The Nike Ja 1 first released back in February 2023 and has seen numerous iterations in terms of colorways and themes. Often drawing from Ja Morant's personal style, the shoes have commemorated his “We ain't ducking no smoke” quotes and even his icy blue grills he had custom-made. Now, Nike has released the latest colorway in the Nike Ja 1 line, titled “Light Silver” for its sleek hues and sharp design.

Nike Ja 1 “Light Silver”

The newest Nike Ja 1 “Light Silver” is named after its style code, which reads Light Silver/Cyber-Cyber-Cool Grey-Granite. We see the uppers of the design take a monotone approach with the different hues of grey throughout. We see slight contrasts between the uppers, Nike swoosh, and heel, creating a solid and clean grey color scheme. The shoes are highlighted by the Cyber-colored neon bottoms, adding a whole new element to this color palette. These match perfectly with the Memphis Grizzlies' jerseys and we could see Morant rocking these in-game when he returns next season.

The Nike Ja 1 “Light Silver” is currently available for purchase at Nike and all Nike retailers. Coming in at $120 retail, they're an extremely affordable option for hoopers of all levels and have been widely available in retail settings. They're also one of the cleaner looking basketball sneakers on the market right now, so don't miss your chance to rock these on the court!
