Built for Explosive Movement: Ja 3 Performance Features Across All Sizes
The Ja 3 lineup continues the legacy of performance that began with the original Nike Ja 1. Like all Ja Morant shoes, the “Lunar New Year” edition is built for high-energy play styles and quick-twitch moves on the court.
The Ja 3 offers multi-directional traction that grips hard for quick cuts and sudden stops. These latest basketball shoes also carry forward the enhanced stability of the Nike Ja 2, utilizing a flexible, reinforced mesh upper that allows freedom of movement without sacrificing balance.
The standout upgrade for the Ja 3 is the addition of Nike’s Hybrid ZoomX foam in the midsole. Originally designed to provide elite energy return for runners, this cushioning now allows hoopers to reap the benefits of extra bounce and impact protection.
The Nike Ja 3 “Lunar New Year” (LNY) is expected in both men’s and kids’ sizes. Men’s sizes are built for a performance-ready, secure fit; if you have wider feet, consider going up a half size. Kids’ Nike basketball shoes (available in GS, PS, and TD sizes) focus on flexibility and comfort for growing feet and typically run true-to-size.
