Nike has announced the official release date of A’ Ja Wilson’s first signature sneaker. 

The Las Vegas Aces superstar and the legendary have introduced the world to the “A’One” in the inaugural “Pink A’ura” colorway.

In a statement, the two-time WNBA MVP expressed her excitement about the highly-anticipated collection.

“If you think you’ve seen my best, think again. We worked for over two years to create the Nike A’One to help me redefine the limits of greatness and advance the game to another level,” Wilson said. “My signature shoe is worth the wait — engineered for my game and my style and built to motivate the next generation to go big. Just wait to see what we do with it.”

“The A’One is meant to go the distance, taking control from the jump and dominating the floor on every play,” she continued. “From the beginning, we designed the shoe to both support my game and to provide young hoopers a tool to help them level up. The A’One aces that assignment, and we took the time to really get it right in order to deliver exactly what I need to push my performance and inspire the next generation to give it their all on every play.”

The Nike “A’One” comes with a breathable low-cut mesh upper and has the signature Swoosh logo on the sides. Additionally, Wilson’s logo is embroidered on the tongue and her first name is stamped on the heel of the silhouette. The eye-catching sneaker is designed with the Cushlon ST2 foam in the midsole that’s built for you to play your best on the court and to look your best off it.

“When athletes wear my shoe or any of the pieces from my collection, I want them to feel the power behind that logo: the power to dream big, then put in the work — in style and confidence,” Wilson said.

Along with the sneakers, Wilson’s collection includes Calm slide and a matching apparel collection in May.

In addition to Wilsion’s line, the brand recently released the Nike 24.7 apparel collection that “captures a standard of performance, confidence, and self-expression that empowers you to be your best self.’
