A mix of textile and leather construction across the upper takes on the titular “Soft Pink” hue, bringing some of summer into the colder months of the year. “Diffused Blue” enters the mix via the profile swooshes, tongue labels, and upper spine panels, seemingly a nod to the 24-year-old’s Memphis Grizzlies squad. Underfoot, the sole unit enjoys a light blue color combination that includes semi-translucent, icy traction.

What makes the Nike Ja 1?

-A mid-foot lockdown system provides the wearer with both a snug and secure fit amidst quick changes in direction.
– The forefoot has been loaded with Nike’s staple Air Zoom bag for an explosive sensation during takeoff
-Both the 0.25mm sidewall guardrail and cushioned foam collar of the low-top model have been raised to support both lifting off and landing. Additionally, zonal cushioning has been placed throughout the ankle construction for further reinforcement.
– Morant’s hands-on approach throughout the design process appears in the handwritten details with his signature on the backside of the tongue and heel counter while his daughter’s name is inscribed into the midsole.
– The lateral outrigger between the midsole and outsole has been shaped in the form of the letter “J”.
– The vamp and upper collar bear a breathable ballistic throughout while the #12 and “JA” can be seen amongst the macro perforations lining the forefoot mudguard overlay and heel underlay.
– Each forefoot is affixed with an asymmetrical toe guard while a herringbone traction pattern ensues along the tread underfoot.
– The insoles receive a hand-written message from Ja inscribed to his family, friends, haters, community, heroes and more with “Day 1” held within a calendar date box.

For this Nike Ja 1 “Fuel” iteration, the pair sports a bold “Ember Glow,” “Blue Lightning,” “Light Silver,” and “Black” color scheme. The titular hue is predominately featured throughout the silhouette’s mesh construction and reinforced midsole while contrasting blue arrives on the signature wrap-around Swooshes. Further elevating the pair are the “JA” insignias on the tongue tabs and insoles and the number “12” embroidered into the heels. Rounding out the final details is the white Zoom cushioned midsole and a black rubber outsole.

Named the “Light Smoke Grey” look, it appears as the most modest colorway to date with white, grey and black accented by hits of yellow at the tongue and heel branding. Rather than appearing with eye-catching graphics or vibrant hues, the left and right shoes favor different color arrangements. Both appear with a white mesh base, however the right shoe utilizes a light grey at its Swooshes and midfoot panel whereas the left appears with black Swooshes and dark grey panels. The right’s sole unit goes from off-white at the midsole to white at the outsole whereas the left goes from white to light grey. Additional elements from the laces to the lining similarly see swaps between the two to complete the look.

When it came time to select performance features tailored to Morant, three key benefits were desired: dynamic lockdown, a responsive forefoot and support for landing. Initially, Nethongkome and Morant shared stories and discussed their favorite basketball sneakers, developing a mutual understanding of what makes a shoe special. Following this, Nethongkome went on to study film, analyzing Morant’s movement – especially the cuts and leaps that he’s known for.

It was during a trip to Nike’s World Headquarters that Morant finally saw his dream come true, as he was presented with an all-black wear test sample of his sneaker. “Our meeting with Ja must have been 6 hours long, and he had his samples on from start to finish,” says Nethongkome, also noting that Morant wasted no time in taking his shoes to the court and brutally crossing up one of his trainers.

This offering of the Nike Ja 1 dubbed, “The One,” comes dressed in a Cobalt Bliss, Citron Tint, Hot Punch, Medium Soft Pink, and Diffused Blue color scheme. It features a mesh constructed upper with a reinforced midfoot, wrap-around gradient Swoosh, and graphic detailing along the heel. The Zoom cushioned low-top is designed to keep players in control, maximize hang time, and reduce landing force through lockdown benefits.

Morant’s first signature logo is inspired by his dynamic precision and determined approach to the game. A stylized “JA” sits atop a chevron, symbolic of Morant’s ability to rise above all obstacles.
