Ja Morant’s Ja 1 shoe, despite his suspension, reigns supreme in the basketball footwear market. The Nike Ja 1 CNY is set to be a part of this year’s Chinese New Year festivities.

This Nike Ja 1 edition rocks a color combo of White, Game Royal, and Pure Platinum. It’s crafted from a mix of mesh, leather, and ripstop materials. The Metallic Gold accents shine on the Swooshes, heel tab, lace dubraes, and midfoot, embracing the Chinese New Year’s spirit. Morant’s signature “TMT” logo in Blue graces the lateral heel under the ripstop section. You’ll spot that cool Blue tone on the tongue tag’s logo too. For performance, the sneaker boasts a White and Blue Air Zoom-cushioned midsole atop a Blue rubber outsole to complete the design.
