Nike Air Force 1 Low SP Slam Jam Black – DX5590-001
WHY IS IT CHEAP? Read me?
Founded by Luca Benini back in 1989, Slam Jam is much more than just a retailer. Over the course of the last decade, they’ve teamed up with a variety of sneaker brands, such as Vans, New Balance, Salomon, and, of course, Nike. And following their Dunk High collaboration in 2020, Benini and team are once again joining the Swoosh, this time in honor of the Air Force 1’s 40th Anniversary. Similar to their prior work with the brand, Slam Jam’s take on the Air Force 1 is akin to chop and screw. Prepared in both a black and white colorway, the collaboration adds and remixes the classic’s core construction. Alongside replacing the mid-panel with mesh — a detail not unlike the shoe’s original appearance in 1982 — they’ve tweaked the design’s perforated toe box, heel tab, and lace unit. In order, the perforations have been rearranged in the shape of the Slam Jam logo, the rear-placed “Nike Air” has been flipped upside-down, and the laces have been given an additional, intertwined set of strings.
If you’re a sneaker person you’ll appreciate the build quality on these. Clean lines, solid construction, comfortable insole. Definitely picking up another pair soon.
Rare to find a shoe that’s both this comfortable and this stylish. These check both boxes easily. Will definitely be ordering again.
Came in fast and looks just like the photos. Really happy with it — quality feels solid overall. Laces could be a bit thicker but nothing major. Would buy again.
From the packaging to the product itself, everything was excellent. Fit is true to size, comfort is 10/10, and the style is hard to beat. Highly recommend.
Received everything just as shown — shoes, dust bag, all there. No complaints on the packaging. Fits true to size and the all-black colorway looks sharp in person. Worth it.
