Ja Morant became the superstar he is today by repeatedly sinking jumpers on crooked rims, jumping on tractor tires and dribbling through traffic cones in steamy South Carolina summers. The Ja 1 is a testament to his rise. With an Air Zoom unit, it supports bunny hops and hyper speed without sacrificing comfort, so that you can control your own destiny on the court. This design celebrates Ja fulfilling his childhood dream by teaming up with Nike.
Personal Touch
Ja’s signature, logo and jersey number are sketched in his own handwriting.
Prepare for Liftoff
A forefoot Air Zoom unit helps provide increased responsiveness and vertical acceleration. Plush cushioning in the midsole provides comfort when you come back to Earth after skying in the clouds.
Land Softly
A containment system and forefoot strap help keep your ankle and heel stable, so that you’re in control and supported whether you’re changing direction at high speeds, springing toward the rim, or staying in front of shifty ball-handlers on defense.
