If you’ve watched any preps or youth basketball games lately, you’ve probably noticed that the current sneaker trend isn’t necessarily a brand as much as it is a “look” these days. That look? Flashy. The NBA famously changing its uniform rules to allow players to wear sneakers that don’t match their uniforms in 2018 has trickled down to every level. Now, it’s less about the perfect pair to match your jersey and more about standing out while you get buckets. A major trend that has emerged is mix-matching kicks to take the flashiness to another level. Nike and Ja Morant have noticed, and the Ja 1 “Day” release helps you skip a step to achieve that look.
The pair comes in a Vapor Green left and Bright Mandarin right with all the signature details expected from the explosive star’s debut signature sneaker. Those include Ja’s signature, logo, and jersey number, which are sketched in his handwriting, a forefoot Air Zoom, and a containment system and forefoot strap help keep your ankle and heel stable. The Nike Ja 1 “Day” is available 4/19 at 7:00 AM PDT.
