Color:              Midnight Navy/Football Grey/Light Laser Orange

Ja Morant became the superstar he is today by repeatedly sinking jumpers on crooked rims, jumping on tractor tyres and dribbling through traffic cones in steamy South Carolina summers. The JA 1 is a testament to his rise. With Zoom Air, it supports bunny hops and hyper speed without sacrificing comfort so that you can control your own destiny on the court. This special design nods to a tasty snack that led to Ja's discovery and the fire that burns in his stomach to keep proving the haters wrong.

Behind the Design

When Ja wasn't picked first string at an elite summer camp, that might have been the end of his hoops career. But that's not how this story goes. He kept putting in work in an out-of-the-way gym, grinding in the shadows. All Ja needed was the right person to see his skills. The rest is history. Contrasting colours represent the endless determination and stroke of luck that, combined, led to Ja's big break.

Personal Touch

Ja's signature, logo and jersey number are sketched in his own handwriting.

Prepare for Lift-Off

A forefoot Zoom Air unit helps provide increased responsiveness and vertical acceleration. Plush cushioning in the midsole provides comfort when you come back to Earth after flying in the clouds.

Stay Supported

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 towards the rim or staying in front of pro ball-handlers on defence.
