Li-Ning DLO 2 "Disciple" — Black Colorway
SKU: ABPW013-3 | D'Angelo Russell Signature | Released April 1, 2026
Step into the second chapter of D'Angelo Russell's signature line. The Li-Ning DLO 2 "Disciple" in sleek all-black is built for the shifty guard — the player who lives in the space between defenders, changes direction on a dime, and demands precision with every step. This is a shoe that moves when you move.
⚡ Full-Length Li-Ning BOOM Foam
Experience exceptional energy return and impact protection underfoot. The BOOM foam midsole delivers a responsive, bouncy feel that fuels explosive first steps and quick lateral cuts without sacrificing cushioning on hard landings.
🏀 GCU Rubber Outsole — Ground Control Unit
Cast polyurethane rubber provides elite-level grip on both indoor hardwood and outdoor courts. Excellent slip resistance and long-lasting durability make the DLO 2 a reliable performer across every surface.
🛡️ Double TPU Shank + Lateral Outrigger
A double TPU shank plate locks in torsional rigidity while a significant lateral outrigger guards against ankle rolls during hard cuts and directional changes — protection you can feel without the bulk.
🔒 Segmented Lacing + Heel Counter Lockdown
The beaded lacing system and robust heel counter work together to keep your foot fully contained and secure, so your shoe moves with you — not against you.
Materials & Build
- Upper: Synthetic leather, textile, and TPU blend for lightweight breathability and structural durability
- Profile: Low-top silhouette for maximum ankle mobility and enhanced court feel
- Colorway: Predominantly black — clean, versatile, and built for the spotlight
Fit Guide
The DLO 2 runs true to size with a narrow performance fit. Players with wider feet may want to consider going half a size up for optimal comfort.
- Narrow to Normal Feet: Run True to Size (TTS). The shoe provides a snug, 1-to-1 performance lockdown fit with zero heel slippage.
- Wide Feet / High Insteps: Size up half a size (+0.5 US). The midfoot TPU structure and sleek forefoot taper do not stretch significantly, making it restrictive for wider foot profiles.
- Break-in Period: Expect a stiff feel out of the box. The BOOM foam and TPU midfoot shank typically require 2–3 intense hoop sessions to fully conform to your foot shape.
