TLDR: On 2 May 2025, the Nike Ja 2 ‘Scratch’ will be released in an eye-catching Rapid Teal colourway. With a scratch design and Memphis Grizzlies vibes, this signature sneaker from Ja Morant is not only a sporty statement, but also a piece of basketball culture. The price is €125. The ‘Scratch’ series from Ja Morant enters the next round. After the celebrated Ja 1 ‘Scratch’ and the limited edition Ja 2 ‘Black Label’, the claw motif now returns on the regular Nike Ja 2 - this time with sewn-on overlays instead of punched-out ones, which makes the look more suitable for everyday use.
The colour of the upper material in ‘Rapid Teal’ is reminiscent of the classic Memphis Grizzlies jerseys. Bold accents in University Red on the Swoosh and Ale Brown on the tongue logo give the design visual depth. Particularly striking: the black claw overlays that run from the upper to the white midsole - a symbol of Ja Morant's aggressive style of play.
Technically, the shoe remains at the highest level: Zoom cushioning under the foot ensures responsive performance, while the ‘12:AM’ lettering on the heel symbolises its constant readiness for action.
