Nike is gonna need a bigger boat. With Ja Morant moving to the brand’s backyard, the new Trail Blazer is exploring the great outdoors, biking, hiking, and hitting the water. As Nike continues to roll out Morant’s new Ja 4, the Swoosh is diving in with two retro movie themes: a Nightmare on 12 Street shoutout to Freddy Krueger, and a Jaws tribute pair that brings teeth to Morant’s new aquatic lifestyle.
