Ja Morant Ja 1 "Scratch"
Basketball Shoes
Ja Morant became the superstar he is today by repeatedly sinking jumpers on crooked rims, jumping on tractor tires and dribbling through sun-stained traffic cones in steamy South Carolina summers. The Ja 1 is a testament to his rise. With Air Zoom cushioning, it supports bunny hops and hyper speed without sacrificing comfort, so that you can control your own destiny on the court, Ja-style. This special design pays homage to Ja’s favorite dunk and his organization’s heritage.
Grind City-Raised
The bear claw-like slashes on the upper and midsole pay homage to the "backscratcher," Ja's famed two-handed, rim-rattling dunk. Plus, we turned back the clock with classic color nods to his team's beginnings that complement the growling, far-from-hibernating details that are straight out of mid-'90s nostalgia.
Personal Touch
Ja’s signature, logo and jersey number are sketched in his own handwriting.
Prepare for Liftoff
A forefoot Air Zoom unit helps provide increased responsiveness and vertical acceleration. Plush cushioning in the midsole provides comfort when you come back to Earth after skying in the clouds.
Stay Supported
A containment system and forefoot strap help keep your ankle and heel stable, so that you’re in control and supported whether you’re changing direction at high speeds, springing toward the rim or staying in front of shifty ball-handlers on defense.
Lightweight, breathable material on the upper helps keep your feet cool.
Raised foam collar adds ankle support.
