The Nike Ja 2 Nightmare is focused on all the aspects that made Ja Morant an NBA star. It's designed to provide lots of responsive support for quick turns, with a bouncy feel in the sole to help you get up high.

This model upgrades the Nike Ja 1 with extra padding at the ankles and a characteristic waterfall collar lining. The nightmare colorway features a shiny red upper with contrasting black swathes that give a racing stripes effect. The under-sole traction pattern is modeled on the lorry tires that Ja trained with as a youngster.

Our experts like this new version of a shoe that made a real splash when it was first introduced. It's extremely visually attractive, but what makes it special is the underlying technology. It features modern gizmos like a sidewall guardrail and a dynamic ankle sleeve for optimal on-court performance. The Nike Ja 2 Nightmare was released on 25 October 2024 and retailed at $120.
