Jovani Hernandez The Nike Ja 1 was unveiled on December 25, 2022 during an NBA game against the Golden State Warriors. Temetrius Jamel “Ja” Morant and his Memphis Grizzlies squad lost, but the guard had all eyes on him for his performance and shoes.
With the NBA Playoffs less than 10 days away, the Swoosh and Morant are finally launching #12’s first signature model at retailers. A “Trivia”-themed pair covered in “Phantom” and more vibrant colors will follow up the debut style: the Nike Ja 1 “Day One.” The “Action Green,” “Grape,” and “White”-accented sequel features a number of trivia-style-questions across the upper heel and sockliner, nodding to game nights Morant and his family had while growing up. Tongue labels and outsoles deviate from their surroundings in a vibrant gold tone, further drawing attention to the low-top basketball shoe.
Enjoy detailed photos of the pair ahead (as well as of a Player-Exclusive version of the “Trivia” theme). The multi-color Ja 1 launches via nike.com and other retailers on May 4 for $110 USD.
