Nike Ja 1 | Ja Morant’s First Signature Shoe

[WASHED KING]

Ja likes to play in Kobe’s and older KD models and his shoe is definitely influenced by those.

I like them.

If all the color ways are like the first couple we’ve seen, these may be a problem for me and my wallet.

Midsole kinda reminds me of the Air Trainer 1s…but these are definitely a cop on first day. Considering that Ja is a player with a lot of personality I expect the colorways to be fun.

I couldn't put my finger on it earlier but the mesh and the shape makes them look a little like a metcon

I cannot believe they didn’t shock drop today but I assume they’re not done since they don’t drop till April

The notification I got from Nike suggests they'll be a shock drop or 2 before the official launch.

Sometime soon and/or all-star weekend maybe?

Edit: On the Nike app you can follow players and teams. Following Ja might be a good idea

That colorway is dope. I like the pink and aqua mixing into each other. Colorways will make this model, too simple still and still missing that key design cue but its cool.

They look pretty cool. From the looks, lightweight, FF zoom air and aggressive herring bone traction. It’s basically a budget Kobe model. Far less tech, but im sure they’ll do good on court.

Before his big Kobe run he was also playing in a lot of Kyrie’s, kind of a mix between the three imo

Meh… and colorway is awful… did Khaled help?

 

[pharaohrache]

This is a good first model IMO. The cushioning setup will determine how many I buy, something a little bigger than the PG 1 would be perfect for ball. The Christmas pair look nice sans the "ducking smoke" quote, and the initial Grizzly color way looks good as well, what's with the 12AM on them though? Midnight release? Wish they had a proper Christmas sneaker but looking forward to the ASG color way.

Overall, good job Nike.

I like em. Cushion setup will play a big part in buying a pair or not.

thought for sure there’d be a shock drop tonight based on their cryptic description about the april release

they really dropped the ball not doing that

i been kinda out the game for a while…were there ANY christmas releases this year?

maybe i’m old but growing up seeing the alpha era and now these designs is pretty sad

Instant cop

Aqua laces on those would be nice
