Nike and Swarovski are back together, and this time they’ve turned Ja Morant’s third signature into a full-blown luxury spectacle: the Swarovski x Nike Ja 3 ‘Bling’. If you thought previous Ja releases pushed the envelope, this iteration practically bends it – integrating premium materials, serious sparkle, and collectible extras into a silhouette built for impact both on- and off-court.
Beyond the crystal-covered detailing, the Swarovski x Nike Ja 3 is set to arrive with removable grill accessories, giving the shoe an extra layer of customisable personality.
Scheduled for release on February 13, 2026, via Nike SNKRS and select retailers, the Swarovski x Nike Ja 3 ‘Bling’ is expected to retail for around $235 and shapes up as one of the most talked-about Ja drops of the season.
As always, keep it locked to Sneaker Freaker for updates.
Nike’s latest statement in the Ja Morant signature line is unapologetically extra – and we’re here for it. The Swarovski x Nike Ja 3 ‘Bling’ takes the Grizzlies star’s third sig with Nike and turns it into something that’ll make your eyes gush. Drawing directly from early previews shared by Morant himself on social platforms, this Ja 3 is built around a bold crystal-clad motif that elevates the silhouette into luxury territory while still keeping its basketball genealogy intact.
What sets this iteration apart is the way Swarovski’s crystals are integrated into the design. Rather than subtle accents, the oversized lateral Swoosh and matching ‘A’ – which form the signature ‘JA’ graphic first introduced on this model – are fully encrusted in stones, creating a shimmering focal point that catches the light from every angle.
Nike also depart from the typical Ja 3 build, swapping the standard mesh and TPU blend for a full-leather upper with embossed detailing, giving the model a more refined, premium feel. Light blue branding and an icy, semi-translucent midsole complete the look, balancing flash with composure.
In the context of the broader Ja Morant signature line, the Nike Ja 3 marked a significant evolution when it debuted. Built to mirror Morant’s explosive, improvisational style of play, the silhouette introduced a sharper, more sculptural profile than its predecessors, anchored by responsive cushioning and a lightweight build tuned for quick cuts and high-energy movement.
Expected to release on February 13, the Swarovski x Nike Ja 3 ‘Bling’ carries a retail price of around $235 and will drop through Nike Basketball retailers and Nike.com.
