Ross Dwyer Esteemed magazine SLAM is known for their thoughtful pieces and crisp reporting on the game of basketball, but that’s not all they do. SLAM is all about hoops culture as well as the game itself, and their yearly SLAM Jordans issue touches both on new Jumpman releases and the stories behind the line’s classic hoops footwear. Now, they’ve readied a special issue that’s sure to delight sneakerheads and Michael jordan photo fans alike — one that’s focused entirely on the Air jordan photo 1. Arguably the most important sneaker of all time, the history, design inspiration, and engrossing tales behind the AJ1 are the stuff of legend, and now they’re all in one place. With everything from classic photos and quintessential stories to interviews with the influencers and designers who are leading the Air jordan photo 1 in a new direction today like Virgil Abloh and Nigel Sylvester, there’s something here for Jumpman fans both new and old. The magazine is available at slamonline.com now for $11.99 USD, so be sure to grab a copy for the most interesting history lesson you’ll have all year.
