Ja Morant just Posted Two Never-Before-Seen Nike Ja 3 Colorways

Ja Morant isn’t playing in this year’s NBA All-Star Game, but his Nike Ja 3 signature shoe definitely made this season’s all-star basketball sneaker roster. Ja has Swarovski Crystal-covered Ja 3s and Air Force 1s, plus a metallic cobalt blue Ja 3 from the All-Star Warning Pack dropping next weekend in LA for All-Star Weekend, but that wasn’t enough for the Memphis star.

Morant took to Instagram this week to once again beat the leakers to the punch, showing off two never-before-seen colorways of the Nike Ja 3. The first matches the Warning Label pack in an iridescent shimmer of color-changing teal, with shiny metallic accents on the JA Swoosh logo and a two-tone translucent and red on the midsole.

The second pair looks to us like a sample from the Nike Ja 3 Jurassic Park pack. The orange and black shoe features a black base with a grey to orange gradient on the TPU monogram overlay. We can’t see much more from the single photo that Morant posted, but the Jurassic Park logo is clear as day on the tongue.

From what we can tell, both pairs look to be PEs or samples, with neither showing up on the Nike catalog for upcoming release. You never know, though, either or both could hit shelves sometime down the line. For all the latest Nike Ja 3 news and drop info, download the Sole Retriever mobile app.
