Ja Morant continues to bypass sneaker leakers by teasing upcoming Nike Ja 3 colorways himself, this time putting us on to his latest collaboration with Kool-Aid.
First teased by Ja on Christmas Eve, the Ja 3 “Kool-Aid” features a mismatched design inspired by pink lemonade, basically confirmed by the background of Ja’s first-look images. The left shoe comes with a Pink Beam upper, while the right decks out in attention-grabbing Lemon Venom. Most of the other elements, namely the lining, tongue, and midsole, take after the Kool-Aid logo in Deep Royal Blue. We’ll draw your attention to the “A” detailing next to the Swooshes on each shoe, which are done in solid Hyper Pink and Light Green Spark TPU placements rather than falling into the larger repeating Ja Morant logo pattern. The Kool-Aid Man enters the scene on the left tongue, while the right presumably features Ja’s signature logo.
This continues a theme of Kool-Aid x Ja Morant shoe collaborations from the Ja 2, which dropped in two Kool-Aid-inspired styles last year, one mismatched like the Ja 3 seen here. It remains to be seen if another Kool-Aid x Ja 3 is in the works as of this writing.
The Kool-Aid x Nike Ja 3 “Pink Lemonade” is on track for a Spring/Summer 2026 release via Nike SNKRS. See detailed pics below and stay tuned for further updates.
