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 favorite flicks and the rugged multicolored 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. This special Ja 3 collaboration with Jurassic Park finds a way with one of Ja’s favorite flicks and the rugged multicolored 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.
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.
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.
The lightweight, durable upper provides a canvas for Ja's unique style of play and the stability he needs to feel shifty.
"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.
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.

They look great, but the fabric quality seems disappointing. I only used them once for less than two hours, and they already ripped. I’m concerned about using them again because they seem very fragile and could get damaged even during normal play.
OH YAAAH!

Fantastic shoe overall. Great colors and great fit. Supreme grip and traction. The staggered water condensation beads add a really cool addition to an already awesome shoe!

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.

Full-length Hybrid ZoomX foam brings ultra-responsive cushioning for lightweight spring and speed.
The tuned, zoned traction helps you load up and take off to the rim.
A foam sockliner sits on top of the ZoomX midsole so you can land softly after launching.
