Minimal Textured Tonal Sneakers

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Slam Jam and Nike Present the New Air Force 1 Low SP Shoe

— October 20, 2022 — Fashion
Slam Jam works in collaboration with Nike on the newest iteration of the signature Air Force 1 Low SP sneaker model for the season. The timeless new look takes the iconic silhouette as the base foundation and details it with new accents in the form of two tonal options.

It gets a simplistic black or white colorway palette and is detailed with a custom perforated toe box to add more breathability to the shoe. Additional details include the mesh panel at the mid-section and slight textural updates to add some contrast against the minimal look. The tongue tab of the respective colorways is done in a sleek finish and the Swoosh along the sides is designed with a tonal look.
