No amount of words can describe how big a season A’ja Wilson had in 2025! It’s definitely going down as one of the best campaigns in the Las Vegas Aces’ history books. Wilson, who led the franchise to their third championship title not too long ago, while claiming her fourth MVP award, her reign isn’t confined to the court, as Nike has just dropped a significant piece of news celebrating her incredible season.

The sports apparel giant has unveiled a new edition of her signature sneaker, the A’ja Wilson Nike A’One “Royal Flame.” Launching on November 6, 2025, the latest iteration features a striking Bright Crimson/Pink Foam colorway and is available in both adult and kids’ sizes at $115.

According to Nike, the design mirrors Wilson’s journey, as next to these shoes on their website, they stated, “Royalty reigns inside and out of A’ja. And while the red doesn’t signify red, she’s still lit. This special design ranges from deep crimson to bright red in a rising gradient that mirrors A’ja’s evolution: from grounded in grit to glowing with greatness. A pink foam Swoosh logo and TPU ring sit beneath the heat – a soft flex in a storm of pressure.”

While initially released in May 2025, these shoes are now available in their latest colorway. The A’One first drew inspiration from a pearl necklace gifted to A’ja Wilson by her grandmother, symbolizing strength and elegance. Within merely five minutes of launching, the shoes were completely sold out!

When they were launched, in an interview with Nike, Wilson expressed her excitement and said, “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.”

Nike Expert Footwear and Apparel Designer Josanna Torrocha had to study Wilson’s movement, energy, and presence to create a unique “A” that represents her first initial. The sparkling diamond shape paid homage to her nickname, ‘diamond in the rough,’ and the small “1” celebrates her A’One Collection and her top spot in the W. With the Royal Flame out in the market, fans have the chance to re-witness her historic year and carry a part of her legacy with them.

A’ja Wilson reveals why the 2025 WNBA championship was the most special

The Las Vegas Aces secured their third championship title after a dominating run over the Phoenix Mercury in the Finals. A’ja Wilson was the centerpiece of that system, leading her team with an average of 23.4 points, 10.2 rebounds, 3.1 assists, and 1.6 steals per game. While the Wilson-led Aces won back-to-back championship titles in 2022 and ‘23, this year was different, and it wasn’t just because of Wilson and Bam Adebayo’s heartfelt celebration.

During a recent appearance on The Jennifer Hudson Show, A’ja Wilson branded this past season her favorite title win, stating, “No one expected us to do it. And what better way of, like, ‘na-na, na-na, boo-boo’ than to win it?” 

A’ja Wilson’s standout performances in the Finals, including her super-clutch, unforgettable game-winning shot in the dying seconds of Game 3 and a 31-point, nine-rebound effort in Game 4 against the Mercury, are a testament to why she is one of the greatest, and it’s safe to say the ‘Royal Flame’ is well-deserved!
