Nike's previous Ja sneakers were beasts, with the "scratch marks" to match. But the Nike Ja 3 is a different animal. It's got its own "mink" coat.

Okay, so the latest Ja 3 isn't exactly swaddled in mink fur. However, it would look good and runway-ready in a fur jacket.

Instead, Nike is releasing a new Ja 3 in "Mink Brown," which matches the color of the furry animal.

Also nicknamed "Showstopper," the fresh color scheme indeed draws draws more attention to the shoe's impressive design, which includes a vertical Swoosh on the side, even cushier materials, and textured "scratches" throughout.

The Ja 3 also features a new Hybrid Zoom X cushioned sole. Ja Morant calls the Nike tech "jet fuel" as it makes the 2025 model extremely bouncy, far more responsive than any other Ja Morant sneaker to date.

Morant and Nike have delivered nice, luxury-level signature shoes before, including Tiffany-inspired designs and pairs dripped out in Swarovski crystals.

The pairing is now locking in with this lovely "Mink Brown" Ja 3, which is scheduled to drop on October 15 on Nike's website for $125.
