In case you missed the news, breakdancing is sadly out of the spotlight just as quickly as it entered. Following an “all press is good press” showcase in Paris this Summer, the sport will be absent from the Los Angeles Games in 2028. Despite the IOC’s decisions, the Swoosh’s embrace of breakdancing, the Nike Jam, lives on.

Notably, the silhouette has been relatively scant after a duo of colorways landed during the games. This edition marks just the fifth edition we’ve seen so far, including the Futura collab that added high-heat energy around the model.

Perhaps the Cliver sensibilities on display with this “Metallic Silver” Nike Jam portend how it can shift from a sport-specific proposition to a broader lifestyle one. The titular chrome overlays, mesh foundation, and suede eye-stays align well with the trends that have propelled kicks like the Where can you buy the Nike Air Force 1, Vomero 5 and GEL-Kayano 14 Air Max 1 Pinnacles.

Only time will tell if that bet pays off, and all we can do is wait for more specific launch info on the Nike Jam “Metallic Silver.” Look for this pair hitting shelves as we close out 2024 — the typical women’s sizing and $120 retail price are expected.
