Green Spark/University Red/Dynamic Yellow/Black

Lemon Venom/Light Green Spark/Pink Beam/Light Photo Blue

When Ja is soaring for a pterodactyl swat or ripping down the rim like a T. rex, hold on to your butts. This special Ja 3 collaboration with Jurassic Park finds a way with one of Ja's favourite flicks and the rugged multicoloured rig that rumbled through the luscious green jungles. The JA 3 is light, tough and a game-changer with full-length Hybrid ZoomX foam. "ZoomX is crazy responsive", Ja says. "I call it that jet fuel". We call it bad news for his defenders.

When Ja is soaring for a pterodactyl swat or ripping down the rim like a T. rex, hold on to your butts.

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 all-over 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.

More benefits

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.

"I'm gonna run you over when I come back down!"

I bought my oldest son who is 12, the "Explorer" Yellow and Green. Ja 3's in a size 9.5 from Dick's Sporting Goods. My other son who is 10 wanted a pair but they had no Jurassic Park editions in the smaller sizes bellow 7. So I had to order these "Raptors" on the Nike App. Only available in size 5, and still priced as Men, not Big Kids. Felt like I had to overpay, honestly. At least they arrived quickly but the fit tight on his feet. So I used a Shoe Stretcher I ordered on Amazon. My son is super happy and will put them on just to walk around in the house, styling and profiling. They are SPECTACULAR! But sadly, I can't afford to buy another pair for myself.
LOVEEEEE

my review is for the Ja 3 Raptor variant (even as the invite to review recognises this but then shows the Cloud Island variant)... I saw these on the site, ummed and arred, such fond memories of Jurassic Park (who doesnt?) but not a big Basketball fan and havent played since I was a kid. So I bought them purely for the look - and so glad I did. These are just amazing to look at - 10/10 for the packaging and presentation, just utterley lush all round!!
