This one makes me smile. I’ve been a Jurassic Park fan since the first film — the storytelling, the tension, dinosaurs on the big screen still hitting decades later. The Nike Ja 3 “Anthracite” pulls its palette straight from the iconic logo — yellow-to-black gradient across the upper, bold red Swoosh branding — and commits to the theme without looking like a costume. The packaging goes further: an amber keychain inspired by the DNA-preserving resin from the film and a box mimicking the park’s dino cages. With over $10 billion at the box office and surprisingly few sneaker collaborations tied to the franchise, this three-colorway Ja 3 pack feels like an event.

Is the Nike Ja 3 Comfortable? Here’s What Reviewers Say
The Ja 3 has earned strong reviews, but fit is where you need to pay attention. WearTesters called it an early shoe-of-the-year candidate, praising the dual-layer ZoomX cushioning as a major upgrade over the first two Ja models — smooth, responsive, and stable inside its rubber cupsole cage. Traction is elite indoors thanks to soft, pliable rubber patterned with mini Ja logos. The catch: these run narrow. Wide footers should go half a size up, and the mesh upper needs a few sessions to break in. For outdoor play, the soft rubber wears fast — keep these on hardwood. The “Max Volume” colorway showed the silhouette could handle bold storytelling — Jurassic Park gives it a story worth telling.
Life finds a way — and apparently so does a good movie collab at $135.
