Ja Morant has made explosive highlight plays look like a regular day's work, doing so in recent years wearing his signature sneaker line with Nike. One such highlight occurred during the 2022 NBA Playoffs (back when Ja was rocking the Nike Kobe 6), when Ja dunked over Malik Beasley, making Ian Eagle exclaim, “Ja-Breaker!” This call and Morant's love for Jawbreaker candy have inspired the latest colorway of the Nike Ja 2.
Like the candy, the entire upper is bathed in a soothing white hue, splattered with a multi-color barrage of paint. This coats the mudguard, mesh toebox and medial midfoot, synthetic molded lateral midfoot, the laces, tongue, and heel. A gradient yellow Swoosh on the lateral side contrasts with the white look, transitioning from yellow to white as you move back.
