Men's Nike Ja 3 "Daybreak" Basketball Shoes

1005-HF2793-DB

When the first light cuts though the early morning darkness, Ja’s already been on the court perfecting his craft. His work ethic is as reliable as the sun rising and setting. “Daybreak” keeps that same energy, taking its cues from the dawn that signals it’s go time.
More Zoom. More Boom.
Full-length Hybrid ZoomX foam gives Ja Nike's highest energy return. "It's that extra boost when I'm already moving fast," Ja says.
Put Them on Notice
Ja knows the Ja 3's tuned, zoned outsole gives him an edge. "With this grip I can break defenders off any time I want," Ja says. The traction pattern features allover mini Ja logos, so he can cook his opponents and leave his stamp on the game.
Built Tough for 12
The lightweight, durable upper provides a canvas for Ja's unique style of play and the stability he needs to feel shifty.
What's New?
"The Ja 2 was about control—locking in," Ja says. "The Ja 3? It's freedom. More bounce, more energy, more movement." The combination of the full-length Hybrid ZoomX foam and the traction pattern helps Ja raise his game.
Ja Dropping Design
When Ja sat down with our designers, his message was clear. "I told 'em, 'Don't be scared. Push it,'" Ja says. The result? The Ja Swoosh logo—a vertical Swoosh logo next to a graffiti-sprayed "A"—and grimy scratch marks make a groundbreaker that's ready for the bright lights.
Foam sockliner on top of full-length Hybrid ZoomX foam has Ja feeling like he's on clouds with every move.
Padded collar adds cushioning.
