With the 2025-26 NBA regular season coming to a close, a number of players are making decisions about next season. One of those players is Ja Morant of the Memphis Grizzlies. Although he’s the team’s star player, his future is undecided — despite having one of the most popular signature sneakers in basketball. In fact, they’re so popular, Nike is releasing new colorways for the Ja 3 signature shoes to celebrate his favorite movie, “Jurassic Park.”
Available for $135 on nike.com, the Nike Ja 3 sneakers pay homage to “Jurassic Park” with two styles, “Explorer,” designed to look like the Ford Explorer EXP 04 tour vehicles from the movie, and “Raptor,” made to look like Velociraptors. The new signature shoes drop on Friday, Apr. 10, at 10 a.m. ET/7 a.m. PT.
The new sneakers are light and tough with aggressive lines throughout the design that’s style for casual use or play on the hardwood. The uppers are made with a blend of high-quality real and synthetic leather for durability and structure, while their midsoles feature Nike ZoomX foam cushioning for bounce, travel and responsiveness on the court.
These Nike Ja 3 “Jurassic Park” sneakers come in two colorways, “Explorer,” which is green spark, university red, dynamic yellow and black, and “Raptor,” which is anthracite, yellow ochre and bright crimson.
Both shoes come in a shoebox that’s designed like a Raptor cage, while both also come with a keychain that’s made to look like amber with Ja Morant’s “JA” logo — instead of a fossilized mosquito inside.
