Jan 7, 2026

A new Nike Ja 3 is coming on January 20th, and it’s a special drop that is a must-cop for any collector or Morant fan. The new “12 Time” colorway has an inspiring backstory and a rich vibe, with a vibrant turquoise hue and top-notch elements. 

Get all the details on this January 20th drop and find out how his newest shoe is a beautiful representation of what it means to Morant. 

A Standout Green Colorway Built Around Ja’s Electric Style

The Nike Ja 3 “12 Time” sneaker is yet another design that’s inspired by Morant’s personal life. Though the shoes will only be offered in men's sizes right now, the bright turquoise hue, purple accents and orange details pay homage to his Boys and Girls AAU team, called the Twelve Time. These Ja Morant shoes are rooted in his inspiring role in his community, which extends to his cultural impact in the basketball world. 

Like all the Ja Morant basketball shoes, the Nike Ja 3 will feature mini Ja Morant logos in the design. His logo is his name, “JA,” in a triangular shape that’s been incorporated into the Nike Ja 1 and Nike Ja 2 basketball shoes. You can see the small triangle logo all over the upper, adding texture and ensuring the shoe is distinctly Ja Morant’s.

The iconic Nike Swoosh is even turned about 90º, so it looks more like a “J,” ensuring that the shoe literally has “Ja” written all over it.

Lightweight, Explosive Performance for Fast, Confident Play

The Nike Ja 1 basketball shoes represent Morant's on-court style. With the Ja 3 sneakers, the new design continues to capture his flair and fearlessness. 

The Nike Ja Morant 3 shoe is super lightweight, making it perfect for players and sneakerheads who love to stay light on their feet. The Nike Ja 2's are made with two layers of ZoomX foam, offering cushioning and support without weighing you down. The triangular traction pattern also helps grip a variety of surfaces, so you feel steady on slick sidewalks, squeaky courts and everything in between. 

These thoughtfully designed shoes are perfect for adults who live hard and play hard. And, at just $125, they’re also a budget-friendly Nike Ja model.
