Ja Morant

Ja Morant is an All-Star basketball player for the Memphis Grizzlies. In 2019, he signed with Nike Basketball to a multi-year endorsement deal, and on April 2023, his initial signature shoe officially launched. Ja is described as Nike’s first Gen-Z athlete; his first shoes — the Ja 1 — were moderately priced at $110 and are designed by Ben Nethongkome.

The season-ending injury he suffered in 2023-24 made a sequel more complicated, and the Nike Ja 1 stretched its lifespan a few months longer than the typical 12 months. First looks at the Ja 2 emerged in July, carrying a higher cut than its predecessor and pronounced ripples around the Swoosh on the upper.

The Nike Ja 2 debuts with the Ja 2 “Induction” in September, bringing a public release for a PE gifted to him at his Murray State Hall of Fame celebration. Additional colorways include the “Day Dreamer,” “Night Vision,” “Halloween” and “Christmas.”
