Nike x Slam Jam Air Force 1

The union of two realities

By

Nike to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the Air Force 1 model, decided to collaborate with Slam Jam, a reality created by Luca Benini who in the 80s traveled from Milan to New York and immediately understood that the two cities could be combined. 

The new Slam Jam x Nike AF 1 combines the social and cultural context of New York and Milan mixing different elements but that blend together creating something magical.

The artistic direction is entrusted to Julian Klincewicz, a director, artist, photographer and musician who lives in Los Angeles and who for this collaboration has created portraits and films related to the city of Milan. 

 This model of AF 1 is available in two colors: white and black. Features suede inserts on the heel and swoosh, extra eyelets and a double lacing. The writing Nike Air reversed reiterates the concept conceived by Slam Jam: “so different, so similar”. Another change we see is the variation of the holes that recreate the inverted A on the toe.
