The Nike Ja 2 Nightmare is designed to provide responsive support for quick turns and a bouncy feel in the sole. This model upgrades the Nike Ja 1 with extra padding at the ankles and a characteristic waterfall collar lining. The 'Nightmare' colorway features a shiny red upper with contrasting black swathes that give a racing stripes effect. The under-sole traction pattern is modeled on the lorry tires that Ja trained with as a youngster. Experts praise this new version for its visual appeal and underlying technology, including a sidewall guardrail and a dynamic ankle sleeve for optimal on-court performance. Released on October 25, 2024, the Nike Ja 2 Nightmare retailed at $120.
