Built for Speed. Engineered for the Court.

The Li-Ning Light Speed 3 is an ultra-lightweight performance basketball shoe designed for quick, agile guards and forwards who demand explosive multi-directional cuts, a close-to-the-ground court feel, and relentless speed. Released for the Spring/Summer 2025 season, the series draws its sharp aesthetic from the sleek, geometric architecture of London's iconic Shard skyscraper.
