Ja Morant has taken the rollout strategy for his Nike Ja 3 by the horns this time around, both unofficially letting loose far-ahead previews and, in his most aggressive move yet, providing SLAM the full buffet of colorway options for the opening half of his latest signature. As we turn our eyes from Summer to Fall, some of the yearly commemorative holiday editions are beginning to creep onto the horizon, with the Nike Ja 3 “Halloween” set to be a real attention-grabber this October.
Rather than the traditional orange and black scheme, the Nike Ja 3 “Halloween” opts for something far more ghoulish, overtaken by radioactive green and yellow that crests with a hazy, marbled pattern on the underlying mesh foundation. Really driving home the spooky overtones is a creative touch on the interior, where Morant joins the ranks of the undead on a full-length graphic insole; also the case for a set of fang dubraes and a twisted Ja logo on the tongue. Lastly, under light you’ll see this shoe become entirely impossible to miss, as the sole and Ja chevron logos on the upper feature a glow-in-the-dark finish.
The complete slate is yet to fully come into view just yet, but stockists have indicated that the KD 18 “Halloween” and a potential new version of the Book 1 will accompany this shoe for spooky season. As for the Nike Ja 3 “Halloween” itself, look forward to this version touching down on October 21st, retailing for $140.
