WNBA Star A’ja Wilson Makes Splash With Nike A’One
She became the first player to score 1,000 points in a single season. Shares the single-game record for points at 53 with Liz Cambage. And she also helped contribute to a Guinness World Record: most wins by a Women’s National Basketball Association (WNBA) team in a single season (34), achieved by the Las Vegas Aces (USA) in 2023. Now she is shining just as bright off the court. This week, WNBA star A’ja Wilson makes quite the splash with her pink Nike A’One.
Wilson’s deal with Nike includes not just stylish sneakers, but clothing. Items consist of gym shorts, tee shirts and oversized cropped hoodies. All available in her favorite color, pink.
However, it is her shoe release that is garnering much attention. Wilson is just the 13th woman to have a signature shoe. Therefore, her success could help to widen this opening door for female athletes in the future.
Nonetheless, A’ja is very proud of her new shoe design. Confident that it helps up her game and will enhance the performance of others. She says,
“The A’One is meant to go the distance, taking control from the jump and dominating the floor on every play. 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, delivering exactly what I need to push my performance and inspiring the next generation to give it their all on every play.
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. My signature shoe is everything I need, engineered for my game and my style — and built to motivate the next generation to go big.”

Yes, the engineering of these shoes are worth noting. Wilson’s Nike A’Ones are not some overnight rush job. A quick cash grab for one of the best players in the league. No, this particular sneaker took an entire two years of design and production to bring it to life. It is well-constructed and thoroughly formulated as well as executed.
For these reasons and more Nike is also excited for this drop. Regarding the A’Ones, the iconic brand states,
“This silhouette delivers the ultimate blend of comfort and versatility, engineered to give hoopers everything they need — cushioning, traction, fit and support. The Cushlon ST2 foam works with a firmer base to deliver explosive responsiveness and smooth, cushioned landings, allowing you to stay ready for every play. A reimagined traction pattern lets you cut, pivot, and move side to side with precision. While the supportive insole and breathable mesh upper lock you in for unstoppable, dynamic movement.”
Wilson’s pink shoes retail for $110 for adults and $90 for kids. And are available now. How are they doing in terms of sales? According to USA Today the kicks sold out of initial stock in mere minutes.
Missed out? No worries. Via Instagram A’ja reveals, “This morning was wild! If you missed the A’One, don’t worry. We’re dropping again Thursday at Nike stores and other spots everywhere. I do this for the real ones, always.”
