Jordan's LS Slide Combines Utilitarian Stash Pockets With Solarsoft Comfort
The heel can also be removed for a customized fit and style.
Stash pockets are nothing new, having appeared on Nike Benassi sandals way back in 2018 and even on a pair of New Balance X-Racers more recently, but what is new is this pair of Jordan Brand LS Slides.
Served in “Black/Ghost Green/Black/White,” the slides put the function of the stash pocket right at the focal point of its design. The adjustable foldover strap offers much more than what initially meets the eye, as it’s fitted with velcro for the stash pocket to secure on to and is complete with ventilation on the medial side, as well as a removable heel strap that allows you to customize the fit — and therefore the look — of your pair.
It’s unknown whether the heel section can be stored in the stash pocket, but given the size of the pouch, it might not be a stretch of the imagination to assume this is where it’s kept. Rounding out the LS Slide is its sole unit, which comprises a base made from molded Solarsoft foam (forming the footbed), and an outsole finished with grippy grooves and Jumpman iconography.
Take a look at the Jordan LS Slide above, and pick up a pair now from Nike’s regional Japanese website for ¥8,800 JPY (approx. $80 USD).
In related news, Burberry has also just dropped a pair of summer-ready slides.
