseys. Some could say this PE is also Dallas Mavericks inspired since the colors are the same. A new Luka “LD77” logo is located the left tongue while a Jumpman is on the right tongue. Some other details include a blue-speckled midsole and a translucent outsole.
The “Jayson Tatum” PE is dressed in America’s red, white, and blue while sporting a “JT” logo on the left tongue. A Jumpman is placed on the right tongue followed by a navy blue-speckled midsole with a gold hit on the back. This colorway also includes an iced out translucent outsole.
The “Rui Hachimura” PE is put up in red, black and white, the colors of Japan’s basketball jerseys. The colorway also features Rui’s “H” logo on the left tongue, a Jumpman logo on the right tongue, followed by a black-speckled midsole and translucent outsole.
Professional Chinese basketball player Guo Ailun’s PE is decked out in China’s red and yellow. Guo’s “G15” logo is on the left tongue and a Jordan Brand logo on the right tongue. The yellow-speckled midsole is paired up with a translucent outsole.
Canadian basketball player Kia Nurse got a Air Jordan 36 PE dressed in Canadian red and white. Her “KN” logo is also on the left tongue and like all the others, the Jumpman is on the right tongue. Other features include a plain red and white midsole followed by a translucent outsole.
