Ja Morant’s time at Nike has seen the Memphis Grizzlies star land himself three signature performance basketball sneakers, but now it's time for off-the-court collabs. Earlier this week, Sole Retriever confirmed that a yellow Nike Air Force 1 shared by Morant on his Instagram after vowing to start leaking his sneakers was set to release in the Holiday 2025 season. Now, alongside this AF1 is a luxe Swarovski-covered iteration.
From the beginning of Ja Morant’s sneaker releases with Nike, his sneakers have been getting Swarovski makeovers. One of the first colorways of the Nike Ja 1, the Midnight rendition, dropped in ultra-limited quantities around NBA All-Star, while the Ja 2 received two different makeovers. One was in a Scratch variant, and another was coated primarily in crystals. As for this AF1, Morant may have given us an early look at the pair on his Instagram earlier this year in a similar fashion to the aforementioned yellow AF1.
