The “JA” hit on the lateral side is made up of a vertical Swoosh in orange for the “J” and a mix of the black stripes for the “A”, keeping the shoe’s large branding hit intact. The Nike logo on the ZoomX unit in the lateral midsole is also orange, with a sharp, striking font like tiger teeth. Finally, the word “Instinct” is added to the heel, replacing the “Twelve” text.
