Slam Jam's Latest Editorial Is a Powerful '90s Throwback
Retailers need to do a lot these days to stand out. Some look to wild sales, others to competitions. Slam Jam goes above and beyond the usual standards, producing some of the best editorials in the game — we’re not just talking retailers, Slam Jam editorials are better than most mags out there. The latest editorial is one of our favorites yet, turning the clock back to the iconic styles of '90s and '00s hip-hop.
Whether it’s low-slung pants and visible underwear or big puffers and long shorts, each of these looks will be a big throwback for anyone who grew up around the likes of Destiny’s Child, TLC, Nelly, and more.
But don’t be fooled, while the styling might look like it’s straight from the ‘90s, the clothes are all recent-season hits that you can shop now at Slam Jam. From Margiela to A-COLD-WALL*, Martine Rose, and more labels defining the cultural zeitgeist right now, this Slam Jam editorial is ticking every box for us.
Be sure to check out the full editorial at Slam Jam and shop some of our favorite pieces from the shoot below.
