Having seen its official release via the collaborating store Slam Jam on Saturday, September 20th, here’s an in-depth look at the Italian boutique’s very first Air Force 1 effort with Nike. Beyond the simple make-ups that adorn the four colorways are various subtle details. The often smooth properties of patent leather undergo a special process to create a wrinkled effect. As the leather wraps around the midsole, the heel includes Slam Jam branding. Two little known inclusions are the screw-on lace aglets and the combination stainless steel and leather keychain. Four colorways are available and will hit select Nike retailers.
