Nike Basketball and Ja Morant are back with a tribute to the past. The new Nike Ja 2 “Murray State” colorway celebrates Ja’s days at Murray State University.

Dressed in school spirit, the pair features a clean white mesh upper. Gold accents wrap around the midsole, fading smoothly into white. Navy blue details on the collar and Swoosh tie the look together.

Adding a college vibe, the fuzzy chenille Swoosh mimics varsity letters. The colorway mirrors Murray State’s uniforms, though not officially branded as such.

Comfort remains key with Zoom Air cushioning and a durable midsole design. Traction comes from a grippy rubber outsole, ideal for indoor courts.

Other details include “12 AM” on the heel, a nod to Ja’s grind. The tongue shows his personal logo, keeping the design bold yet meaningful.

The Nike Ja 2 “Murray State” releases on April 18, 2025. You can grab a pair from Nike Basketball stores and Nike.com for $140 USD.

This release connects Ja’s journey from college to stardom. The Ja 2 “Murray State” is more than a sneaker—it’s a story.
