The Nike Ja 3 "Garden" Just Restocked Online

Long before the Memphis Grizzlies traded Ja Morant to the Portland Trail Blazers, he debuted the Nike Ja 3 "Welcome to the Garden" colorway against the New York Knicks at Madison Square Garden in November 2025. Nike shock-dropped a version of that player-exclusive shoe in July 2026, which sold out quickly.

With Morant's fourth signature sneaker launching since then, we assumed that was the last of the rare colorway. Luckily for athletes and fans who missed the shock drop, the sneakers have just restocked online at one retailer. Below is a detailed breakdown of everything shoppers must know.

Colorway Details

The "Garden" colorway shows love to the Statue of Liberty with a Malachite upper. The aggressive claw marks wrap up the shoe in black, while the Nike and Ja branding come together in a white spray-paint effect on the lateral sides.

The insoles are blue and orange, referencing the regular season debut against the Knicks. It is worth noting that the general-release colorway does not have the New York City Parks and Recreation leaf logo. Instead, ZoomX branding appears on the midsole.

The Nike Ja 3 was a fan favorite thanks to its bold aesthetic. However, hoopers had mixed opinions on the shoe. Issues with stability and comfort caused complaints online, including from rapper 2 Chainz. Despite its issues, the model still had respectable performance technology.

Tech specs for the Nike Ja 3 include a full-length Hybrid ZoomX foam. Padded ankle collars and a foam sockliner offer step-in comfort. Meanwhile, a traction pattern with all-over mini Ja logos worked well on the hardwood. Lastly, the mesh upper is breathable and well-ventilated.
