Nike Ja 4 “Martin – Boo’s In The House”

This is the exact sort of design reference sneaker fans geek out over, and an exceptionally well executed one at that. Ja Morant’s Nike Ja 4 is approaching Halloween with a brand new style inspired by ’90s sitcom “Martin,” specifically the “Boo’s In The House” episode from Season 5. A new social media “leak” by the man himself unveils exactly what to expect.

Drawing directly from Martin’s very ’70s-coded Ike Turner costume, the Ja 4 here takes on an eccentric combination of red, black, and white florals across the upper. The midfoot shank and outsole, meanwhile, both match Martin’s pants in black. The costume theme extends to the Swooshes, rendered in metallic silver, and carries through to a removable red bow and a bedazzled circular Ja logo accessory.

No release date for the Nike Ja 4 “Martin” aka “Halloween” has been announced as of this writing, but logic would suggest a drop on or around October 31st. Check out detailed images below and visit our Sneaker Release Dates page to browse more upcoming basketball shoes.

Speaking of which, the Nike Caitlin 1 hits retail tomorrow.
