Get ready for the arrival of the Nike Ja 2 “Scratch” in a striking Rapid Teal, dropping in May 2025. This eagerly awaited release draws inspiration from the iconic Memphis Grizzlies jerseys, reminiscent of the bold designs seen in Ja Morant’s initial signature shoes.

About the Nike Ja 2 “Scratch”

Following the legacy of the original Ja 1 “Scratch” and the bold Ja 2 “Black Label” done with Swarovski, this iteration maintains a similar assertive vibe. Instead of actual claw marks, Nike has incorporated sharp black overlays, offering a sleeker aesthetic suitable for both on-court performance and everyday wear. The Nike Ja 2 “Scratch” still exudes a fierce energy, now with enhanced versatility.

The sneaker showcases a vibrant Rapid Teal upper, sharply contrasted by University Red Swooshes and Ale Brown detailing on the tongue branding. These color choices symbolize Ja Morant’s aggressive playing style and dauntless attitude. A crisp white midsole provides visual balance and features scratch graphics that appear to cut through it. The heel displays the “12:AM” motif, another reference to Ja’s relentless dedication and constant hustle. For peak performance during quick movements, Zoom cushioning is integrated into the sole.

Release Details

Priced at US$140, the Nike Ja 2 “Scratch” in Rapid Teal will be available for purchase via Nike.com and select Nike Basketball retailers starting 1 May 2025.
