Ja Morant

Ja Morant is an All-Star basketball player for the Memphis Grizzlies. In 2019, he signed a multi-year endorsement deal with Nike Basketball, and in 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 were designed by Ben Nethongkome.

His season-ending injury in 2023-24 made a sequel more complicated, and the Nike Ja 1 stretched its lifespan a bit 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 debuted 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. Fresh inline colorways appear on a consistent basis, but Morant is prepared to step his latest signature up via collaboration, including the Kool-Aid Ja 2, and an ever-healthy slate of vibrant outfits.
