Launched in April 2023, the Ja 1 is the first Nike basketball signature sneaker of NBA star Ja Morant. The low top sneaker quickly became a favorite of the sneaker community and basketball players alike, boasting a variety of unique colors and styles in the first year of the sneaker's initial launch.
Ja 1 sneakers include a plush foam sole which reduces impact upon landing, and is designed with changing direction in mind. The sneaker also has a lightweight mesh upper, rubber sole, and foam around the ankle to provide additional support. Ja Maront follows a storied history of Nike signature sneaker athletes, including Michael Jordan, LeBron James, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Kyrie Irving, Kevin Durant, Paul George, and more. Ja sneakers are sized in men's sizes, but are suitable for men and women basketball players alike.
The first ever Ja 1 colorway is titled "Day One" and features a light blue upper with pink and yellow accents to the sole and swoosh. As is common with the Ja 1, Morant's signature is printed on the heel, leaving no doubt that this is truly a one of a kind performance basketball sneaker.
