Ja Morant Just Unveiled the Nike Ja 4

Ja Morant is always one step ahead of the leakers. With plans for the Nike Ja 4 long in the works, the Memphis point guard wasn’t going to wait around for someone else to spoil the news. Today, Ja popped up on social media with a full rollout of his fourth signature shoe, posting five colorways of the new silhouette, an on-foot image, and, for some unexplained reason, a photoshopped picture of him holding the shoes to his head.

The Nike Ja 4 is yet another hit from Ja’s signature line, following up the incredibly strong run of Ja 3s that have dominated basketball courts at every level for the past year. With the Ja 4, Morant keeps the armored upper theme and “JA” logo side panel, but switches up the silhouette drastically in look and feel.

The upper features an all-over texture to add protection, but skips the repeating monogram of the Ja 3. The “JA” side panel logo is made by combining a large Swoosh on the lateral heel at the “J” and a triangle-shaped forefoot stabilizing panel that forms an “A.” The lace panel is all contained internally beneath the upper, except for the top lace loop, which pops out for increased lockdown.

In his post, Ja showed off the shoe in five colorways: two-tone icy blue, green, blue, and gold, blue gradient and metallic red, pink and gold, and a black and silver combo. The Nike Ja 4 will be released Fall 2026 through Nike and select retailers in-store and online. Available in men’s sizing, the retail price is set at $130.
