Original article published September 18th, 2025:
Before taking over the signature basketball shoe conversation with his newly debuted Nike Ja 3, Ja Morant caught our eye back in January with a Ja 2 and Air Force 1 PE collection. The sneakers featured bold yellow colorways etched with the words “Let Me Be Ja” — relaying a message first delivered at Ja’s post-suspension press conference in 2023. At the time, the sneakers felt like a one-off. But as revealed in a July info dump teasing multiple Ja Morant Air Force 1 releases, the Forces are indeed heading to retail. Now official images let us know exactly what to expect.
The sneaker mirrors Morant’s original PE with an eye-catching yellow leather upper featuring stitched text reading “Let Me Be Ja” on the medial side, accompanied by a mini black Swoosh instead of the traditional large Swoosh. The lateral side flips the script with a double-Swoosh setup, pairing black over yellow, while Morant’s signature logo is debossed near the heel.
A closer look reveals rainbow multicolor stitching running across the upper, adding depth and personality. The tongue and backtab are cut from black leather, evoking a Wu-Tang or Bruce Lee sneaker sort of vibe, while Ja’s “1 of 1” mark appears on metallic silver lace dubraes. The tongue tags display Ja Morant x Nike co-branding, while the heel tab carries his signature “12:AM” detail — a staple across his performance line.
With this release, Morant joins LeBron James, Devin Booker, and Kobe Bryant among Nike athletes to earn their own Air Force 1 releases. Considering the early buzz around the Nike Ja 3 as a Basketball Sneaker of the Year candidate, the timing feels perfect to expand Morant’s influence onto Nike’s most iconic lifestyle model.
The Ja Morant x Nike Air Force 1 Low “Let Me Be Ja” launches Holiday 2025, priced at $125. Stay tuned for updates on retailers and purchase links.
